I don't waddle like a duck anymore when I walk



Recommended Posts

As I was walking in the parking lot of my office building. I noticed my shadow. I love looking at my shadow because it outlines my progress. The other day, I noticed there's been a change in the way I walk. I no longer waddle when I walk. As I run towards my weight-loss goal. It helps to see that I have made changes. I still have to be careful not to run into park cars as I look down. My legs are looking longer and stronger here's to the future. I'm learning how to work this sleeved life! ????????????????

My body's automatic changes in how I move -- and my own conscious efforts to change how I move and how I hold my body (standing straighter, shoulders back, tits out, moving forward not side to side, holding my legs in closer, not out, not leaning on walls, head straight up, eyes forward, not down, etc.) has made a big difference in how I feel and how I present myself to others.

When I weighed so much more it was hard enough just to move to get somewhere and then to slouch or collapse as soon as I got there -- whether it was across the room or across a parking lot.

There's so much to this journey. So much!

I love this topic! Lol...I was thinking the other day that I need to learn a better walk...it didn't occur to me that it may just unveil itself along with the rest of my body!

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

      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! 😞
