I am very excited to say that I am going to be going to the Biggest Loser Resort Fitness Ridge at Niagara, NY for 7 days between May13th-May 20th. I am very excited to go. I had my Sleeve surgery 5 months ago on NOV 7th 2011 and have just been in a stall for about 2 months. I have lost 57lbs since surgery and am very proud of it but I still have 50 more lbs to go. I am not going because I am in a stall I am going because I want to learn more about nutrition and exercise and how to incorporate this into my daily life. They say that they have many people that have had some form of bariatric surgery on the resort and can incorporate my amount of calories into this 7 hour per day work out routine. They put everyone on a 1200 calorie diet and you burn any where from 3500-6000 calories per day while there. I am just wanting some peoples input on this and how they think this is giong to work with me eating only 500-700 calories now on my own. 

I was thinking that eating more calories or drinking them in the form of Protein Shakes would probably be okay b/c of the amount of work out that I am going to be doing but I told them already that I probably wouldn't be able to even eat he small portions that they serve. The nutritionist on the Resort said that they will set up a daily calorie intake for me seeing that I am so fresh out from surgery.

I will be working with Ramon & Jessica contestants from last years Biggest Loser Season.. I am soo happy about this.. I'll take lots of pictures..

Anybody have any input on this or know anyone that has went to one of the resort weather it be the CA, Utah, one since they have had some type of Weight Loss surgery.

hehehe
I looked up your town on the map.  Java Center is really close to me!
I had surgery on 2/1/12
I just got back to work this past Monday due to complications.  I had kidney stones, gall stones and alot of trouble with the sleeve. 
I don't think I was as prepared as I could have been
I have only lost 44 pounds but hopefully soon I will have the energy to exercise etc.
I wish I could join you!!!

Yes I did tell them about the calorie restriction but I think they think I might fall out if I don't eat a certain amount of calories while i'm exercising 7 hours per day.. so we will see I am so excited..

The prices are a little exspensive but there is no price on me getting healthy and getting the knowledge I need to succeed with my sleeve.
It is going to cost a little over $2000 for the week that I am going to be there. If you stay more than 3 weeks it is a little cheaper per week. I will post a link so that you guys can go check on the website..

There isn't a whole lot on the Niagara location that I will be going to just b/c it will be just opening when I go. I will Blog everyday and take lots of pics and videos for you guys to see what I experience there..
