Gosh, I hope not! Since I'm old, I just don't heal well, which is why I'm still fighting this 10 months later. Cautionary tale: I tore it stretching! "Oh, I can go deeper on that stretch, NOT!"

I cancelled my gym membership in the month I had my surgery since I wasn't going to be able to exercise for 6 weeks after the surgery and I would be away for another 4 weeks and Christmas was coming up and didn't want to waste the money (month to month membership). I need to get back into the gym, but I've not been in months so I'm going back to complete novice stage. But I have been cycling so that's at least something. I want to make going to the gym a habit again.

I haven't renewed my membership yet because it will be too crowded with all they "new year, new me" types who use the gym in January for two weeks and then never again.

Not to make you jealous or anything @AmberFL but I went to the gym today 🤣

I was really looking forward to it after not having been for 2.5 weeks due to Christmas holidays so I can understand the frustration. It is worth it to be patient and take care of your new assets.

I am jealous! hahah!!!

I have another appointment on Tuesday to get more stitches removed. Its been a process, I had anchor stiches, drains, regular stiches haha all the things. But I am ready for a solid stair master workout, heck I would even settle for a stationary bike sesh which is my least favorite form of cardio. He mentioned that doing lower body and core as long as I wasnt putting so much strain on my upper body would be fine, he suggested hiking too. I am back at work today so already I am feeling better about my day. Such as having my meals prepped, tracking, drinking my Water and going to walk short distances today too. So heres to getting back on track!

      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.
