Yay. I am doing really well. I am down 24 pounds. I wish I had more energy but over all I'm happy with the way things are going. My Dr was Jose Rodriguez. How are you coming along?

24lbs is great! The energy will come back just takes a little time, its good to hear that you are happy with the rest of your recovery an nice to see a fellow ABQ sleever on here! I am coming along well I think lol. I have been dealing with some stall issues but that's normal. I am down 41lbs since surgery and 61 overall. The NSV are the best though clothes don't fit anymore an I'm wearing sizes I never would have imagined 6 months ago. Fixing to get into the gym in the next week or so hopefully so I can drop the rest an mainly tone up. Still lots of work to do but I'm looking forward to it now!

I was thinking of going to the gym soon too. We have one in the garage kinda but not much cardio stuff. What one are you going to go to? I was goingt to go to planet fitness so I can tan too. It sounds like you are doing great.

I'm gonna go down to Athlete Ready and talk to Jared. I have seen firsthand how he does things and the results. Figure if I'm going to spend money on a membership I may as well go with something I have seen work. I sorta feel like going to a planet fitness or something would be a waist versus getting real one on one training at a place I have seen work.

That sounds nice. I really only need the cardio machines and wanted to tan but that sounds good . I go everyday for a walk in the park with the dog but I'd like stairs and a bike for something different. We have all the weights I need here and I have been using them already.

I've just been walking since surgery. I know the gym is gonna be hard but I also know the results are gonna be worth it. He doesn't use just weights he incorporates plyometrics an helps make you stronger all around for the movements your body does playing sports or just in everyday life. I dunno how to explain it lol but I've seen it an the results in real time when he trained a softball team I helped out coaching.

Hi! Hoping you both see this. I'm from Rio Rancho and I have my surgery date for June 27th with Dr. Ryan Tyner. I'm pretty nervous but I came here and have found some really good information. How are you both doing?

Hi -- I live in Placitas and had surgery with Dr. Tyner on May 30. I'm two weeks out tomorrow and all is well -- tired, but very little pain and no complications. I certainly understand feeling nervous. I was a wreck right before the procedure, myself. I wish you all the best! Dr, Tyner is a wonderful surgeon and everyone at Sandoval Regional was top-notch.

I wish you all the best!

      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.
