9 Weeks Out Pics

Thanks for all the encouragement.  I thought I might try something different at the gym.  I gave up the yoga pants and XXL T shirt, and stepped out on a limb.  Compression shorts work wonders!  I started back at the gym and I was on my way to spin class.  I want to start Cross-Fit in a couple of weeks, but it is very very expensive. So until my budget can handle it, I will stick to my 30 month gym.  I am very interested in becoming a "Bariathlete".  My weight always held me back from participating in sports because I was afraid of looking stupid.  When I did play basketball my 9th grad year my uniform shorts did not fit so I had to buy my own shorts. I was so embarrased.  Bariathlete are post op patients who compete in different sports.

Good for you. Doing great!

You look awesome!! i am 13 weeks out and i have gained 9lbs of water weight. went to the dr and told me i have edema. ugh! he put me on a low dose med and in two weeks i have lost 5lbs. so once i lose the other 4lbs i hopefully will see a casual drop in lbs again. i kinda stalled and only lost 5lbs in 6 weeks at my 3 month post op appt. but i am assured getting thru this edema glitch i should eventually start losing again. 

Since the 26th of June I have dropped 15 pounds with the water pill and exercise. I wonder why we get edema.

Looking good!! :-D

Thank You!

Looking good!!
