I have now lost 58 pounds which means I have lost exactly half of my projected goal for weight loss! I will try to post a picture later. To Celebrate we are going to mountains to hike down to the crystal caves which is something I have not been able to do in 14 years. The hike down is fairly steep, about a mile, but hiking out is a tough one. About died doing it last time and swore it was my last. So when making goals for after surgery doing this hike was on my list. Now here is hoping I find it easier and I do it with minimal or no whining lol!! I'll take a picture after I complete it to show my first victory post-surgery not weight related!! Yay me!!

Best of luck on your trip. You've done so well, and I'm sure you'll enjoy the caves and hike so much more. We wish we could go with, but we are not ready for a strenuous hike like that. Have a great day, and share some photos later. Say HI to all...

Ok I was wrong it was 1/2 mile down so only 1 mile round trip but nonetheless it was a tough hike. But I did it and my legs and back never ever hurt!! Not a twinge at all Yay!' I did get massively out of breath and had to stop a few times but just for a min or two only. I did no worse than many "normal" weight people. It was fun and the kids loved the hike/tour through the caves which lasted 45 min. I was ready to come home and go to the gym but hubby is like heck no that was a strenuous workout, so I'll still do exercise bike tonight.

First pic is before hike, second is pic of beginning of trail and third us me near the top almost done with hold back up!!

      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.
