6 weeks out

I'm 6+ weeks out and back to work. I've lost 36 lbs. The first month was really tough, but once I started introducing solid food, I started to feel so much better. Now the challenge is to get in exercise every day and up the protein to the desired levels. I really appreciated the pre-surgical support from this board. Linda

Hi Linda, 36 lbs is great, good job! I also have the challenge to get up and exercise everyday, but I have joined a gym now and they keep me motivated. I'm not doing anything big yet, I just started walking 30 minutes and will take it from there. Good luck to you! Vilmaris 1/16/2006
