Hi Annie, my daughters are 27 and 24 I also have a son 31....I need to go for psch. nutrient and blood work then have a follow up with my surgeon and he will set a date. It will be next year early I hope. I have a that just did it a few months ago and she lost already 54 pds. She told me the first 3 weeks is torture but after she said it was the best thing she did.

Topic: RE: Week of 11-14-/ How are we going to move our bodies this week?
Good morning everyone,
I won't be going to the gym again tonight. I have missed 1 1/2 week of going to the gym due to unforeseen cir****tances, and tonigth I am preparing to leave for vacation tomorrow until the 27th. I am feeling the lack of exercise.
I had my 3rd weigh in appt last nite and I still lost 6lbs, so I was very happy about that. I do believe it is because of being consistent @/the gym for me. I don't lose weight easily, so exercise is a must for me.
With all that said, while on vacation I will watch my diet and try to incorporate moving my body as much as possible.
What about you? what are your plans for today and the next week for moving your bodies.
Lets continue to encourage each other I will see you on the 27th.

How awesome. I'm so glad you have this opportunity. I can't wait to see it in print. This is a bright spot in the difficulty of the past months. Praying you are getting stronger and healing each day.

Hi Jazzy!
My plan this week is to get to the gym at least 3 days and do Leslie Sansone DVD 2 days before next Monday. Thanks for checking. I am going to be madly busy the next 3 weeks but I have to squeeze in my workouts somehow. It is what I do, right?
Have a good week!!

Good morning,
I hope all had a good weekend!
I am planning to go to the gym, to do maybe an upper body workout and ride the bike for 30mins. My lower back is giving me problems again so I'm a little uneasy about what I'm going to do.
What are your plans to move your body towards your weight loss goals?

Hi Cece, I'm glad you've come to Life-Starts. First I want to say I'm really sorry the loss of your husband. I can understand your daughter's fear. How old are your daughters? Being nervous is so so normal. My emotions were all over the place - fear, excitement, anxiety, knowing I was doing the right thing then the next feeling like I'm not. I was very afraid I might die. I even wrote letters to family & friends in the event I died. I figured I was slowly dieing with my obesity and related health issues.
This surgery is a giant power tool to get you down the road on weight loss for better health. Eventually the desire to eat comes back. For me, I know that for the rest of my life I will fight this monster. I must have good eating habits, exercise, & accountability. I had RNY 12-21-09. I've lost 96 pounds and feel better than I have for a long time. My diabetes & sleep apnea are gone. My confidence is better than in a very long time. I do believe that we can gain weight back if we go back to bad habits. For me I feel bad if I eat the wrong things which helps motivate. Exercise is my hardest thing to consistently do. I just keep working at it.
Is is okay if I pray for you and your daughters? Keep me posted on your journey. Do you have any idea about when your surgery will be?
Hugs,
Annie

Hi, I'm Cece I joined this website to get motivated for my gastric bypass surgery. I got approved and now doing all my testing. I have to say I am sooo nervous about doing it. I have 3 ladies I know gained almost their wt. back. I love to bake and of course eat it too. lol.... my daughters don't want me to have it. I lost my husband last month of stomach cancer , they are affraid that they are going to loose me. So that makes me think twice about this surgery. They tell me that I can loose it on my own, I have tried and keep gaining more back. Did anyone of you have problems with surgery or gained the wt. back ?
