Oh to be young and beautiful and restricted LOL 💙💚💛💜💝💟😜

Oddly enough as much as I advocate for it, I've never indulged 😓 But I just want the world to have a little less suffering in it 💚

Hi, If you belong to a gym ask about a fitness instructor session. Most are free with membership and the bigger gym chains. YouTube will be invaluable for commonly asked questions, as well as Pinterest for self guided challenges. There are lots of 30 day plans that work increments (day 1- 1 set 10 reps, day 2- 1 set 15 reps, etc.) And those help build endurance. An accountability partner is always helpful too. Hope that helps!

I'm doing well, how about you?

The Gladwell of cardio these days ... Observing, speculating and then just writing about 😂

That's because you are Sexy AF 😎

IKR!?!?! I thought they were extinct. If only for pure anthropological research I must continue my observations ... What we do for the advancements of the Sciences

If you have a lot to lose, will not change your diet ,already have reflux, maladaptive eating patterns, diabetes/hypertension, lack of self control /moderation you may want to consider talking about the sleeve vs bypass again with your team.

Congrats on having 5 year plan! I think I need one too.✅ You may be surprised at how everyone steps up when they see you are changing too. Divorce shmivorce, do what's right for your situation. If it's married apart while in Ireland, then go home (just promise to let me visit) My children are pretty amazing but they have their conspiratorial moments too. When hardline parenting doesn't work i then drop of Motherhood and they suddenly see I'm not playing their games, I'm playing Candy Crush and there will be no dinner or mall runs. Suddenly everyone knows what to do and order prevails. Teens. Sigh. But I am thankful that their father and I are not together but parent mostly in unison. You can totally reform everyone in 3 months, or get them in better habits. You got this!! You'll do amazing because you are being thoughtful and focused.

So... Friend zoned (I was the zoning committee, Just didn't feel quite right so I asked to remain friends for now) BUT I randomly meet two people out in the wild. The first one at a local Food Co-op, the second while with Friends. I'm opt-in for door #2 I think... This is work... I'm tiredt

This is where minimalism may help. If there's nothing to make a mess of you'll have less issues. Sometimes we just have too much stuff cluttering our lives. Let him buy new clothes and trash the old ones. Eventually if your kids run out of clean clothes and you refuse to do them, they will. They've been playing chicken with you and winning. My kids tried it, hell I probably tried it as a kid too. I digress. The battle with the children, no solutions I can think of. I'm a firm believer in parents as a united front against the tyranny of adolescence. Only paper products after surgery, so less worries for you to deal with. Less stress will be critical to your success. Removing as much before hand will help a ton. You may want to become super protective/selfish about your journey.

Girl... Give your unhelpful crew a wake up call now. Randomly let them fend for themselves from now on. Do your own dishes, clean your own space, let them grow up and see what their new life will look like. They are ALL too old for that type of behavior. Minimalism might help. Only 4 of you so really only 4 items of anything needed (plates, bowls, cups, spoons, forks, etc.), Capsule wardobing your children & husband's clothing, putting everything else firmly away. They appear to be abusing the freedoms of variety and your housekeeping skills. 4 weeks is not bad, you will be able to really recover and adjust to post surgical life You'll probably be knitting as soon as you're not in constant pain. But recoveries are super individualized and cannot be anticipated until it's happening so everything is just prediction. Sorry. Safe Journey!

I would wait a few months until you enter a good grove with food, have superb initial habits, no dependance on protein supplements, can hydrated properly and most of all speak with your team about it.

Tomorrow is a new hydration day. Crush your goals!
