Surgery day!

[Rose1up! 262]

@pr_pitbullgrl.... I still feel fat. I have a long way to go. Everyday is goals amd everyday eating is different. Seems like my liquids are going down better than food right now. My new stomach doesnt like a lot of food in it. Im about an oz to 2 oz of food. I feel like theres a lot of air too. Everyday is a learning curve

@Rose1up! Yeah it's like no matter how thin or fit or pretty or smart you think you are there is always someone out there thinner or fitter or prettier or smarter LOL. i feel really good right now it's just seeing that video made me cringe but hey i can take full body pix now and that's a first so i just gotta take it in baby steps.

im upping up my workouts this week to really start hitting squats, deadlifts, burpees etc AND cardio so we'll see how that goes. Glad you're feeling better.

I dont really know. All of us who have chosen this huge step in life have seen ourselves differently for yeeeeeaaarrrsss.... so now with our bodies losing the weight, we can see it in our clothes and in the mirror but we may still see ourselves as the "before" surgery look. If you still feel that way and you are hurting inside... counseling is good for it. I wont know if I get there if I will be feeling like that or not but Im going to watch myself in case I do. Thats a good topic to discuss.

oookkk....time to change up the workout routine a bit. i think i need to push to the next level so i'm gonna start playing tennis again. it's been almost a year and i left playing at a high level which means all the people i'm going back to play with are still at that level lol. so this is gonna be tough to get back into but screw it. imma do it.

I just bought new skates. 4 wheel skates. I skated today and it was pretty fun. Red skates. Its so nice to be getting outside and feeling great. I haven't done tennis for a long time but will be out there on the court again. Its like riding a bike!

I really have enjoyed reading this string! It is super helpful. I may be one of the first to admit I am a "surgery day" super fan stalker

Tennis anyone. I have played for the last 4 years. I had sleeve surgery in September 2015. When I play now, I don't get tired, my feet don't hurt and I am much faster moving around the court. The 86 pounds that I have lost so far are making a huge difference in my game. Funny when I play with some of the bigger guys, I notice them getting out of breath at the change overs. That was me before, now I'm the one with all the energy. Can't wait to play USTA tournaments.

@@1sttime ok see. you understand what im saying. i'm a 4.0. haven't played in a year so i go back to clinic and the 4.0's still hit like 4.0s so you gotta be ready for it lol. and im clearly not. my footwork was hideous. but the work out was good. not sure if imma go back right now or not cuz my knee hurts already and i only did one clinic. i'm down 62lbs so surely it's better on my body but i also play singles so that's hard at 44. even down 62lbs lol. best of luck!
