Default Hi guys Bernadette here

I had my RNY Lap on Jan 24, 2008 at Atlanta Medical Center by Dr Larry Hobson. I have lost 58 lbs so far. I am having my first stall, staying at the same weight for over a week now. Because of chronic pain I am not able to exercise as I should so I am always working on moving just a little bit more each day.... Somedays it is just too hard... Anyway I am 53 years old and live in the mountains of North Georgia. I am the proud mother of five beautiful children and have one grand-daughter and one due in August. Can't think of anything else to say right now. Bernadette to all

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Welcome to the board, thank you for joining us.
Congratulations on your wonderful weight loss.
Sorry to hear of your pain issues, but as you lose weight, I hope things will get better.
Even if your scale isn't moving, be sure to take measurements, when your scale isn't shedding numbers, your inches are.

((((((HUGS)))))) May your journey go well.

Thanks, I was not too worried about it, I figured it was pretty normal from all that I have read. I have not measured myself, so I will do that now and keep up with that too. I know clothes fit me better so there must be some inches lost. Thanks for the warm welcome

Welcome. I do daily walking as my form of exercise. I don't really have any joint problems, but I do realize others may have from years of obesity or other medical conditions. There are DVD's on what they call "chair exercises". These are primarily intended for geriatric people, but my nutrition class (prior to RNY surgery) had a presentation on these. You sit in a straight backed chair and perform these simple routines. You can actually work up a sweat with these, and I was surprised. This may help you at this stage in your post op recovery. They are available from many online sources (OH may even have them) or you can rent them from DVD rental stores.
