I am so bored at the gym so after my membership runs out I am going to start kickboxing. Has anyone lost weight from this workout. I mean I used to kill it at the gym twice a day and now I am so over going. lol

I hope you get some good responses. I am interested too...... There is an "i love kickboxing" place near me and it looks very interesting. workouts are with gloves and a bag,

Kickboxing is one of the best things you can do for weight loss, muscle building and strength. I've done it for a long time (before weight gain) and I loved it. I can't wait to get back to it!

Yes, it is a killer workout, lots of fun, practical and develops agility. Give yourself some grace as you relearn balance, it's tougher than you might think. Spend time learning to wrap your hands and wrists. It will prevent an injury (not that I'm bitter) ;-)

I love kickboxing! I used to go all the time. I miss it so much, I had to freeze my membership to my kickboxing gym at the beginning of November because I hurt my ankle and right now I can barely walk, let alone do kickboxing. As soon as my feet/ankle recovers I'll be going back. I started 3 months after I got my band and lost a good amount of weight before my band started failing. So yes it's a great workout

Oh yes! I can honestly say it is an awesome workout if your joints are up to it. I love beachbody turbo jam. Great abs and core workout not to mention great cardio.

      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.
