When I first started this journey, I could not walk one block without needing to stop due to back pain and breathlessness. Today, I walked 2.7 miles. I was slow -- it took me an hour and 16 minutes -- but my back held up, and I felt really good and grateful the whole time. :)

Anyone else have any non-scale victories to share?

Congrates good job!! Its very addicting. I find myself thinking about my walks while I'm at work I can't wait to get home and go walk. I take off for 1 1/2 - 2hrs a day I love it. I listen to music and it's great for thinking about anything you want to think about.. alone time...me time.... it's wonderful..

Thank you! I agree--walking is wonderful, especially outside (treadmill is a bit boring). I can't wait to be able to travel and walk, walk, walk. Glad you are loving life!

Thank you! That's fabulous! I hope you have a wonderful time. Ziplining scares me, I will admit.

Good that you want and looking forward to zip lining. You won't have me joining you there. I have acrophobia, fear of heights, I get more than 1 or 2 stories and the panic monster wants to take over. Sweaty palms, nausea. and wanting somewhere I can be safe, hidden and treated kindly. Yeah I've got it bad and that isn't good. I can't remember a time I wasn't scared of heights, even when I was normal proportioned as a little girl, maybe there is something sad about a fat woman who's crying like a small child. So I try to keep my feet on solid ground.[emoji20]

      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.
