- I went to my first Zumba class last night. I LOVED it! I was a little concerned because the friend I went with is about 15 years younger than I am and not overweight, never has been overweight. She emailed me several times yesterday with tips...
- http://www.cnn.com/2013/07/19/health/boy-scouts-bmi/index.html?hpt=hp_t2Has anyone read this or heard about this? The Boy Scouts are banning boys with a BMI over 40 from attending Jamboree this year. How horrible is that? I am sure there may be...
- I am 9 months post surgery (9/25/12) and I experienced a severe dumping episode on Tuesday night. I don't dump easily and when I do it is normally very mild (a little nausea, headache, foamies) but Tuesday night I ate some junk that I knew I...
- I bought a bathing suit and went swimming at the pool at my mother's condo over the weekend and I wasn't embarassed!!! Although the sagging skin on my thighs kind of showed at the bottom of my bathing suit skirt but I didn't even care, because I...
- I am 9 months out from surgery. Had a rough start but have been doing great now. Only problem I have is getting my bowels regulated, suffer from bouts of constipation. But this past week I have been feeling excessively tired. I fall asleep in...
- I finally was able to upload pictures to my gallery here. There are some on there from last year at my heaviest weight and then some from my trip to Disney this past February and also some from May of this year as well. And I had my daughter help...
- Today is nine months since my surgery. In May of 2012 I weighed in at 347 pounds, right before my surgery I weighed 302. This morning I got on the scale and was 213!! So that is 134 pounds gone since I first met with my surgeon (89 down since...
- I work in a retirement community and I have about 345 residents that I interact with on varying levels. I have been very honest about my surgery and they have all been very supportive of my decision (I have worked here for 17 years so I have know a...
- I am at a plateau, have been for about 3 weeks, maybe closer to a month. I keep bouncing between 217 and 219. I have really stepped up my exercising so that may have something to do with it (the whole muscle vs fat thing). But my biggest concern...
- Does anyone do yoga? I walk every day but I wanted to do something else besides just walk. I know that yoga (yin) isn't a big calorie burner but it is good for stretching muscles and helping your joints all of which I could use. i am going to my...
- I was out taking my walk this afternoon and I heard a truck beep its horn and someone yelled "looking good" then I realized they were talking to me! It was my neighbor, lol. He was so sweet, I still have a bit (50ish pounds) to lose, but it still...
- New Jersey's governor has announced that in February he had lap band surgery. For those of you who are not familiar with him he is a pretty big guy and has been subject to a lot of criticism about his weight and how it affects his health and his...
- I was looking into this activity tracker and I know there have some posts about them. I was on amazon looking at the differences between the two other than the $30 price difference. It seems that they do exactly the same thing except the FitBit...
- I know a lot of us suffer from this after surgery but lately I cannot seem to get myself regulated. I have brought this up before on here, but don't know how to find older posts. I will be good for a week or maybe even two or three and then BAM I...
- Has anyone heard of these. I got a message today from an acquantence who had GBS surgery about 5 years ago. She invited me to a meeting at this nurtition club near her home. She said it was Herbalife and was geared towards people "who had...
