Have you noticed people treating you differently?
Chrystee replied to Chrystee's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I actually find some women being nicer to me too.. like in the grocery store, striking up a conversation.. which I never had before either.. -

Chrystee replied to Chrystee's topic in WLS Veteran's Forum
I'm not really resentful.. the attention is sometimes a little weird for me.. I've always dressed well, worked out.. and done my makeup and hair.. but I actually feel pretty. I've always been told I had a good personality.. I don't really blame anyone.. I'm superficial at times myself. -

I run with headphones, so I wouldn't know.. I also run with a 90 pound American Bulldog.. I have also thought about getting a small can of mace I can clip to his leash just in case..

You have to get over some of this mentality. I used to go to the gym religiously even at 318 pounds. No one cares that you are there.. no one is judging you.. I found my best friends through the gym and we encourage each other. I run outside. I bike outside.. You can work out at home too, but I find myself more motivated with fit friends.

Kettlebells are awesome, and you can use them in many different ways! I would go with Kettlebells.

I would not agree to the "every single person...ends up getting another addiction". Just because "never" and "always" are words to be wary of. It doesn't have to be a bad addiction people get addicted to bicycling and skydiving and eating healthy and other aspects of life being addicted to something is not always a bad thing... Although I like really hate CrossFit Fanatics lol whoa.. wait.. why you hatin on crossfitters?

BTW, I wouldn't think any less of anyone using a gofundme acct.. like others said, its up to the giver if they want to give. I've donated to some.. recently a friend whose dog needed emergency surgery.. I've been there.

When did you start exercising?
Chrystee replied to reesecup2626's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
@@JamieLogical Slight jogging for me was 3.5-4 mph on the treadmill.. in bursts of maybe 30 seconds or so.. But yea.. the only thing he didn't want me doing was weightlifting, but he said as long as I felt ok.. what hurt me was going for my 3 or 4 week checkup and being 280 (34 pounds lost by then) and him telling me to start doing longer running distances and the NUT saying, Doc, this girl CAN'T run at 280 POUNDS! I was like, um, maam, I can.. do.. and will.. so... -
When did you start exercising?
Chrystee replied to reesecup2626's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I was walking around the hospital the day of and after surgery. 3 days post op I was walking on the treadmill.. a week later (about) slight jogging.. 2 weeks post, spin class.. 4 weeks post light weightlifting and 6 weeks post, back to full movement.. but I was very active pre-surgery. -
Hey OP! Glad you are getting your surgery! Keep us updated!

Happiness = running for 4 miles as if its no big deal..

Chrystee replied to Inner Surfer Girl's topic in Regular foods (stage 4)
Ooh, these sound interesting! Lord! We got through about 10 a week.. if not more. My 2.5 year old will eat a whole one with dinner. -

<p>I don't really have a "schedule".. I go either once or twice day. Either the gym, or at home.. I run a lot.. I do weights.. I cycle.. I try to get it in whenever I can. Some days I run at lunch and weight train at night..</p> <p> </p> <p>I have always worked out, so I was walking when I got home from surgery. I was jogging at 4 days post op, and I think I went back to spinning 2 weeks after with light weights. At a month out I was back to my full schedule, with mild weights.. back to heavy weightlifting at 6 weeks.</p>

How sad is this?
Chrystee replied to JamieLogical's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I got rid of cable.. Helps a lot actually.. -
I have been to gym everyday and still in stall!
Chrystee replied to grandmaofone's topic in Fitness & Exercise
I work out a LOT. I've noticed a pattern to my body.. stall for about 2.5 weeks, then drop a bunch of weight (5 pounds) then stall again.. During the stall though, I am definitely losing inches. -
If you are going to be increasing in distance and in speed.. you need lots of stretching.. Do you do yoga? I would recommend at least one yoga workout a week..
