  1. Wow! We should all be proud of ourselves. I was so sore yesterday my legs were killing me, I went on a long walk today and am feeling better. I can't wait to go again this week
  2. So I took my 1st Body Pump class tonight and OMG my legs and arms are so exhausted... It hurts to go up stairs or to lift my arm...but don't mind ...its something I never would have done before and after class I even stayed and biked for 30 min.. I'm actually enjoying exercise crazy And before when I would bike or trendmill 30 min seemed so long today on my own it was like a breeze and I kept making myself do sprints. I have gotten into spin classes!

    I use it, I like it. It is a thicker drinkable yogurt. I have only tried strawberry flavor from Trader Joes. I mix 1 cup, 1 frozen banana and some ice for a smoothy. It does usually clean my system out....if u get the hint.... Overall though I like it and it is higher in protein and I disliked the powders.
  4. I would join the social club and meet up every now and then :)

    I have one, love it!
  6. Pizza Greasy food Super sweet stuff like frosting
  7. I am into smoothies these days. I use keifer which is like a drinkable yogurt. I buy it at trader joes and 1 cup has like 14 or 16 grms of protein i can't remember which. I use 1 cup of that with 1 frozen banana and a little ice.
  8. I started spin about 4 mth out and I love it. I was scared to go but after my first 2 classes I was in the groove. I took my class through my community rec center and so my instructor took time to show us what to do and explain things he says, there's a lingo. I only have 2 classes left but don't want to quit, so I think I am going to look into a gym....
  9. Sounds like u r ready I only stayed at the hospital for one night and what I really used was pants, after i was up and about I put loose pants on and was so happy. You also walk around so the pants come in handy. Also socks or slippers, and a hair clip and head band. I didn't take a shower at the hospital so my hair looked crazy and it helped me feel better to put it back. I could have stayed 2 nights and looking back maybe I should have, my first day and night home were the worst one, I was so nauseous and felt horrible...7mths out now and it is the best decision I ever made !!
  10. You do have to be careful after about the 6 mth mark .... I am 7 mth out and real food like meat, veggies and fruit fill me up quick but junk like crackers and chips I can still eat more of, less than I could eat before. So I am still working of my self control and food addiction.... The sleeve definitely helps with this but you have to make changes yourself too
  11. I did. The week before my preop diet I ate out at all my fav restaurants and ate all my fav stuff....now I'm 7 mth out 90 lbs down and I don't regret having my food funerals....
  12. I'm in! I am gonna start at like 10 or 15
  13. Awesome good for you
  14. Well I made it through! My spin/pilates class started last thursday...my bum hurt for like 3 days and my abs hurt till yesterday. But I did it and didn't die! I go back again this Thursday and am happy about it.
  15. I do! My arms and thighs and tummy feel more squishy, like grandma arm skin... I guess its still better than what it was before
  16. Thanks everyone, I signed up for it today!
  17. You are right, I need to suck it up no more excuses
  18. I want to sign up for this spin/plates community exercise class...but I'm nervous I'm 3 months out and have lost around 50lbs, but all I have been doing is walking. Will this class kick my butt, is it not the right choice to get started real exercise with? And my friend wants to do it with me and she is in much better shape than me so I don't want to look like a fool....
  19. I'm buying them the day before Halloween and I think I'm going to buy a healthier option. They have pretzels, marshmellow packs, fruit chews, etc...all stuff I won't eat later.
  20. I had to do it for 2 wks, 14 shots. But I actually stopped on day 11. In the beginning I got used to them and they didn't hurt, but the last few I did were like the most painful thing. I think by then I was bruised and sore all over my abdomin. My husband gave them to me.
  21. I had like 4 bites of cheesecake. It was good, but it hurt me like 10 min layer. Right now I can't handle things that sweet and rich.
