2 months out 50 lbs down and first competition (video included)



Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I just wanted to share a great day for me today. I had my surgery in December and have lost 50 lbs. I decided to enter a CrossFit competition today. It was tough with all these amazing athletes and over 1,000 spectators but I walked out proud and did it.

I am 232.5 pounds now......I still have a ways to go, but I am on my way!

;) Thank you all for all the support and great postings ;)

Hey IP,

I just showed my husband your video. He is so happy for you/me. He has been wanting me to get healthy and active for so long. Since I spoke to you last week I did join the crossfit up here!!

Jim is going to start coming with me so we can do things as a couple. It has been so long since we were active together, I never wanted to leave the house!

Again, Kudos!

I was talking with my hubby last night and I decided as a goal I would like to enter a CrossFit competition, you have inspired me to much!!! I was googling some and I noticed in Florida they are having one this summer that is team. Jim's parents live in Delray Beach, sooooo I was thinking would you want to get a team together with me?? Please let me know and I will register all of us!!

;) Again, thank you. We can do our weight loss together being we are only one day apart in our surgeries!! Plus you are killing it weight wise, you are a good mentor!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
