Panda 354 Posted September 22, 2012 Are you able to do some extended walking? Maybe in the evenings or early morning? That won't cost anything and walking fast and long can really burn those calories. Maybe at a mall? I do walk...and a stationary bike at home. I do an hour of cardio 5-6 days a week. I started the free memberships circuit to get some resistance training in for skin tightening. It really helps Sent from my Nexus S 4G using RNYTalk 1 berniec reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kmiller 146 Posted September 22, 2012 Panda, I totally feel your pain! My surgery was May 1 and I started out at 283.4. That was my highest weight 2 weeks before surgery. I have been yo-yoing between 212 and 210 for the last few weeks. I just don't seem to be able to get below that. I work with a trainer 3 times a week, in addition to my other exercise. I was told I wasn't eating enough, so I upped my calories big time and all I did was gain. I don't have any answers or even helpful suggestions, but I wanted you to know that you are not alone. I'm extremely afraid of failure and probably stress too much about it, but all we can do is to keep trying. 1 berniec reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cldroppleman 11 Posted September 28, 2012 I want to cry! I am so unhappy the scale never moves and I am only just shy if 2 mths. Here is my weight8-3 liquid diet 239 8-13 surgery day 230 9-21 today 212 It sounds good to say 27 lbs lost but....i guess i expected more. Is my expections wrong? Is this normal? Did anyone do the same? I'm moving very slow myself I have not got on the scale to do my weigh in yet but I'm at 41.2 I had rny on 6/6/12 I thought more weight would have come off by now but I queses slow is better then none and maybe less hanging skin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
