Thanks guys....it's always good to have people cheering you on. @ raven21. I promise you I am not all muscle. I haven't started to incorporate any weight training into my new life style yet.

You look great. Looking at your post op picture I would. Ever have guessed that you were any bigger at any given time. Good luck and continued success.

Wow you look great!!!!

Wow you look great!!! Keep up the good work.

Hmmm.....I get the same pain in my abdominal area when running or jogging. I asked my doctor once long ago and she states that it is somewhat common, i want to say it has to do with breathing and decreased oxygen supply. Since u stated (if I'm not mistaken) that this occurs after walking for a long time I would think it is the similar thing. If you google abdominal pain when running, you will get the more scientific explanation. I hope this helps.

All you guys look great!!! Keep up the good work.

Oh yeah sorry forgot to mention @hh your looking pretty good!!! Keep up the good work.

Ok I don't have a preop pic handy but here is a pic of me about 2 weeks ago....sorry for the messy bedroom. So I'm 4 months postop and down about 70 in the picture.

Congrats!!! You look great.!

Good luck on both!!!

Congrats....keep up the good work.

You look really great!!

I didn't tell anyone at work. I am 4 months post op and 75 pounds down and it is very noticeable. I get a lot of compliments at work and I just say thank you. I really don't care what people at work think or say. It's really not any of their business and it is inappropriate for the. To be commenting on it.

Yes I work at a hospital, don't worry it is quite common. As a matter of fact when patients call to make the appointments they are asked about their weight, if they weigh over (300??) lbs they are sent to an open MRI which is not so constricting.

Congrats....

Good luck to you!!!

Well congrats on the accomplishment...lol it is true skinny sex is so much better than fat sex. I personally can bend and wrap legs and other body parts in ways I never thought possible, and the hubs is enjoying every minute of it... As am I. Heheheh

Yeah buddy!!!!! Good for you. Usually you hear people still feeling their like old fat selves and not being able to see the new improves versions of theirselves. Well I'm glad to see someone who has dropped the fat person like a bad habit. You work hard for what you've accomplish so flaunt it.

You look great!! Keep up the good work.

Wow...there are really some judgemental people here. The truth of the matter is that in most marriages women tend to carry the bulk of the responsibilities of domestic duties and child rearing. There are some wonderful men that will pitch in with out being told. However many men need to be told. Trust me I've had to lose it a few times (can we say psycho) before I got my point across. it's all about balance, little by little you and your husband will need to find a system that works. It doesn't happen overnight, but just keep working at it and hopefully he will compromise soon. Best of luck to you.

Just do it. Lol anxiety is normal part of the process. Embrace your emotions, but know in your head and heart that you are making the right decision.

I know nothing about muscle implants. I just want to compliment you on your picture. Muscular fits you well, I think with some hard work you will prob be able to accomplish your goals.

*I confess that yesterday I went to eat dinner and ordered a margarita....and sipped on it while I ate my 4 ounces of food. *I confess that I dont exercise. *I confess that everyday after work I go home and take a nap, because I'm tired (can anyone say Vitamin deficiency, gotta get that checked out). *I confess that I bought ww snack size ice cream and have one every other day and love it.

Wow you look great!!!!

The gym... Save the bike for a goal reward.
