100 degrees in the shade...so where are you doing that important post op walking?



Recommended Posts

I'm in rural Georgia and am literally walking circles in my house...feel like a dork! Where do you go to walk?

The mall. I am in California but the mall doors are usually opened hours before the actual mall opens. And the air conditioning is running. The elderly people have already figured out this secret because it's usually just me and them at 7 or 8 in the morning :)

Go to the mall or try to get out early in the morning or late at night. Beat the heat of the day!

I'm use a "Walk at Home" dvd, so I can walk regardless of the weather. It's quick paced and incorporates enough movements to give you a good walking workout. You can also get the same videos on YouTube for free if you've got a little space in front of your computer to walk.

Mall is waaaaaay to far away for a daily walk....I'm in the sticks! I do have room in front of the smart tv to get on YouTube though...I'll give that a try!!

Check out dvd's by Leslie Sansone...they go all the way up to 7 miles I think. I am also in Georgia and those are what I do.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
