What have you done to treat yourself, post-weight loss?



Recommended Posts

8 months post-surgery, 150lbs+ lost, and celebrating life this summer, I finally bought the car I've wanted since I was a fat, poor, 18 year old... a Miata. :)

My "excuse" is that my son is getting his permit in December and I really want him to learn to drive a stick (our other cars are autos). Miata's are now very cheap used cars, though deeply impractical in the most delicious way possible. We're stoked. :)

What have you done to

This is sooo awesome it made me smile! I was thinking what is a small car I never could fit in that I wanted too! How funny. Very cool! :D

That's awesome!

For me, it's the obvious--clothes shopping! It's fun now! And I have so many options, instead of just getting what I can find that fits.

Not to mention his son! Good that he's learning stick first!

Awesome! I hope it's a fun car - as much as you hoped it to be.

My small car that i could never fit in would be the 67 ac cobra. Much appreciate the Miata's though as far as a road course car they're hard to beat.

That's funny, my car that I would like to treat my self to is a little baja bug, they are way fun if you are skinny enough to fit in them.

      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.
