By when can you start doing cross trainer or the epileptic trainer? I feel it's ones of the best workouts for shaping. I had my surgery on the 27th of sep... I'm tired of resting and want to start working out Xu I don't want any loose skin.

Yeah. It'll probably be another couple of weeks. When i was in the process people coming in for their 1 month post op visit were wondering if they would get the O.K to work out. Be careful. Don't rush things. You don't want to cause more harm than good.

My surgeon said not until you can eat at least 800 calories a day.

I was given the okay at 2 weeks post op, a few days ago. I was told that I can jog and do any classes that don't have any abrupt stopping or pulling, basically no boot camps. No lifting over 16 pounds.

I was cleared for the elliptical on day 8, watching to not engage my core. As usual, ever surgeon is different, so check with yours!

I had my surgery on 9/27 as well. Congrats! I asked my surgeon the same question. I was told I can work out (cardio, swim, walk) but no strength training and not to lift more than 15 lbs. hopefully I can after my next visit

      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.
