Cool. Where is that?

I'm actually in Tarkington Prairie which is about 40 miles north of Baytown. Between Dayton and Cleveland. Just drive till you're lost in the woods, turn right, go past the second broken mailbox and you're there.

Okay, I know less now but I'm sure I drove through some of those. Ha!

Holy Schnikies!! I finally was able to make it back on the page! Why would you mess with something that isn't broken? Geez.

Anyway, I have been pretty active these last few days. I am now at 40.25 miles for the month. My wife and I have been walking every night and having a good time. We are taking off tonight's walk though...almost time for the LSU vs Alabama game. GEAUX TIGERS!!!

I'm 2 months post op and am now going to Curves 3 x a week and Zumba twice a week, but what I want to do is step aerobics at home in addition to what I've been doing. It may sound silly to some but it's big to me, I started a couple of days ago with 5 mins and I was so winded I could hardly breath, so my goal will be to add a minute to each day and be at 30 mins by the end of the month, I did 7 today, so I need to catch up so I will do 9 tomorrow.

Okay, THAT was *fun* trying to find this thread. Sheesh!

I'm up to 69 miles for the month, but more importantly, I FINALLY was able to try the 1.5 hour spin class. It's offered every Sat. am but only ONE Sat. a month it's taught by my favorite instructor. So finally made it and did much better than I thought I would. It was a different kind of intensity than the 1 hour long class, but still fairly brutal. The one thing that I didn't like was that I was really tired the rest of the day. It was from 7-8:30am and I really just wanted to come home and nap. lol. But that didn't happen, of course, and so I kept thinking...I thought exercise was supossed to GIVE you energy, not take it away! HA!

So, I've rode a total of 25 miles this week which I think brings me up to 30 for the month. I also did the first day of the C25K app yesterday and I lived to tell about it!

OMG, I can believe that I finally was able to get back on this site. What a mess. Anyhow, I've been walking everyday, trying to get up to the 3 strength training sessions in each week even though work is conspiring against me! So far- MTD-38 miles 3 sessions, will try harder!

      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!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
