I restarted c25k today and, though it was hard, I loved it. As someone who hated running their whole life and got shin splints and all sorts of nasties I highly reccommend the interval format. I only stopped last year because I broke my ankle (yes while jogging, no not any fault of the c25k program).

Organ Shifting?
cherrybombknits replied to meredith004's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The organs also don't have all the fat cushioning them, so they may be resettling. Ewwwww. -
Top 10 Mistakes After Wls
cherrybombknits replied to chad2rad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Putting this on my fridge too. I'm finding that having pre-portioned servings of good stuff keeps me from reaching for the bad stuff. -
Last night Hubbster and I went to El Torito. We ordered one fajita entree and I had a little bit of the chicken. We were both stuffed and still had leftovers.

120Lbs Unreasonable?
cherrybombknits replied to CJsmom84's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I sure hope not. I am aiming for 110 lbs (250 to 140) and was told that my goal was "very reasonable". I think my chart weight is supposed to be in the 120's, but I looked awesome when I was at 140 and my BMI will be "normal". I get a little giddy just typing that :-) -

What's Your New Addiction?
cherrybombknits replied to SkinnyMinnie2Be's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The sad thing is I haven't even used mine yet, maybe tonight. I am trying to get addicted to running, started c25k again today. I stopped a year ago when I broke my ankle jogging and want to pick it back up. I would love to run the 5k at Disneyland next summer. -

My Advice To All Newly Post-Op Sleevers...
cherrybombknits replied to JimmyGotSLEEVED's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Would kettlebells be as effective as the other weights? I like the idea of a handle on my big heavy things. -

*When I'm sick I still want a piece of sourdough toast with butter. *I am eating things now (meat, dairy) that I would never had eaten on a "diet". Feels so decadent. *Hubby works out 60 mins a day plus walks with me. I don't want to work out that much. *I want to punch the skinny teenagers that titter at my aquarobics class right in the mouths. *Deep down I still don't think the sleeve will "work". -
Fmla (Medical Leave)

A little thread-jack: A friend of mine was out of work due to chicken pox. Her supervisor called to discuss the status of her STD. Friend got all upset and started explaining that chicken pox wasn't a sexually-transmitted disease. Another reason to love short-term disability. -
I asked to have mine taken out. The internist reminded me that removing a healthy organ is malpractice.

Frustrated And Needing Motivation!

My husband has lost 37 lbs using just the Wii Fit (not sleeved). It is very private and the fun exercises are motivating. If it works for you work it :-) -
Yes It Happened...and Yes It Made Me Sad.
cherrybombknits replied to Slenderella's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hope surgery went well Aimstergirl! OP this is exactly why I kept the nature of my surgery to myself. I only see my coworkers a few times a year so I don't think my wl will be that big of a deal. I DO have a family reunion in about a month and know I will get the snarky "easy way" comments from my evil stepmother. I can't wait to stare at her rump and ask how the "hard" way is working for her. -
My surgeon actually cut through my tattoo. It looks like once it heals you won't be able to see the scar. [ATTACH]5825[/ATTACH]

I completely understand. It is so weird to have to put half a yogurt cup back in the fridge.

Thanks Pip! I've been waiting three days for a response from my surgeon's office. Will try the Flinstones. 10 million strong and shrinking!
