❤JULY 2019 CHALLENGE❤



Recommended Posts

Going to try the Toned Arms list, can't do Push Ups, if I get down on the floor, it takes an Act of Congress to get me back up, but the rest? Hey, even an Old Chick like me can do That! I wonder if a Standing up PushUp would work , using a Wall , to and then Push Away? Otherwise, can't hurt and might just work, all I got to spend is my Time. Yeah, the Price is Right and believe I'm ending the month better than I Started, so I count it Successful.

B- Side Question: What are your favorite foods?

I'm partial to tea, nuts, melon, yogurt, leafy greens, salmon and pastries (always) 😂

Day 25. I haven’t decided if I’m going to the gym today. If I can persuade my youngest to go play tennis I’d rather do that. It’s going to be a beautiful day here, I prefer getting my exercise outdoors on days like this.

My why. I felt so uncomfortable, uneasy and shame when I was overweight. I stopped participating in the world around me. I’m an active participant now. I lost my why for awhile and wanted it back.

I'd say YAY for sure. This has been such a nice way to see things about people, places and things. It has been very encouraging to read even on days where I missed participating.

I’m in, I like checking in. I loved the picture element even if I didn’t always post. It made me look around and be more aware of my surroundings.

Hi, So sorry I haven't been checking in as much. It's been a crazy busy month but all in a good way. So, I've been terrible about the arms, I gave up somewhere along the way. I've started going home at lunch for the puppy and that was my hour to check in and catch up with daily activities like arm exercises. But, I have to say, I've been good about getting to the gym and I've made decent progress for the month. Nearly 8 lbs as of today which is a shade better than the past two months. I'm excited and I can see Onederland ahead! Tomorrow I go for my belated six month follow up. Today, I did a nuclear stress test and they were impressed at my improvement from the one three years ago.

All in all, I think a good month. I have enjoyed everyone's posts and pictures as they arrived in my email. And, yes! I will post puppy pictures soon! I'm looking forward to a more relaxing and quiet weekend this week. If I don't stop back here, I'll see everyone in August!

Honestly, I love salads with a verrrrry vineagrette-y dressing.

Sashimi, grilled steaks and cashews are up there too 😜

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
