I just got to join a really great fitness center through work for FREE, so I hit it twice this weekend, and plan to go at least 4 times a week-they have Water aerobics, plus all the treadmills and bikes I could ever imagine... plus dance classes that I can go to in 2 weeks, when I am cleared for more extreme exertion!!

Ouch Angie about the basement...but you are so right...no other exercise works better than to clean up a mess you didn't want to do in the first place...hope everything is ok and nothing was damaged.

Guess that clothes hanger (oops I mean treadmill:lol:) is going to get dusted off.

Has anyone been to Fitday.com? I signed up yesterday it lets you track your weight, your daily food journal, excercise, goals, etc. etc. Plus it's free. I'm a numbers person so it helps me to see my progress in nice little charts.

Megan I have visited fitday.com......I sort of like it..but I think I will stay with sparkpeople.com.

Today I got on the treadmill did 35:25 (1.67 miles I think). Was a bit in pain on some of the incisions today don't know why...so I took it a bit slow. But got 'er done!

I have not posted since my initial challenge goal.

My goal was 15 min 4x a week and that was Friday???I think. So here it is:

Friday 25 min

Saturday 45 min to and from the park (plus played with kids at park)

Sunday 1 hour of yard work

Monday nothing...well cleaned....does that count??

Tuesday 20 min walk

BTW when I walk I push a 20 lb stroller with 2 BIG babies in it (30 lbs each)

I feel GREAT !!! I am down 10.6 lbs since my initial consult and 7.4 lbs since surgery almost 2 weeks ago.

I can't wait to get into pilates, yoga and kickboxing!!

Lets keep it up victorious valentines!!!!

CAN"T FIGURE OUT THE TICKER THING!!!! I can create it but when I cut and paste the link it does not work....any ideas?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
