Kelly, once a week i go to a outdoor bootcamp with a personal trainer. He once was very very obese and now is buff . He focus's on Bariatric patients getting fit! i love it! im also in love with my zumba classes and my new gym! -
I got a fill about 2 weeks ago and really am eating egg size meals not because i don't want to eat more , i just can't . The fabulous part of all this is the fact im dropping the lbs fast!! I was at a literal 2 month plateau. Ive gone from 195.5 to 187.6 in less than two weeks ....im impressed and happy!! anything like this happen for you all?? Jennifer

I finally am out of the 190's and into the 180's!!!!! I had to do two things to get going again. 1. a fill and am at the sweet spot and 2. kick up the excercize. I do a boot camp on sundays and the gym 3 days a week and sometimes add in a zumba class. At support group i heard how people don't have "time" for excercize. I work over 50 hours a week and am raising kids who play sports and i was happy to say you can make the time if you want to. How are you all doing??? Jennifer
