Slendertone Post-Op

by tanyajade 27th August 2010, 9:04 am

Good morning ladies,

I know it'll be a white before I can go back to the gym after my BA. So I'm wondering when it will be safe to use my Slendertone Ab belt post-op?

Thanks
Tan xxx

I think it does, not massively, but I think it does something.
I think it'd work better on you because you have less fat on your tummy than me, so it's get straight to your muscles.
Do you think yours helps? xxx

by natalia 27th August 2010, 9:19 am

yeah i do but like u say u gotta burn fat off your tum to see your muscles my fella says mine is really toned but not to me as its still got half inch fat on im on fat burning diet now bascially its a flat fat burning stomach diet wheir the weight just falls off your belly and not everywheir esle i so do not want to get skinny i luv my curves to much lol xxxx

OOH you're very dedicated!! You are tiny though!

That diet sounds good, although a lot of these diets aren't vegie friendly (I'm a vegie).. Are there any specific foods that I should eat a lot of to burn fat from my belly?
Are you taking any supplements or anything to help?

Thanks Natalia - that doesn't sound too different to how I was eating before my op.

About 3 weeks before my op I bascially decided to change my diet -- I actually downloaded an app for my I-phone called My Fitness Pal where you bascially add your details in and you add on a daily basis your excerise / food intake (including drinks) and it tells you how much fat you've consumed / how many caleries you've burnt off etc. I don't take it as gospal but it is good as a guide only.

Anyway, I did this for 3 weeks before my op and bascially ate the food you listed above and I lost 7lbs in 3wks.

Only problems is, I've put it all back on again and my stomach is HUGE again which I'm REALLY p!ssed off about as it was looking really good..... anyway, I did it before so i'll get it down again.....

I don't like cream soda so could I substitute for diet coke or is that a real no-no??

yep diet cokes fine so is zero coke and dr.pepper zero hun is fine to anything without sugar its a great diet only been on it a week now i work out hard 4 times a week bcause i kept eating high fatty stuff at weekend the fat wasnt burning off my stomach enough so i had to change way i ate i can see my muscles now but can still pinch half a inch which i hate so im sticking to this low sugar and low fat diet i know it works done it before and had amazing abs and a lot of weight loss in fat gone got 4 weeks till my birthday then i will have that day off to eat treats but i think i might nearly be their then as im working out 4 times a week for hour a hour doing cardio and ab work

I've heard of this before CJA2010, never really bothered about all those apps but think I'm gonna start! That weight loss is fab and if you've done it once you can do it again xx

by tanyajade 27th August 2010, 1:50 pm

Yeah I may look into that CJA, I'm a sucker for trying anything that promises to help me lose weight LOL! & well done on the weight loss, as kld said, you've done it once, you can do it again!

Nat-thank you for your detailed response, I definately need those pro-biotic yogs I get bloated all the time it's such a pain!

make sure its natural probotic hun otherwise your just putting sugar in your body and that will not help you lose weight

by tanyajade 27th August 2010, 2:27 pm

Thanks Nat, I always look at sugar content anyway because I'm insulin resistant xxxx

by MilliePig 28th August 2010, 11:31 am

Anyone read a book called 'Skinny Bitch' by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin??

Well worth a read and totally changes the way you think and about food and your diet. Basically, you will never diet again...if that makes sense?!

xx

by CJA2010 28th August 2010, 12:38 pm

Nope never read but will go and buy it off amazon now if you think it's worth it? Xx

by MilliePig 28th August 2010, 1:58 pm

I do definately recommend it, you just don't realise the effects of certain foods on your body x

by CJA2010 28th August 2010, 2:46 pm

Ok - just ordered it off Amazon -- I'll let you know what I think once i've read it! Thanks Millie. xx
