Biking

WORTH IT$6,850
I biked 20 miles on Saturday and 30 miles on Sunday. Minimal discomfort (much easier than running!). It maybe interesting for those of you trying to loose weight at the calorie burn you can achieve on a bike - approximately 800-1000 calories per hour (14-16 miles). Now that will help you shed a few pounds!

3rd Week from Surgery 16 Aug
weightchange12August 16, 2014
I am continuing to improve with some swelling and a bruise from the location of the Seroma on R Abd. I am still being cautious about returning to my full workout routine; however, i started running 3 miles, have completed abdominal exercises, and started lifting weights. I am still having some numbness, some pain around my chest and lower Abd, and swelling mainly around the lower abd.

Thx HEF. When is your husband's procedure? Did he try the instaslim shirts?

Hi weightchange 12. September 22nd is procedure. He didn't get the shirt but thanks for the information. I have kept him up to date with your progress and he is really excited with the thought that after years of working out that his love handles and stomach will hopefully be gone. He has rammed up his working out even more by getting a personal trainer before his operation. He has lost even more weight which is giving him a big boost. He will be only a few kilos off his ideal weight by the operation. I think he is going to be over the moon with the out come. Thanks so much for your post. It really gives men the confidence to go for it. HEF.

HEF,
That is great! Working out hard prior will certainly make the recovery and results A LOT Better! I biked 40 miles today and I feel really good. My wife is happy with the results. She wasn't sure I should have the procedure, but has finally agreed that it was worth the $$ and time. Please let me know how he is doing.

Thanks for sharing your story and before and after pics. I'm also 41 and over the last 4 years, I have lost 140 pounds. I'm down to the last 20 I want to lose and nothing is working. I'm considering liposuction and was curious as to how much in weight came off after surgery. Any feedback would be great.

Hi, congrats on loosing so much WEIGHT! Impressive!
Liposuction will not help you loose much weight (maybe 5-7 pounds), but it is excellent for body contouring. I personally lost 5 pounds. Most of the medical literature and research indicates that the best candidate is close to their ideal weight. You should be really proud of your accomplishment and I am confident you can loose the additional weight. For me, the liposuction has motivated me to work out and loose more weight. I hope you experience the same results.

I would also recommend that you go for a consult (it is free and it provides an opportunity for you to ask specific questions). I would ask the PS to provide you pictures of patients that they have done so you can develop expectations of the results.

Thanks so much for the information and advice. I'm going to make appointment for this month to investigate this more. I appreciate your help!
