7 miles, 410 crunches today, tomorrow gym day, all upper body

Ouch??? You ok Dody?

*Gigglesnorts* *Throws a dart at P'Nut's Madonna pointy Eygptian bewbies breast plate." BINGO!!!

I don't know what it is about running that makes me feel free. It is not competitive. It's free from that. I feel things that I'd like to try and put into words. My heart races within me, fighting to beat through my chest. Beads drip down my neck. My eyes blinded by my own sweat. I feel free of pain. Free of worries. Further down, miles away, I feel some discomfort, pain echoes through me. Pain.. in my sides soon turns into numbing . The numb feeling goes away. My mind ignores it. My feet ... are they mine? I see my knee caps, one after another. My feet, a blurr. I don't know how fast I'm moving but I feel like I'm flying. My head, arms and legs moving in sync to the beat of the song in my iPod. "Turn it up" Chamillionare My arms move with full force, one after another, propelling me forward. Pulling myself forward, faster, harder. I'm growing stronger. I can see it, I've got my eyes on the prize. Miles go by and I'm still alive. The sun beams, burning the nape of my neck, my arms, my chest, my ankles. My sunglasses, shielding my eyes from the rays. Shielding bugs from my eyes. Miles pass by.. My heart races faster, it's not finished but I am for now... I breathe, focusing on my pace, talking my heart back down... I see the prize.....Telly

Here I am. My weight loss simulator errrmmm.... simulated me. http://www.mvm.com/en/go_shopping.htm#

Last 30lbs will be tough I'm sure but... I need to see what's waiting for me on the other side.. *winks at Aussie chick*

Ahhh, GOAL! My future parking place.

Yay for your gorgeous body. I can't wait. You are making me antsy!

If you think a Mohawk is beautiful, then....ok.. I wear one.. spike it up in the middle. Ok, you CAN lose hair due to the following: Rapid Weigh Loss Crash Dieting Traumatic Surgery Anesthesia Hormonal changes - thyroid changes I don't know a percentage but I can tell you that alot of RNY and Lapbanded patients..here and on Obesityhelp.com have gone through hair loss. According to my Dermatologist, I'm shedding double or triple what people normally do per day. Not bald yet, but I can see scalp. I also see reddish/brown hairs coming in.

Esquerdo... I'M GONNA GET YOU!!! I'M SOOOOO GONNA GET YOU!

Losha, doc says 6 weeks before you can lift weights or even crunches. If you do crunches before then, my guess is it could directly upset your stitches of the port to your muscle. I wouldn't risk it. *Is it stitched to the muscle? I'm not sure.* Did 3 miles and 400 crunches today.

Kim, may I say that your extended family is blessed to have you. You're doing something great. You didn't have to do this but it just goes to show how wonderful you are and how much you care.

Ok now Pinkylee you've got me all giggly and smiling, all shiny over here. Why'd you do that? Huh? LOL.. thank you. That's sweet of you to say.. but I think I'm just a pain in the ass on this forum.

Since i've taken Biotin and my multi-vitamins, my skin is unbelievable! I'm not kidding. My nails grow hard and strong.

What the...... *Telly is finally lost*

Can we say.."Minute man?"

It's against my religion to blatantly kill anything.. lol I get about 4 napkins and go to grab them. If they die during this process then I am not a murderer.. but if they live, then I let them go outside, releasing them from the napkins.

P'Nut, you are loved. I hope you know that.

I am in a Stucco home, so that includes me. Uggh!

Nothing from the "insect" species will ever enter my mouth unless it's from me biking or riding. :speechles

Thank you Cadydid and Aussie chick. Your posts helps me greatly. I feel better equipped for this surgery. I will have it done in a few months. I am loathing the drains. Aussie Chick, your profile on obesityhelp.com was pretty cool. I love the ring btw. Your progress has been well journalized. I would like to redo mine, too bad though I was too shy to have my husband take pics of me so I took them myself with my web cam. Got too many grainy pics. Thanks ladies.. helps bunches.

Wow Heathergurl, we are the same size jeans. How cool is that?
