**** ton of protein man. Yogurt has become my best friend. The 80 cal light and fits. 12 G protein. And they aren’t that filling. How are you making out with everything else?

Hey everyone. Sorry ive been MIA. Ive had A LOT going on the last month or so, as im sure many of you have. Just a simple friday outfit but i wanted to say hi to you all. Hope all is well. ❤️

crossfit definitely was the best choice i made. I went in there at 340. Dont be embarrassed at all. Those days are over. Youre doing this for YOU now. Its time to lose that mentality because that what got us where we were in the first place. I know its hard because i went through it too, but i decided to put my head down, humble myself into knowing i would struggle, and go for it. That way i would never have to feel that way again. YOU got this. Whatever you decide, the only thing that can hold you back is yourself.

no i started doing crossfit. it brings it all together in one workout. i fell in love.

Everyone is different, i went straight into lifting weights. But thats not too common in this community. If you really want to start getting into that type of training, but dont think youre ready for weights, there are a lot of body weight exercises you can do that help get you towards those goals. Air squats are great. People at first think, they cant be that hard. But see how you feel after 100. lol. Also good old fashioned push ups are great. Whether you do the ones on your knees or not, both are great for working your arms and core. Lunges are another one. i will say that my body would get tired but never to wear i felt like i over did it. I was very strict on getting a lot of protein tho. ive watched that video about not working out, and i get it, but there are also other doctors who will encourage lifting. I wanted to get into a good routine early on and i did. I wouldnt change a thing. I hit goal 7 months after surgery and i feel better then ever.

Thank you!! and yeah ive just been focusing on everything and havent been on here as much. Still doing well. Everyone is looking great.

Long time no see. Sorry everything has been insane. Hope everyone is safe.

Real good makes a protein mini pizzas that are very high in protein and low in carbs because the "dough" is actually thin grilled chicken. I enjoy them very much.

Hope everyone is staying safe. Have a great day ❤️

Not really a way to speed up that process unless you have more of a coconut oil type edible that gets ingested faster. Edibles can be tricky. I have no issues hitting the peace pipe either but im not suggesting anything. Thats just me. But i also started the day i came home .

hahaha, its crazy what the muscles do when theyre in action!! thank you!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

LMAOOOO. if i could sit around and look like you i would too!!

i hear ya. That stereotype is slowly fading away thankfully. lol It really is cool what and how they can control it these days based off what youre looking for. I personally love it for sleep. But yeah message me and we can figure something out AJ. PS. The recovery on your muscles and relaxation is unreal.

Lifes been insane, here is a couple....i hope everyone has a great day! ❤️

yupp

Heres my thing, there is a lot of research done these days, and its proven that taking in medical marijuana by ingesting it, is way healthier then alcohol and doesnt have addictive traits like alcohol. These are facts. Not opinions. I dont encourage anyone to do anything. ONLY MY EXPERIENCE. They day i came home i had my infused coconut oil and i still do to this day. And i think ive been pretty successful. Anyone that takes a prescription drug has no right to tell anyone else that this prescription is different. The days of close minded "marijuana is the devil" are over. Please i encourage you to do your research before you bash something that youve been told your whole life is the devil so thats what you believe. I hope everyone finds what THEY NEED to be successful on this journey. We are all different and may take different roads but i hope we all make healthy new lives and continue to grow. ❤️ i hope everyone has a great day!

Not gonna lie, its a lot of hard work, especially early on because you cant eat a lot to really build muscle. But i started going hard 2 weeks after surgery and havent stopped. Im Happy where im at now. Eventually going to try to build more muscle. But it is a process, and losing the weight and being healthy is what is most important first.

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER

8 months out..... lifes good.

YESSSSS!!!! FREAKY FRIDAYS. WOOOOO. Loving the spirit.

HAPPY FRIYAYYYY. Rainy day in jersey. Just trying to lighten the mood lol. I hope you beatuiful people have a great day. ❤️

Im wearing a whacky shirt tomorrow. Any other takers? lolol

I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GOOD DAY ❤️

Good news is you know what you have to do when it comes to eating. Now you just had to up your activity and continue to eat good healthy foods. Maybe look into some high intensity work outs. I know you can keep it going. This ride is not over and im sure youre more restricted then you were before surgery. Take full advantage! I love working out now. and i think it has a lot to do with my success. I know people similar to me that had the surgery and lost a lot at first and then plateau before goal because then never exercised. Use the tool while we have it and incorporate a new life style in that time. Good luck! You got this.
