My first major goal met!!
My first goal for 2019 was to lose 50lbs by 50 years old. I turn 50 on Saturday and this morning i finally met my goal!!! 50lbs lost since 01/4/19 and 25lbs since surgery 7/23/19... woop woop!!! We just got back from New Orleans and I realized that i didn't need to eat or drink alcohol to truly enjoy myself, its who you surround yourself with! My sister came over from London, my daughter and her partner, my nephew plus 3 of my best friends and we had a blast!! The celebrations will continue for the next 2 weeks while other friends and family arrive from abroad to celebrate this milestone withme. #50lbsby50yearsgoalachieved

?AUGUST 2019 CHALLENGE?
Definitely more uncomfortable post-op!! Post op, my loo experience is very different to pre op. Post-OP, my poo is in diarrhea form and extremely gassy and loud. Just embarrassing! I can no longer get away with having a quiet but deadly smelling poo. Now its gassy, loud and deadly!

Under table exercise bike or eliptical?
I do a sit down job and to be honest I can't type and pedal at the same time. I do however use it at home when watching TV.
