Weight loss and excercise

[janel129 5]

So my surgery date was May 28, 2013. My pre surgery weight was 254, my current weight is 213! I'm excited about the 41 pound weight loss but I don't see a difference and I'm always hungry!!!! I'm still on a restricted diet and just literally got released to exercise but I have no energy to do it!!! Just looking for help and or advice!!!

I had my surgery on May 7th and I started working out a few weeks ago. I tried going back about 2 weeks after surgery because I was cleared and boy was that a mistake. I had to wait a while before I was able to do anything....even walking would take it out of me. I started taking my Vitamins regularly and increased my Protein (Premier Protein from costco has 30gms each which is a good amount). I would say just try a little at a time each day and soon you will be doing everything you ever wanted. I never thought that I would be using the elliptical but I have. I do that 3 days a week with weight training. I also do Water aerobics twice a week. On the weekends I usually hike somewhere on Saturdays and leave Sundays for rest is I choose. Your energy will come back soon but remember you had major surgery and it takes time for our bodies to heal. I hope this helps
