wcn1970 got a reaction from NewSetOfCurves in Would LOVE to be a bodybuilder post-surgery
I was 340 lbs when my journey started, 316 at surgery. I have lost over 160 but have gained over 30 lbs of muscle. It totally can be done. I sit pretty ripped at 190 lbs.

Talking about the bottle Isopure? I love that stuff. Grape is my favorite. I just dilute it so it lasts longer.

I have used the fitbit but got bored quickly with it and gave it away. Just read an article that they are over 25% inaccurate. If it helps motivate you great but certainly don't define your exercise by them.

even though I forgot my lifting belt in the car I pushed through a huge squat/deadlift superset workout with a Tabatta style rotating staircase circuit to finish it off.

wcn1970 got a reaction from BeagleLover in Tiny tummy
I still find it funny when I find myself finally getting hungry and sitting down to eat and after 5 or 6 bites I am done. I have been traveling all week so I have been eating out and they keep bringing me these huge plates of food. I am at the point now I tell them to only bring the meat. I get the strangest looks but just assure them nothing else will get eaten, ever.

I have excess skin on my stomach but still have pronounced abs. It is my reminder of what I was and I embrace that.
Extreme weight loss participants are VSG patients as well.

Don't jump off that bridge. Zucchini Pasta is all you should be considering.

One of my favorites "Beast". Dead lift to burpee to squat thrusters 10,9,8.7.6.5.4.3.,2,1 set counts of each. Total killer.

wcn1970 got a reaction from unbesleevable1 in "Cardio" setting vs "Fat Burn" setting on elliptical
Truthfully these settings on the machine are nonsense. Do this. 220 minus your age. That equals your absolute highest heart rate. Then times that by 40%, this would be the heart rate suggested for someone just starting to work out. From there you can go up as you get "better" and more fit until you reach the 85% of your max which would be your max cardio heart rate before going anaerobic.

wcn1970 got a reaction from BeagleLover in Found decent protein shot
The bottles Isopures are awesome. I mix half and half with Water and get over 40 ounces of Fluid and 40 grams of protien.
The protien shots have actually come a long way. Read up on them. Isopure has a couple out now based on the bottled protien recipe that doesn't use calogen. Also, while some may have calogen in them they also do incorporate whey isolate. Just research and make an educated decision. There are protien gel packs out now as well that aren't bad.

Never settle for off brand. The price was nice but it doesn't work. Take it back and get a fitbit.
