10 days out workout



Recommended Posts

I'm 10 days out and I signed up for the gym today I have to start actually working out not just walking I feel I haven't lost the weight I was supposed to . people told me I lost weight from my stomach but not a lot but idk how much I lost because I don't have a scale with enough capacity but I'm going to the 2 week check up on Tuesday and they will tell me I know its probably too early for the gym but I need a get this done I'm tired of being huge .

Walking is good, keep it up, but please speak with your doctor at your follow up before doing anything to difficult. Better safe than sorry!

Hi - tomorrow I'll be 12 days post op and I have my first session with a personal trainer - so I am right there with you olsonjb! I am losing slowly, but I promised myself that I would commit to this transformation 100% and that does include exercise. They gym is actually a medically-supervised facility. A lot of people go there for cardiac rehab, after joint replacements, etc. They have some experience with bariatric clients. I went to Koles earlier to buy a sports bra - 56 years old and my first one. I feel so athletic :D. Good luck I guess to both of us - I am more nervous about the trainer than I was about the surgery!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
