Are You One Tough Mudder?!?!?!?!?



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone.. i was just wondering if there was anyone in the sac, ca area that would like to train for the tough mudder with me.

it will be a great way to kick up your weightloss as well as get mentally and physically in shape.. im tellin you right now that it wont be easy but when you complete the competition you will feel so free of anything that was keeping you down before, because if you can do THIS....YOU CAN DO ANYTHING!!!!!

I am shooting for the Sept 2012 competition in TAHOE.. but im willing to also recognize that i just had surgery and that i don't think i will have built up the stamina needed to compete that early so worse case senario, i start training now and wait till next year FEB to compete in the bay area.

It would be really nice to start up a team and do it together, but i know not everyone has the same level of fitness ability. So if you are interested let me know.. because i am going to start training ASAP!

and for those of you that just want to see the journey i will document it.. pictures and all.. and its gonna be sweat, blood and tears!

I wished I lived near you (and had already had the surgery) as my goal is to do Tough Mudder one year after my surgery. It looks like so much fun and like the experience of a lifetime! Good luck with your training and keep us posted, as I would be interested in knowing what you think of it!

Less i was in the middle of drinkin some Water when i read this and litterally spit it every where i was laughing so hard.. lol girl you are crazy!!! that was too cute.. its intense i know, but its definitely worth while... cuz when you finish the race even if its last place you will have accomplished something that only about 3% of the population could achieve. lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
