Burn Boot Camp



Recommended Posts

I wanted to share the best gym experience I have found for anyone looking to take their workouts to the next level.
About 4 months post op I wanted to increase from just cardio to something that would build strength etc. I am so lucky they had just opened a Burn Boot Camp in my area.

The concept is a 45 minute high intensity workout led by a trainer. The majority of classes are women only and they offer free child care at many. This community of women has pushed me and encouraged me and held me accountable. After my surgery I was having trouble finding friends who embraced a more active lifestyle and this group was my answer. My very first day I couldn’t even do half the work out but everyone embraced me just the same. You also have one on one sessions with the trainer to track measurements, get nutrition help etc.

They have locations nation wide and they are expanding so check to see if they are in your area. I consider this one of the best victories for me post surgery so I thought I would share my experience, in case anyone with out there is looking.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
