Running - feeling light and athletic and not like a fat cow plodding along embarrassed on another desperate, pathetic, destined to fail diet and exercise routine. I am REALLY a runner! Wow. Its what I wanted most of all, dont know why.

Wearing a bikini and tiny running shorts, that's a great feeling and one I wanted.

Just being able to shop anywhere, buy anything. YOu dont realise how little freedom you have clothing wise when you're bigger.

There are a few things and something just came up last Friday.

Our furnace wasn't working. DH was not home. In order to avoid a call and $$ for HVAC guy to fix it we tried to troubleshoot.

One answer I had to get was the power switch near the furnace, was it on or off?

I didn't even know there was a switch. If there is why in the world would it be off? The blower is in the attic. I've never even been up there.

So there I am puling down the attic stairs and looking at the flimsy looking ladder steps and raling. I see a big sticker on it stating that the weight limit is 250. Serious bodily injury, breaking the stairs or DEATH could occur!

YIKES!

I went up a few steps....ok, holding....holding....I was able to peer into the attic but I wasn't going to brave the final boost....or the first step down.

We ran into the local Hvac guy and he fixed it for free.

I haven't had one of those moments for a few years.

The last time was wondering how I was going to get out of a friends above ground pool....the flimsy aluminum ladder .......

I can't wait for the band!

I want to not worry about chairs, ladders, bikes,

Basicaly I dont want to have to look for the weight limit for something.

Oh and it will be nice to get into an elevator without looking at the maximum weight limit and trying to calculate if I throw the weight over the limit.

      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! 😞
