Can Fat People Bungy Jump? Well I did!



Recommended Posts

Always one to create a stir...I just wanted to let everyone know that I am 239lbs and I jumped head first off a bridge with only a tiny elastic rope around my ankles...It was the most terrifying thing I have ever done in my whole life...Standing on the edge of the bridge...looking down at the swirling Water way, way, way below...and thinking I am going to jump down into that. Here is a Picture:

I have more pictures on my blog...but I guess I just wanted to brag...If I can do that...then we can do anything...losing the remaining 63lbs that I have to loose should be a breeze for me after that. We shall see.

You are so BRAVE. I have always wanted to but didn't go thru with it.

I am so impressed. I am so envious.

What will you do next? I did white Water raft and it was fun and very dangerous. I love Water but those rocks can break bones if you hit them right/wrong.

Bungie jumping scares me. One of my goals, when I lose weight, is to go sky diving. For some reason, that's a lot less scary for me than bungie jumping.

The only reason I wouldnt have been able to bungy jump is becuase I was incapable of telling anyone what I weighed without knocking off a couple of kilos, lol.

I think the scariest part for me than would be stepping on the scale in front of people:eek:. I have always wanted to go sky diving, white Water rafting, and bunge jumping. I think doing all that will be my big reward!

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
