    Coachthex32 got a reaction from FluffyChix in Friday Night Walking Heart Attack - Before   
    Before and after. Couple close coaching friends getting ready to do the same thing. Very fortunate that I had good insurance. Had to do the 6 month wait (visit and class once a month) but it was worth it. I was a walking heart attack waiting to happen on Friday nights in the fall. So much energy and adrenaline go into a Friday night.

    The incredible world of thrift stores. Went from a size 46 waist to a 34. Shirt size from 3XL or 18.5 neck to 15.5 neck or L in dress shirts. Will not spend over $3-$5 per item. Having a blast finding great items that fit. Always felt guilty going to big and tall just to overpay for khaki expandable pants. Love getting my wife's attention each morning I walk out the door for work. Only regret, I did not get the sleeve sooner. Gained all my weight from 25-44. Almost made it to 300lbs. Ugh...Now back to 185. You can do this too!!!

    Coachthex32 got a reaction from Swimmer in First Time (even after WLS)   
    A coach on my staff had his 40th birthday party at a Vegas (never been) style pool. This was the first adult pool party I have ever been invited to. NO way I would have done this prior to WLS. I had a blast and felt normal with my body. Trying to blonde out my graying hair may have been a mistake (mid life crisis) but still had a lot of fun. Even enjoyed a few Shiners. Just kept track of my calories to not over do it. This was back in July. Have lost another 8-9 lbs from this picture. Never thought this would be possible. You can do this too! Hang in there.

    Hiked up two (2) mountains this summer. 12,998' and 14,202'. Tried the first one three years ago and almost passed out within the first 20 mins.

    Coachthex32 reacted to MargoCL in Eating too fast   
    I found I did much better today. There's something about having a room full of people all eating fast that almost messes with your own mind to eat at their speeds. Today I concentrated on the food in front of me and did much better 20 minutes (but I didn't eat my full 3 oz either)

    Give it time and walk, walk, walk. THERE will be stalls. Hit my goal at 18 months. Just had to be patient. I wish I had done this 20+ years ago. Loving my new body. You will get there too.
