  1. Upper body weight training today with some ab work Tom cardio n weight training loving the exercise .. Although my weight hasn't changed drastically these past few months my body must be a guy at the gym commented how feet I looked and how much weight I lost in the past month. I smiled and says thank you ... Eating right working out is the key but I kept my lil secret weapon to myself ... I'm putting the work in the band us a tool I'm working I don't advertise it
  2. Great job have u been back to trx ?
  3. Ran that treadmill drill work out again. I started. At 7.2 on treadmill for speed n ended workout at 8.0 my heart rate was at. 96% according to my heart rate monitor awesome workout today n then errands all day walking and such I'm gonna sleep like a baby tonight
  4. Crazy NSV I fit better in the seat of my car when I got my car last year I couldn't see the seat I was right up against the middle console n door n was disappointed with downsizing my car I felt how big I was. Yesterday while driving I looked down and saw the seat my thighs did not cover the whole thing the car doesn't feel right anymore. Can't wait to get in a plane in July and see what it is like In that seat last year I barely closed the seatbelt .... To be continued
  5. You will make it and will be fine

  7. Catfish I can't wait to run on treadmill again now I'm mad I gave mine away .. I may have to break out of a comfort zone and take it to the park and jog the track a few laps ????
  8. Just to share I have increased the amount if weight I'm lifting at the gym I remember when I could barely lift 3 lb weights for arm raises now I'm up to 10lbs and it's my shoulder that prevents me from lifting more but I'll get there !!! Had a aha moment u. The gym more like a flashback I remember last year I could barely hold plank for 2 seconds and was dying doing or should I say attempting to do done of the things I do 3Ox or more drying a workout now . Sad I had to miss my am workout today due to work but that's ok I did it yesterday and today will be my rest day ...
  9. My dr says .5 to 1lb a week is a reasonable lost if that helps. N personally I have set my goals. Perhaps a little unrealistic but I'll get to that goal and the change it lol. I attack this losing thing a group of 10 at a time just like to see that middle number change and now my eye is in onederland then ill resume my middle number change again you got this
  10. A loss is a loss life like our journey is not perfect
  11. [Goal April 30 199.9 April 1 207 April 7 204.8 April 15 203.8 So close yet feels so far away ..To much Easter fun up 2lbs April 21 206.8 . More Water and exercise this week so close to onederland I can feel it[. April 30,2014 202.8 didn't make my April goal but I'm making it to onederland. Every .2 loss at a time. I have to make my May goal more realistic with what my body is doing just slowing down in weight loss but the important thing is I'm eating healthy (minus Easter) exercising and losing. Hopefully goodbye April showers n let's go May flowers ( with less pollen dam allergies lol)
  12. just shy of two week mark for me. then it was back to normal listen to your body and rest when needed. i tried to push myself like i just didnt have surgery think thats what prolonged my recovery, but once i felt better no looking back it was the greatest decision i ever made
  13. Ok this is a first I ran on the treadmill at the gym . I take this class where we do like a circuit training 30 seconds of different exercises 3x each and switch exercises for a total of 3 sets of 3 but the cardio always stays the sane. Usually it's in a spin bike but Tuesday it was on a treadmill. I was scared to death but not as scared or intimated like the first time I walked I to that gym 93 lbs heavier. But I did it I ran for 30 seconds for 9 times and immediately went Into my circuit !!! I almost cried I was so proud of myself. Then a few of us took a spin class immediately after. Granted I was in bed by 8pm that night totally exhausted but looking forward when I can do it again I like the back to back classes it's a shame my job n gym schedule prevents me from doing it more often . Summer vacation is 20 weeks away so that's my plan for summer back to back classes at the gym what a difference a year in my life makes.
  14. I haven't started looking yet but I know it will be pricey thinking 20grand or more so I just tuck away and spare money I can. If I don't use it fir surgery I can use for clothes after
  15. To much Easter fun up 2lbs April 21 206.8 . More Water and exercise this week so close to onederland I can feel it
  16. I am thankful for my band as well
  17. Great thread. I am adding a trx class to my current exercise routine OMG !!! Pretty intense using my own body weight fir resistance but I'll get there . Just like I did with spinning n warrior training ... Last year at this time u started spinning now I'm a workout junkie .. My trainer is forcing me to take 2 days off a week from working out . But I'll get a quick something In at home shhh don't tell him .gotta get ready for my spartan race June 7 gulp .. Have a great Saturday everyone
  18. Goal April 30 199.9 April 1 207 April 7 204.8 April 15 203.8 So close yet feels so far away ....
  19. I have lost about 90lbs I weight train n do cardio and well things are sagging I'm 38 n use coconut oil. My boobs are the saddest of the lot I was a 44d/dd now I'm a 38/40 d n they look horrible out of my bra sad deflated balloons I just bought a groupon for velashape to tighten my arms it has been working but it's far from perfect. In fully prepared and saving up for a full body lift in 2 years. Also very important to stay hydrated as well . With all that being said would I still get the band absolutely . I wear shapers under my clothes and do what I can. Currently single and when naked for someone I doubt he will mind at that point and if he does his loss I am who I am sagging skin n all
  20. She says I will hate it but I figure it will grow. I think I'm going to go for it in the summer ! My hair has always been thin and I think a shorter cup works like nice. I love the good morning America co anker 'a cut I think her name is Amy love the cut n color and think with a tan it will be great we will see. I always talk about finding a new hairdresser then I get scared
