I started out on the treadmill, then my hubby joined us up to a gym. I have found that I love the elliptical! It really gets my heart rate up and I like to jam to Pandora's 80's cardio channel to get moving. Losing weight keeps me motivated. Plus the awesome powerful feeling of finishing a great workout.

Hi Lapper32014

I thought I'd paste the link to a "banders exercise" thread that was started some time back. You might also choose to join us on that thread? :) http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/294850-banders-exercise/?hl=%20banders%20%20exercise

I bike and run. Started out walking on my treadmill years back....SLOWLY increasing over time. For me, it was finding something I enjoyed (cycling) and sticking to it. Days become weeks, weeks become months.....etc.

I do not exercise without my tunes. Pandora is a great option, and I have recently found a website called steadymixes.com It has some great workout mixes on it .....all are free!

Congrats on your treadmill workout! :)

I also listen to Pandora's 80's cardio as I work out on the elliptical !

I have been going to the gym since long before surgery. So now I've just started to expand my horizons by attending a number of classes offered there, including Spinning, Zumba, step aerobics and Body Pump. All targeting different exercise needs, cardio, endurance, weight training and toning. Plus they never get boring.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
