Shoulder recovery is coming along nicely.. Working on flexibility and strengths in baby steps.. Not rushing things, but I wanna do a triathlon next year, so I gotta start training again...

Thanks...

Just had a shoulder repaired after damaging it in February. Apparently although I am 20 in my mind, my body has other ideas. That'll learn me for trying to out do my young troopers in a pull up competition.. Lol
It'll be lower body exercises and lots of waking for the next while.. I'm cool with it as long as the weather stays steady.
Will have to modify food intake as I won't be doing my 1000 calorie work outs for awhile.. Lol
Take care all!

I did a preemptive thing and had a 1cc defill prior to a shoulder surgery. I was having occasional reflux and thought it would be bad to have it while knocked out on the Drs slab. My fill nurse thought it was an awesome idea. Oddly for the past week, I've felt physically better since the defill, so if things work out, I won't get topped off again...
The surgeon and anesthesiologist were very appreciative as well..

I like the app and really enjoy reading your progress and the enthusiasm to make your bad work for you. One thing that grinds my gears is how it only counts calories burned during cardio, but not strength training. Increased Protein during strength training is essential, and I feel sometimes a true representation isn't being depicted.. Just saying....

After a weekend of total misbehaviour I'm feeling slow and sloth like. Stressful times tend to send me out of focus, and then the regret of being bad pile up... Gotta get back on track if I wanna meet my goal by Canada Day...

Ugh...not even going to record this weekends activities... Stress of last week help build a need for comfort foods... Time to get back on track.

I'm going to be a rough but I've got to say it.So' date=' you are obese and your wife doesn't support your effort to get a tool to help you to take control of your life??? Wonder what her thoughts will be when she calls 911 when that heart attack comes. Or, how will she treat you when you go blind from diabetes??? How 'bout when the doctor tells you they will have to amputate your foot because of diabetes???
Terrible thoughts I know but they are real for the obese. I was going stinking blind as a result of diabetes and obesity.
Put on you big boy britches, call the whole family in and tell them DAMMIT I'M DOING THIS BECAUSE I WANT TO LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
We only have one life, make the most of it. You are like the rest of us here, we sat and watched. Well, I did a 12.2 mile 20 obstacle course 1 year from surgery. I'm not sitting on the sidelines anymore.[/quote']
Agree 100%

It's a plateau, and your body will adapt around it. Understandably it's mind over matter. You can and will get through it... Just have to accept it and enjoy the break. Bodies need time to adjust.
Send me a note anytime you feel discouraged.. I'll certainly try to help

I'm not into crossfit as my joints no longer allow it. The wife and I have embraced the paleo diet idea within reason. We try to eat organic meats and veggies and stay away from processed foods as much as possible. We rarely eat refined sugar or flour. We don't follow the paleo life to a fault but we make an effort. Hard to give up Beans and rice. imotmf
I have the same issue with crossfit... Joints can't take the intensity... I've been reading up on it, and some real damage can occur wrt kidneys and Protein excretion if you aren't careful...

Working out is an addiction for me... If I don't go, I feel terrible and if I feel too bad I start to feel unmotivated... I just look at a preop pic and say to myself.. "Never Again"

The newfound attention from the opposite sex was humbling. I'm married, and the attention and looks that I am receiving now sometimes get me in trouble. I've always been a friendly guy... Chatty and all, but the friendliness gets confused with me being flirty. Not gonna lie, the jealousy wifey feels and expresses does feed the ego a bit. I dont and wont act on anything... i care and love my wife too deeply to throw it away on a whim or fantasy.
Everyone does receive me better. I've seen it... From getting a bit of extra service when out for a meal, a checkout clerk throwing in a quarter for me if I dig for some change, or just that extra smile.... Wow... And to be taken seriously at work too is an added bonus... All this helps boost the confidence which I lacked for being heavier. I'd always had a bit of an inferiority complex, and its slowly going away. The hard part is keeping the ego in check, as things can get out of control super fast..
Gotta remember to be the same friendly guy as I've always been know, but with a humble touch of confidence

Awesome work.
