Accomplished a HUGE goal. 5k race



Recommended Posts

Since my journey began in September 2014 I set a goal to run a 5k. I accomplished that goal yesterday. Finishing the 5k in 26 minutes. I began my journey at 222 pounds. post-232531-14596912075966_thumb.jpgpounds.

That is awesome! Great time too! I still remember how awesome it felt completing my first 5k. I've done lots of races since then, inluding much longer ones, but there was NOTHING like the feeling of completing that first 5k and realizing you were capable of doing more than you ever thought. Congratulations to you!

I was #Sleeved on 3/1 (now down 25lbs ????) and I started training for an upcoming 5k (May 21) on Monday (4/4) per the Dr approval. I'm in soft foods stage until Tuesday (4/12) however, as you can imagine I'm hungrier because I'm back to working out. I'm concerned that this will stall and I won't lose, so I made an appointment with my nutritionist for Tuesday (4/12). How have you dealt with this? Being a sleever and runner? How many daily calories are "leftover" at the end of the day minus your workout?

      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! 😞
