Thought I'd give a progress report on myself.Had my surgery Oct 10th and am down 60 pounds.Went for appt. last week and have lost 6 inches from waist and 7 from hips. I really can't believe how good I feel. I have no issues with any food and have not dumped yet and hope I never do. I'm trying to do better at getting my protein in.I have been exercising six day's a week and surprised I'm looking forward to it. I do treadmill,stepper and weights. I tried sit up's but they pulled stomach to much. Can anyone tell me when they were ok to do sit up's. I too can now be in the tall boot club. What a feeling when that zipper went over the calf. I don't post a whole lot but do read and keep up on everyone's progress. Thank you to everyone on here,it's great we can encourage each other with our up's and down's.

Glad all is going well. The boots were a great nsv for me as well. You should be able to start sit ups now. Just take them easy.

I thought that abdominal exercises were to wait for 6 months

About the boots!! Omg isn't that the best feeling ever! I have bought 2 pairs this winter, love them! Got me into wearing skinny jeans as well...something I NEVER expected to feel comfortable wearing. 2 NSV's in one.

Congrats to you!!!!
