When I started DDP Yoga, I hadn't either. I would say that this isn't traditional yoga, it really is more geared to upping your heart rate and helping with staying in a fat burning zone. The package I got was about 6 disc's and the very first one is an introduction to some common posing that will happen.

The next couple video's are where I spend most of my time, one is 20 minutes and the other I add to it (on occasion) is another 10 minutes.

To me, it seems like he's more there to explain how to make it work for you and not there to tell you how it has to be done. Which, after watching some other video's, was nice.

YouTube probably has some examples and the website is getting better and better. I haven't signed up for the subscription, but it's been lingering in the back of my mind for the recipes and additions workouts.

Pre-surgery, it helped me loose 30 pounds. But then Thanksgiving happened... and then Christmas... and then...

I still think you should go roller skating.

Roller Skating is Great Exercise but as a former Owner of a Rink Please Please Please be the UnCool Kid and wear wrist guards. Adults don't fall as well as kids and their bones are usually more brittle. Wrist and teeth were always the most common injuries, usually at no fault to the Adult but trying to avoid a reckless little one.

Oh absolutely... lol I had a few gnarly falls when I was a kid, there's no way I would trust myself as I learned as an adult I'm accident prone. hahaha

I gotta say dude you look awesome. Keep up the good work.

In regards to blading, even when I was a normal weight and in my teens I was always very hard on my blades. I tore them up rather quickly, but I was the same way to every pair of shoes I owned. Work hard play hard.

Since I now live in a winter city, ice skating is something I can't avoid.

Is there a contra dancing group in your area? They usually welcome newcomers, you definitely do NOT need to bring a partner, and it's great indoor fun.

      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.
