So has anyone done the t25 workout ? My surgeon has suggested to do this to get my last 15 lbs off. He said I need a really intense workout. Running and elptical are really just warm ups at this point. Any thoughts

T25 is a great program as are the other beach body programs (p90x, p90x2, p90x3 and insanity). Definitely dive into t25 if you have the dedication for it (think it is 5 days a week). The good part is it is only 25 min a day. Do make sure you have good knees as there will be a lot of jumping. You might also consider cross fit, "you are your own gym" DVD. Anything that is really intense will work to get those last pounds off. You will probably find yourself eating more calories, more Protein and more carbs. No worries; it will be needed to get through the intensity. Good luck!

I've been contemplating this for a month now for the same reason you stated. I love the fact that it's only 25min. so I think I'm going to give it a whirl. Good luck!

Sweet: how far out, post op are you? I was looking into those. I had found a site that reviewed several DVD's, including T25. I left a comment leaving my personal circumstance (then, 5 weeks post op), and he recommended just continuing to walk, maybe a few push ups here and there, then in the Fall, Power90 is supposed to come out.

I think the guy knows more about me that I do, because I tried exert myself a couple of times this week and just don't have the energy...

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
