I started running last year. I now run every chance I get. On the weekends when I'm not working I do 2 miles in the am and 2 in the pm. I never thought I would be able to run again. Nor did I ever think that I would see the other side of the 200's. :) The journey has been a great one for me. I re-discovered life!!!! It is sooo amazing!!!! Wishing everyone much success on your journey!!!! :)

I am 8 months post up and I started running again in November with the couch to 5K app. Now I'm doing up to 14 miles averaging 25 miles a week. I've also registered for a couple half marathons this year and I will move on to full marathons next year.... baby steps:) I do Water or water/gatorade mix when I run for over 2hours. I also take GU with me. It has caffiene and I know we're not suppose to have that but I one use it on my long weekend runs. Post run I have chocolate milk and a scoop of Protein for recovery. I also cut a banana in have and have a piece before my run with a slice of whole wheat toast and pnb, eat the other half after workout. I haven't had any reactions to anything... After burning 1600 calories during a run, I wanna eat the whole house but it's weird only being able to consume so much....I find the liquid goes down faster than trying to eat a meal post run since you have to get in in within 30 minutes. I also make a shake with the chocolate milk, scoop of pnb, chocolate protein, frozen banana pieces and a tsp of Decaf coffee granules.....So yummy!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
