I am so happy!



Recommended Posts

Thats it. No big news...just happy.

Finally got my "cruiser type" bike fixed and bought a used mountain bike (both from a bike hobbiest guy who custom fitted it just for me). Best $50 I recently spent. I went for a little ride last night and thought "wow - this is alot easier at 155 then at 300+++.... LOL. I am going to do another little ride after work today.

Tonight, i am meeting a friend for a horseback ride. Okay, i do that alot, nothing new, but I just can't believe how "full" my life is now. I look back at the person who tried to be active but often sat at home watching TV because the body couldn't keep up with the heart and desires....

It makes me happy to every day be living the life I want!

I want one of those bikes! That would be so fun. I am going to look into that.

It's too bad all of us vst friends live so spread out. It would be so fun to go bike riding together.

Ok what is a cruiser bike? I am imagining a cool retro old fashioned easy strider type back...not one of those new fangled "Mountain Bikes" lol although I knew a girl that was a mountain biker who had the most rockin body from it. Its challenging for me to ride one on flat pavement, let alone up a dirt trial on a mountain.... :wacko:

Awesome! You have done a wonderful job of showing the best benefits to this whole process is not the number on the scale rather its the amount of life we're able to live. Enjoy!

Lisa's Hope, you might research 5:2 eating. Google it and read up on it. Seems to be working for me right now.

I have a "crusier" bike copy! Old style bike but new. Love to ride it. Only problem is that I live up on the side of a small mountain and have to transport down the hill and good area to ride unless I go somewhere else! :( It manages to deter me frequently from riding as much as I would like.

Yeah, my bike is really heavy! So hills are hard..

We have some hills here and you will find me huffing and puffing or walking it up.

The beach is my favorite place to ride :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
