Weight Warrior

just did the same thing! picked up a Philadelphia Union Soccer pull over in XL and its on the big side. i need to really start seeing the thinner me :-)

Good to see you back. How are things? Hope you have a great trip and enjoy you family time. My brother and his family are in Dallas and he constantly reminds me of how warm it is there, as opposed to here in the city of brotherly love. ......burrrr i now offically hate winter. have a great day!

Very sorry to hear this. My prayers are with you and your family. God bless. RJ

Mel the triathlon is an excellent idea. im trying the Media 5k in May. im going to make it one way or the other. I did see you are concerned about the bike aspect of the event. im riding my bike now and 8 to 10 miles is highly do-able. just make sure you have a bike shop set the bike up for you and tune it up. i did this with my new bike and it was like night and day as far as effort to peddle the vehicle. also i got a seat called a C9 cloud gel filled seat. its wide and is easy on my hiney. 100% better than the Nazi inspired european ass torture device it came equiped with. let me know how you progress in your training. very intrested......catch you later gator

Tessa315, Welcome to the group. RJ

Carol, Im glad to hear you had the same epiphany i did on the amount of daily exercise i was or was not getting . This thing (Fit Bit ) is like crack! i'm just trying to make all of those bloody lights activate. How have you been doing.? We had some great weather and was actually able to get outside and get some real exercise without dressing like i was getting ready for extended deep sea diving . Have a great night RJ

Helllloooooooo Mel! sorry about the inactivity, the past two weeks have been a blur. im changing departments and going over to our camera security group in an IT support tech roll. i have been training my replacement in special projects. Health and weight are on track in fact i skipped over a size and now wear the same size i was in my early 20's ......Jeans...im wearing and fitting nicely into jeans for god sakes....its amazing!!!! Picked up a fit bit flex and currently obsessing on that. i highly recommend it. amazing little device they should give one out with every RNY. Congrats on the bathing suit thing :-) when do we get to see the pics...hubba hubba. Hope your doing well have a great evening you skinny thing. catch ya later. RJ

Hello June Mates! Stall finally broke!!!! lost 7more lbs total weight loss as of the AM 184 lbs ....yipee skippy :-) If you are in the path of this Noreaster heading up the east coast. shop early today it going to be a big one! stock up on your protien. Have a wonderful day all you skinny Ladies & Gents Peace out! RJ

Hey Now! the majority of the vitamins at CVS are currently buy one get one free! I stocked up and saved BIG. Just thought this was worth sharing :-) RJ

Ill keep you and your family in my prayers.

ok, so please dont take this the wrong way but.....you need to stop focusing on the weight number as a measurement of how you are doing. i have been following your posts since we started in june and you are rocking this program. what others do and progress means nothing to you. as you know we are all diffrent and unique a sleeve rny band yield diffrent results. just keep changing the bad habits the rest will sort itself out. be more concerned of the long term life style change and getting yourself prepared for 2,5,10 years down the road. lets face it this is the easy part of the program we are still in the " honeymoon phase" just keep doing what you have been doing and what works for YOU! You are an amazing beautiful woman who is brave and motivated work with that :-) have a great day you skinny girl RJ

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!

The heck with the super bowl this is exciting news! make sure you tell us when you kick off that 1 pound. it will be very soon :-) im so happy for you and the milestone your about to achive!

Thanks Baconville thats very sweet of you to say. Was able to get a bike ride in before i start my pregame chili......rear end and thighs are hurting :-) but feel great.

Hello to all of my June Mates, Had my six month assessment yesterday by the emanate Dr, Ing. The Doc is very happy with my progress and here is the breakdown 179 lost to date need vitamin A added to my diet I am officially physically conditioned ( heart rate resting and excising are within normal healthy zone) was asked to be a mentor for new patients coming into the program for 2014 since I embody all of the positive aspects of the Bryn Mawr program ( I accepted and am very psyched to hopefully help someone get were I am ) Dr. Ing seems to think the sleep apnea may be cured will have sleep study. This will confirm what i already know. Well here In Media PA , It was 40 degrees by 3pm went for a hike in the snow covered woods and had an excellent very physical walk. we are forecast for 3-5 inches on Monday and back into the single and negative digits for the next couple of weeks. I may have started to breakthrough the stall just changing up food and exercise . will try to get a long bike ride in tomorrow before the weather change. Peace out RJ

SWEET! Congrats hope your a trend setter you skinny thing :-)

Congrats! you inspire me to stay on target! the ice and snow not to mention the bitter cold has limited my range also....come on spring!
