Love Gym life now



Recommended Posts

I had gastric bypass surgery on 1/24/17, and went back to the gym the second week after. I was sore and swollen, but I was more than ready to start losing the weight....plus I vpulndt stand to lay and sit around and only walk around my house. I started light, just walking the track at my local gym, everyday for at least 30 minutes a day. From there I have progressed to running a mile and half, 30 minutes of weight training, and swimming laps in the pool for an hour a day, 4 days a week. I have lost 50 lbs so far and 15 inches. My heaviest weight was 330, pre surgery weight was 274, and now I'm at 224. I'm feeling alive again. The problems I was having with my osteoarthritis have gone down drastically! I'm keeping up with my 3 kids, 2 of which are teenagers, and I'm loving life again! I have changed from one of those people that dreaded walking too long in a store to being one that looks forward to the gym days and hiking trails. I can't wait to see what summer brings!!

I keep trying to upload my pics but can't seem to figure out how to do it. Can anyone explain that please?

Keep up with good work... I try going 3 times a week and do 1 hr weight training + 1/2 hr cardio. Then 2 to 3 times spin class per week + 1/2 Legs... sometimes I only have time to go 4-5 times a week
