I am missing the "Fitness & Exercise" section that our old site had. What gives? Reading that stuff and getting ideas helps to keep me a little more motivated. Am I the only one missing it? Maybe it's on here and I just don't see it?

:huh:

Scroll all the way to the bottom and select "General Bariatric Forums" and there you will find that some of the more GENERAL topics were lumped together instead of being broken out into the different varying forms.

Crazy but true...

Some of the others that were put into this general category were the Lounge, Rants & Raves, Technical Assistance, Clothing Exchanges, etc.

Hi Mark...well, we had a week "break" between 6 week sessions and I was so proud of myself getting to the gym and lifting twice during my break. I found that it was NOT the same as having our instructor "push us" but I was proud for doing it. Which makes me glad I signed up for the next 6 week session.

Unfortunately, the fitness center allowed 8 people to register for this session (I guess normally it's capped at 6) and so the instructor was MAD and so she decided to try and see if she could get some ladies to drop by attrition...lol. So there were two "yoga" ladies who were not used to lifting and she put us through some punishing stuff to see if maybe they would quit. :lol:

So we'll see how it all shakes out...made me glad I was on her "good" side! ;)

And ...you...congrats on your two year...Do we get an update post?

Sheila, the more the merrier I guess. :) Good job on continuing without your instructor....sounds like growth to me. Way to go!

I probably should do that update I guess, but nothing really new to post. I've actually gained a few pounds since making my goal weight, but I had kind of planned that anyway. I'm back up to around 227, so I need to slow that gain down. :wacko:

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
