Signed up for training for warriors program at my gym and today I did two back to back classes my reg class and then we did one in the park to advertise. It was awesome I may have been a bit slower the second class but I was stronger than last week . I was so proud of myself I almost cried on my drive home to think how far I have come in the past 5 months.

I'm not a stocking person but where them when the occasion calls. I had a banquet Friday night and put on the only one's I had which were queen sized. Queen plus that is. They were so big that I had to pull the toes and place them underneath my feet in my shoes. I through them away as soon as I got back home. So I also had a wedding yesterday but before I went, I went to the store to purchase a new pair of stockings. Well I'm happy to report that I purchased a regular pair of stockings. I haven't purchased a regular pair of stockings since I have been grown. Isn't that something.

That is amazing!! I know that felt good... I find myself walking so much faster now. 6 months ago I couldn't keep up walking with my coworker who is from NY and used to walking fast. But now I can even walk fast and talk without being out of breath !

I have a new one! I was standing at the copy machine and one of my bosses said she didn't know who was standing at the copier because she couldn't recognize me from the back! She said I looked great!

I am down one jean size! Broke into the little stack of 16 Lee longs in my bottom drawer. I have been in 18 Lees for a long, long time. Yippee! They are a little snug but I'm wearing them anyway. Considering going out to find the next size down to have on-hand -- an incentive.....

Went out last night and danced and danced and danced. Never once thought my feet hurt or sit this one out cuz I'm tired. I did sit some out if I was getting hot but there were plenty of people sweating so I know that was just the situation not me being out of shape. Met some new people and plan to go out next weekend too! (Happy dance lol)

Sounds like you had a lot of fun and it was exercise!! Congrats!

Went shopping yesterday, I had to get a few things to hold me over...I tried on size 18 jeans...too big. Tried 16 fit like a glove! Tried on XL sweat pants...too big bought the large, could have bought the medium but I have to fly and want to be comfy.

Happy Happy...but hubby is not so happy about all the clothes :) I'll have to find the time to go through the archives and keep what fits and bag up what doesn't.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
