aayers88 31 Posted February 5, 2013 That's so awesome! I'm going to the beach in August and my mini goal for then is to lose 75-100 pounds. I'm getting excited and nervous. What are you doing exercise wise? And how long were you off work or anything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simplysammi 134 Posted February 5, 2013 I do Zumba 2 to 3 times a week. That's about it for now. I'm a teacher and I pull kids from across the school. So I'm walking all day long! I did mine around Christmas break so. Didn't have to take time off. I went to the gym at 3 weeks. I haven't had any complications or pain at all. If it weren't for the weight loss if be worried if I even had it done. I feel bad for people that have complications but I think that's another good thing about getting it done young! Best decision I've ever made in my entire life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aayers88 31 Posted February 6, 2013 Oh ok that's cool! I've been trying to think what im gonna do. I have a bowflex in my basement so I was thinking of doing 30 minutes of that before work, then walking some during my lunch hour and then doing something for another 30 minutes or so after work. Idk what yet though. I'm hoping I have a smooth recovery like yours. My information was sent to the insurance company today so...more waiting! Ughh haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
