Recommended Posts

Okay so it turns out on top of the bronchitis..I have carpel tunnel in my right arm and also tendonitis in my ankle.

Sooo I have to get a wrist brace thingy..oh joy..and i have to wrap my ankle and get better every day shoes. Apparently my foot wraps a bit when i walk. Also I can do spin class but no step aerobics..no basketball..no tennis. Nothing that is turning or hard on the foot. Just glad I can keep exercising.

But yeah guys nothing is worse then being injured and not being able to work out so watch yourselfs and be careful. Mother has spoken..LOLLL

Glad everyone is doing great. JM I know your frustrations. You gotta really look at your nutrition. I swear if you just eat whole foods your going to be fine. Gotta really look at what your eating. I know thats what it is. Most personal trainers will tell you they would rather see you eat healthy then work out at all. Processed foods are the devil I tell you..lol

Feel better Di! I too have something wrong with my left quadricep. I think I may have pulled or strained it from spin class the other night. It totally sucks, I was going to go to the gym last night, but I couldn't even walk straight!

The funny thing is, I totally cleaned up my eating this week. Got rid of coffee and most dairy, and added a whole lot of fruits and veggies. I've eaten more fruits and veggies this week than I have in 3 months time! Its weird, but I'm not gonna let it bother me too much because I know I lost some weight this month. Going to the docs today so I'll get the official lost lbs from her today!

Reporting in.... 30 minutes elliptical, 30 minutes rowing machine, 1 hour pilates class. I'm feeling good. Can't believe I like to exercise. Who knew it would be like this?!

I went to a spin class last night and tonight is my fave step class of the week! Tomorrow is spin class at 5:30am and then I do a step class at 9am. I am trying to get exercise in this week bc next week I have to go to Europe for work and it is soo hard to exercise when traveling (jet lag, 12 hr plane rides, etc).

scales - I do weight daily, but only take my weight seriously on Wednesdays when I record it on my calendar, () I seem to weight less on Weds for some reason!) and now Sundays since thats what we record on our cute lil spread sheet.

I'm not going to make it to the gym tonight... so I walked down, then up 8 flights of stairs today at the hospital 3x. I'm slow, and exhausted, so it took me about 30 minutes total. That should count for cardio and resistance I think! Ha! Going up 8 flights is NOT easy! My thighs were bitching at me the whole time!

Okay, worked shoulders today for an hour and a half. Wasn't into it, which has never happened before. Weird...didn't like the feeling...wonder what's up with me? I hope it's just a 24-hour bug! LOL Seriously, it's not funny. I'm so exhausted...maybe that's it.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
