Finally got off my butt

Well my son finally drug me to the gym tonight, I could only do cardio because of my hernia but I rode the bike for about 30 minutes, and it felt really good to be moving, I also went to the store and got some more healthy food, and now I just have to learn what portions to have like I have poated before I have not seen my Surgeon or been back to cori since my surgery I was one of the stupid patience that thought the pouch would do all my work for me and now Im satuc at almost 6 months and only 60 pounds gone...but its time to get serious, Lisa mJ

Lisa, I thought I would post the link for "Marias" website...she has a lot of useful information and it is really organized. She also has other links on her website for you to check out. You may have already checked it out, but I thought It might help you out some just incase you haven't checked it out yet. Mandie http://www.theroadtothin.com/

Thanks for the support and the links to other sites Im going to check them all out..Lisa MJ

And here is Amy Williams profile. She was on MTV about her surgery and also has Lymphedema. She has some amazing stuff available through her profile. She includes the link to her website. Mandie http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/members/profile.php?N=W1029266563

Lisa, You are taking all the right steps. You just have to keep believing that you CAN and WILL work this tool! Just because you've lost a little slower, doesn't mean you will stop losing. Cut out the carbs and try to go to an Atkins type diet and see what happens. I bet the gym will help too! Remember, slow and steady wins the race! Love ya! HUGS Kimberly ps...any local support groups around there? Does your surgeon offer support groups? Do you go? Look into it if not. They really help!
