 Yeah me too...I started worrying when I didn't hear anything like 3 or 4 days later. I see there is a number to her hospital but I don't know what kind of information we'd get from there.

I love Zumba lol

I got sucked in one night on the infomercial and so glad I did, it's so much fun! Helped me lose quite a bit of weight before surgery. 

I was at my doctors today and he said no Gym until week 6, but I can walk 10 minutes at a time 3x a day. I was pretty active before so it kinda bummed me out.....

But gotta run for now just ate some cottage cheese  and it's not agreeing with me LOLOL.....

Thanks for the info.

Topic: RE: finally on the loser's bench
i'm so happy for you and i'm really happy i didn't have a drain . . .

the dr. told me to walk, walk, walk. i am only going 2.5-2.7 mph i guess, not over 3 like i used to, and he did say i can do that. they told us not to lift more than 5 pounds, so i'm going to use a 5 pound weight in each hand (one at a time) to work on my strength - if i feel even the slightest tinge in my muscles of my belly, i back off. i'm not taking any chances. but the dr. does know. it's not like i'm doing my p90x videos, or zumba, or bench pressing, lol.

maybe you can ask him that? i don't know, i find that every dr is different, and so it just depends on who your dr. is.

anyway, i hope you are ok, and healing well . . . good luck!

 LOL I'm happy, I'm 8 days post op and jus got my drain out.  SOOOOO HAPPPPY lol

How did you get your doctor to clear exercise I am not allowed Gym for another 5 weeks because of the strain it puts on our stomach. I was told they punch through a couple of the muscles with Lap VSG so the muscles have a greater chance to strain if we work out too soon. 

Would love to konw! Cuz I miss my treadmill! lol

Topic: Anyone Heard From vivianaluv?
 I know she was having surgery on the 3rd of February and she was an avid poster but I haven't seen her on since her surgery. 

Just wondering if anyone know anything? I know it's a long shot but I thought I'd try for one of our fellow Februariers (lol if that's even a word)
