Patrick Curl 424 Posted April 29, 2013 Hey, I haven't posted in QUITE awhile, sometimes I have good days sometimes I don't.. I don't always eat right, but I can't stuff myself like before... I'm actually thinking of trying out for the Biggest loser, because I could really use some psycho-analysis from Jillian, and some good fitness coaching.... I've recently broken the 500 pound mark. I started at 670, lost 20 pre-op, and 150 post op. If I can get to 470 (currently 495, that will be 200 since I began the Journey last May- - if I can get to 450 by July 2nd, that will also be 200 since my surgery... those are my two goals for now.... Here's some updated pics, showing my progress. 15 Keepgoing247, beckyk, Zazous and 12 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MIJourney 490 Posted April 29, 2013 WOW and congrats! That's a huge amount to lose in just a year. Good for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RebecaSparkles 247 Posted April 29, 2013 Awesome job! Keep up the hard work! I'd discourage the biggest looser bc you can google how horridly they treat the contestants. Make them exercise with injuries & they dehydrate themselves before weigh in so they don't get cut. I think that a good personal trainer that is local to you can be of help. They may be persuaded to take you on probono. I also would look into some Of the freebie fitness routines on youtube/ on demand & have your dr say if they're appropriate for you? Good luck! allons-y Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet you can feel a big difference in your energy and health. You have lost a whole man, that you used to carry around 24/7!!! Bet you couldn't even lift 175lbs, imagine carrying it?

No game 14,437 Posted April 29, 2013 Patrick you are doing so good! I can say I understand the good day bad day thing, a lot of us are having the same struggles. Please don't be a stranger on here. checking in daily here is really helping with those hard days for me. When I'm not strong enough, there are people here that help prop me up until I'm able to stand again. And when they are having a hard day I am there to do the propping. And we would do the same for you 2 ProudGrammy and MrsG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
