china's update

[china 1]

ok here is what has been going on with me, on 9-10-08 i went for my first consultation it was alright once i got weighted i learned i lost 2lbs. was happy with that. met with the nurse p she was very nice told me that all test were done but, i need a stress test done. then she informed me that i need to lose 39lbs before surgery. that was alright as i thought it would be 50 she said i have to come back to see the dr. 10-28-08 and to try and lose as much weight as possible so that the dr. can scheduale the surgery. i said that is 6wks from now. i asked if anyone had gotten it all in - in such a short time she said yes or they had come real close. so i went and got the south beach diet book and will start walking in the park its about 3miles. will do that at least 3x's a week, then going to the gym and get a membership and try and do the tredmill and eliptical, then i bought the south beach workout tape to do at home maybe 2x's a wk. i have already sat down and made out a menu for the wk. so im gonna give it my all and see what happens. i go back and see the dietion in 2wks.

so i would really like some infor on what you did and eat before you got band in order to lose the weight. dab i know that u have lost alot can you tell me some of the excerise that u did. i really want to get a date when i see the dr on oct. 28th.

i gotta move it, move it:thumbup:

Hey China!

I'm glad to see you over here as well! They told me to lose 50 lbs. before surgery, I lost 40, and they were REALLY excited about that. I mean, the NP was practically peeing herself. :thumbup: I barely exercised until the summer...but in a month I'd lost 28 by just sticking to South Beach. So if you're gonna exercise (it was the end of the school year for me and close to impossible), awesome! You're going to be FINE FINE FINE! :eek:

I'm going to start walking in the park after the first weekend in October, so I'll be sure to meet you!
