Great Job everyone! @Mikee57 nice pic!

I got in a nice long bike ride today in the beautiful St. Louis weather. My first longer ride of the year. Felt great. I think I'm doing a ride from St. Louis to Springield, IL ( 114 miles ) coming up the end of May, so I better get to logging some time in the saddle! Happy Sunday all.

Todays ride was a little over three hours.

Boxing class today. I felt adventurous and attempted a few things during the warm up and the core sections that previously I was afraid to do (bad knees and all). And I made it through the whole class with no breaks. Good day!

Great job have u been back to trx ?

Ran that treadmill drill work out again. I started. At 7.2 on treadmill for speed n ended workout at 8.0 my heart rate was at. 96% according to my heart rate monitor awesome workout today n then errands all day walking and such I'm gonna sleep like a baby tonight :)

Congrats....and You're fast! 8.0.....Thats a 7:30 mile! Just curious, how long do you stay at 96% max HR? I haven't been able to sustain that zone for long and am envious.

I went roller skating for the first time in over 25 years yesterday afternoon! It took a while getting the hang of it again but once I got my balance under control, I had a blast and skated over an hour with my two teenage sons!

      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.
