    I just had my VSG on 7/30, my desire is to be active, maybe athlete one day. I am up for the 30 day challenge. I plan to start slow, I have a walk pad for those rainy days or too hot, walking will be my choice. I do see the surgeon Tuesday, I will see if I’m cleared. Topics: How to develop an active routine when you haven’t exercised in years. Also, when do you start weight training? Maybe, just overall fitness goal plans. My personal goal, to become more flexible through stretching, etc, and weight training… not crazy stuff but as a 53 year old, I know the importance of building strength, another area I lack. Glad you took time off, but glad you are back!

    • @vsgathlete
      @vsgathlete 10 днів тому

      Congratulations!!!!🤗🎉 Omg, I’m so happy for youuuu! You WILL totally be an athlete! The 30 day challenge is on a slight pause because I recently fell, got a bruised sternum and concussion.🤕 Ugh. Anyhow, excellent job on your plan to use the walk pad when needed!👏 Love the topics! Thank you! It’s a bit challenging to think things through right now so I’ll start creating those when my head is less foggy.😵‍💫 As for flexibility, it is amazing how bendy we can become with stretching, basic yoga annnnd as the weight comes off. I was never able to bend forward because of my chonky tummy. No matter what, start slow and don’t push yourself too far. Your body is still healing and that takes time.🤗 Thank you so much for watching and looking forward to hearing about your updates!

      Actually I'm still in the in-between zone where I still have a decent amount of fat in my loose skin to lose. Tucked in pants at my new jobs gonna be weird.

    • @vsgathlete
      @vsgathlete 10 днів тому

      Samesies! My loose skin IS loose but there’s some fat still in it. Over time I became less judgy of my body because it is a work in progress. Tucked in pants will seem weird at first but think of the progress you’ve made!☺️ Maybe look into compression shorts to go under them in the meantime? ✨Sending (((hugs)))!✨

    Do you feel like you are getting enough nutrients that will keep you healthy as you age? Also does eating require lots of time…prep and eating…is it difficult to stay busy and eat enough?

    • @vsgathlete
      @vsgathlete 10 днів тому

      Yes, I feel like I’m getting enough nutrients. As a vegetarian, it seems like I have to do a little extra work/research when figuring out what to eat. But it hasn’t been terrible. No excessive meal preps or planning. I just started to build on the food items that work. High protein, low carb, and low sugar. From there, I have fun with what I eat by mixing and matching foods. My annual bloodwork has been great since the surgery too.🥳 So the little bit of research and listening to my body is working….along with the daily supplements!

    Exactly why I hate this surgery now I don’t feel like a regular person. I was 400 lbs and pre diabetic but wish I had my old stomach back because I’m over gas, having cold sweats because I ate too much soup and or up late and can’t sleep due to feeling hungry. Anywho I know it sounds like complaining but it feels like a nightmare I wish I would wake up and they say it wasn’t done and I know now it has scared me so much that I would change if I had my old stomach back but only one can dream.

      I’ve only vomited when I ate too much sugar. Which is “Dumping”. Other than that, no real issues. And I have always felt my bladder just fine.🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe reach out to your physician for a check up and help with those.👩‍⚕️

    I had my vsg surgery in February of this year 2024. I am adjusting. The weight didn't just fall all off like I was expecting it to. But it has been steadily going down. I am on medication for my bipolar depression and I have a sneaky suspicion that that is affecting my progress. Anyway I am proud of how far I've come. I went from my highest weight of 283, did the pre surgery diet and got down to about 266. And after surgery lost wieght very slow and now I am at 241 (June 2024). By the way I have a very short haircut myself, so I just wanna say I think you are a total rockstar and very pretty with your shaved head.

(Sorry for my bad english i am not a native english speaker) i also love how they cheered while you getting closer to the finish line. What an awesome video. I wanted to start running to but tbh ive no idea how without pulling something or whats the best terrain for it (i live in the hills) Also congrats to the finish!!❤🎉

    • @vsgathlete
      @vsgathlete 2 місяці тому

      Thank you!🎉 I sip water every 10-15 minutes then a mouthful of Electrolit every fourth time. It’s a quick sip while I’m on the move. I don’t stop running while drinking. Some people love trails/hiking. As of now, I prefer road running. Do what makes You happy.☺️ You can always start with a “Couch to 5k” training plan to see if you really enjoy it!🏃🏻‍♀️😅
