Off site for awhile...and my fitness pal!



Recommended Posts

I was sick for almost 4 weeks, my husband just had his tonsils out on Monday and my son was taken to the ER today. Needless to say it has been very crazy in our house. Sadly I have kind of lost touch with VST but now I am back. Probably about a year ago I signed up for My fitness pal but never actually used it. I looked into it a little more this past week and started actually using it and I love it. Unfortunately being sick has kept me at a steady weight, which is better then gaining I suppose. Plus I was on steroids for 21 days so all in all I consider no gain a really good thing! I was able to do one yoga class and I will be slowly doing more exercise this week and am hoping to get back to the gym and yoga at my regular pace by the end of October. I am looking forward to doing better tracking of my food and exercise with MFP. If you are on MFP and want to "friend" me my name is dawnmich! Hope all is well :)

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
