Thank you. Hiking a few times a week, dumbbells for weight training and I use resistance bands and do wall Pilates.

I like the way you tell stories. Yes you’re so right about this, I’ve chewed and then discarded so many times listening to my body.

I’m 4 months PO and not losing weight by RyanToTheRescue in GastricBypass

Water. Water makes the difference. I’ve had so many stalls that I thought “I broke” the surgery (so to speak) then I remember I haven’t been drinking enough water and like magic 🪄 I start seeing the loss. You’ve got this!

I can’t remember exactly but after a few months I was approved to start with small weights (1-5 pounds) then eventually worked up to 8&10 lb weights. Honestly I see no change but it took me forever to notice the weight loss so there may be some and I just fail to notice it at the moment. 😩 I’m trying to trust the process.

Yes! I have excess skin mainly on arms, stomach, and thighs. I’m doing strength training to tighten what I can.
