Hi everyone! Wow has life been a whirlwind. I am starting a new job on Monday, which I am psyched. I joined Golds gym this week, which I am loving how I am feeling.... I have been having difficulty with some foods, however my little cuisine art processor is my best friend. Yesterday I was able to push through just over 2 miles, and burned 510 calories. It felt so good to do that. I am so excited with the changes I am seeing and feeling with my body..... When I lost weight before, I had saved my "skinnier" clothes and am now able to wear a good number of them. The other day I was the girl with the apple bottom jeans, boots with the fur! Lol.... Hope you all are enjoying this journey!

Anne-Cuse, I really need to use my processor more. I keep trying to chew things down and it just ain't happening! Can't hold down any chicken/fish/beef/shrimp. Blah. :/

I know what you mean the Protein is horrible. I've tried the protein shots' date=' the high Protein Drinks, protein pre made shakes all of it taste bad. I get very little protein in and im

trying. I don't know what to do.[/quote']

I went to the GNC store an git the whey Protein Powder (no flavor ) an put the powder in a fruit smoothie in the morning. It barely has any taste an is tollerable. I go to costco an get real frozen strawberries n pineapple chunks an use Water instead of milk so its not real creamy an that's been working well. Even my husband drinks em with me every morning. I can attach a picture of the protein in interested.

the stalls are awful!!! they play mind games on you like your doing something wrong!! I guess my weight loss is already slowing down to about 1-2 pounds a week. I hate that being only 7 weeks out. I know it is strictly because the only exercise I am getting mostly is house cleaning and taking care of my 3 year old grandbaby. I joined the Y but hate going by myself and I don't have a vehicle till husband gets off work and by then I have the baby. so I think the Y is not going to work out. I will just have to try and invest in a treadmill

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
