Welcome, glad you found us. We're all at what I call the 'tween' stage. No longer a newbie but plugging a long in search of goal. It can be frustrating despite our progress.
Big pat on the back for your success.

Welcome Rick, and WOW! What a great job you've been doing, and for going on 3 yrs! I'm glad you are still plugging along. At times I run across posters who pretty much have thrown in the towel at stalls or when they aren't at goal when they wanted to be. So, thanks for showing us that sure and steady is winning the race!
Have a wonderful holiday!
Hugs,
Kathy

Thanks Cathy. I was a bit sore today, and unfortunately I don't have a tub, but a Swedish shower. So I went to the gym, swam for a bit to loosen up, then sat strategically in the jacuzzi, making sure to get jets on my knees, shoulder and back. I am sure I looked a bit like Gumby or the Circus contortionist! It helped though!
Hugs,
K.

Greetings,
I just found this board and want to say thanks for all the posts. I had my RnY Feb 06 and have lost a total of 170 pounds so far. I have a long way to go and like others that have posted, I hit a major plateau that lasted for 7 weeks.......It was driving me crazy. I started to have doubts and just kept with the doctors protocol and it finally broke but my loss has slowed WAY down. I wanted to be under 300 pounds at my 9 month aniversary but it didnt happen (fell 6 pounds short).
Anyway, just wanted to say great job everyone and keep up the great work.
Have a great day..........Rick

Congratulations on you run! I am so happy for you. If your sore get some epsom salt and soak in a bath for about 30 minutes with help you. You wont feel it when your in there but after you get out you will. 
Congratulations once again
Congratulations once again Topic: RE: COMPLETED A GOAL - Did another 5K Today!
Thanks Alli! About 15 yrs. ago, when I was in college, I took a walking/strength training class. I started to get shin splints from my power walking stance, so the instructor told me to start "Jogging". So I did, and loved it. Of course life then got in the way, and the weight came on...then it was impossible, and actually I never would have attempted it at a heavier weight. When the Halloween 5K came up, I thought about it, and signed up with a few co-workers. I was amazed I finished!
So, I invested in a really good pair or running shoes, and signed up for another one! I must admit, the courses have been rather hilly, so there is some walking/hiking up hills, jogging/power walking the levels, and running like the wind down hills. Really a mixed bag!!
I will be sore, but not as sore as I was after the first one! As long as my knee holds up, I think I will keep pushing myself. No fainting, no heart attack, no falls....just pure adrenalaine!
