So, I completed my first 5K since surgery last May. Did it in 44:31 only ran about a third of it and walked the rest. This time last year I never imagined myself doing this. It was amazing. I actually felt like crying afterwards, but being the big badass I think I am....i held it back. So here are a few pics of before the surgery and on 5K day! And lucky me the beautiful girl next to me is my soon to be wife on April 14th!

Awesome!! I signed up for a Color Me Rad 5K in June. I had surgery 2/19. It will be my first 5K and my first attempt to really learn to run. I don't really expect that I'll be ready to run the whole thing, but i intend to keep it fun and moving forward. Congrats!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
