True story--I thought I was curvy till I lost weight... turns out I was just fat. My plastic surgeon gave me back a bit of my curves, but everything I have left is thanks to him

Oh no!! And oh yes!!! 😁 😂

And now I'm on crutches with a torn Achilles' tendon and realizing how much each of them has come to mean to be as I'm staring down the barrel of a three month recovery!

Really sorry to hear you are injured @jess9395. I can only imagine how much that sucks for you.

Thanks! Trying hard not to feel sorry for myself. At least my upper body will keep in shape!

My 15 year old son says "hey you can do weighted pistol squats!"

Pretty sure I couldn't do those before the 20 lb cast [emoji23][emoji23]

That was a cool article. But that one rhythmic gymnast looked like rolled her toes under and then stood in them. Poor gal

I used to powerlift so I know that genetically weightlifting is my body type I used to look similar to the gal in the pictures who weighs 297. My weight was 293. I got so unhealthy though that I had to do something about the weight.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
