Hi I am looking to lose about 100 lbs and keep it off. I have hypothyroidism. Its made it difficult to lose weight. I just had my gallbladder removed. I was told I could walk and ride a bike to start off but to stay away from ab workouts for another week.

Welcome to the forum! Best of luck on your weight loss journey.
