The truthful children in my class told me my butt was “still big, but it was sliding toward my knees!” Got to love first graders lol! So I bought a rowing machine from Amazon and turned my living room into a gym (already had an indoor bike and free weights). My 14 year old son told me, “It’s lower, but it doesn’t jiggle so much. It’s more round.” (It jiggled?) I think it’s a ‘work with what you’ve got kind of thing.’ And if you ever want to know unvarnished truth, a kid will tell it to you unrequested.

Google is your friend. Stacks of exercises to tone your glutes available with a simple search. It can also be helpful to get a short program at a gym or with a person trainer to find out the best workout for you & to ensure you’re doing them correctly & not risking potential injury. Then you can do them at home. Can be a little pricy but sometimes they offer deals.

You can pick up weights, resistance bands etc. pretty cheaply. I got my bands for $10 at Kmart in Australia.

Remember you won’t be able to do a lot for a few weeks while your healing & recovering from the surgery. Walking will be your friend for that first month or so.

The way we were taught is to walk across the floor on your butt, So hands and feet up in the air and off you go, one cheek then the other. My husband calls it butt scuttling. Lots of stairs are good too

      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.
