Wow! Glad ur alright!!! My drain was in two days, and yes that remove feel so strange.

Ok, i have a question, is that calorie level the plan grom you dr? Wow, i was on 800 a day during my loss phase, and still only eat like 1200-1400 in my maintainace phase and thats with me running 15-20 miles a week.

Good for you!! Way to go after your dream!! No doubt you can see something through. You have proven that already!

Fantastic!!!

Bwahahaha!!!!

Thats awesome!!! I would do another this weekend if i could!! So much fun!

Oh also, i didnt really "carb up" i ate like normal, i have found on my weekend runs hydration and some small bites of carb and Protein along the way keep me going well enough.

I worked all week on hydration, normally i run 10 mile every weekend and wear a camel pack so i dont worry about it because i can sip as i go an i put some shot blocks electrolite blocks in the pocket as well as a couple of the agave and Peanut Butter packets then every couple miles i eat a shot block and half way have some peanut butter. Works perfectly. But the Mudder is of course muddy!!! Lol so i didnt wear the pack. The morning of the race i ate a yogurt 3 hours before a protien bar 1 hour before and 20 oz of gatorade in the last hr leading up to the start. I carried one pack of shot blocks in a pocket and opened them at mile 5 hit every Water station and got in about 5 oz of water. I was dehydrated at the end but managed. If you do a marathon wear a camel pack! I am doing the OKC half april 29 and will have my camel pack with gatorade and shot block, peanut butter and a Protein bar.

Yes there are wires lol, but not so bad really. :-)

I completed my first Tough Mudder this past weekend!!! Woot! Never would i have imagined i would run a 12 mile obstacle course, finish it and love every minute of it!!

Holy shrinking diva's!!! What fabulous progress you have made! Just think it only gets better!!!

Omg you so need to tell your surgeon this. Even if u email him your post

Size 30's!!! without sucking in'nn *huge dorky grin with horribly embarrassing happy dance'

Ok, i have learned i am a goal person. I have been floundering since reaching goal. So i am moving on to physique goals. I am between 158-163 on most days. I want to add 15lbs of pure muscle. I know many say u cant really donthat with the sleeve. But i dont agree! I have soent the past two months getting my protien up to 125-135grm a day. I know i need to increase it to about 175-200 to really pack on muscle fast, however, I believe i can take a slower approach and get there. I thought i would begin keep track here so if others want to join me, or have advice/questions then maybe this phase of the journey can be helpful to others as well. :-) GodSpeed

Omg, i love to shop for clothing!!! All the options avalible to me now are just wonderful! To be able to have my own style not just the few options for fat guy clothes!!! Love love love it!!!!
