Hey Tammy! Today is my yesterday..cuz I workout after work..so Im posting this today and tomorrow I will post for today! 3 days straight! Did you get that? Treadmill - 32 mins- var. speeds & inclines Precor - Stairmaster- 100%handsfree -28mins - this is now my fav thing I was using 3lb handweights on the Precor!! I'm so happy with my progress! Weights - 3sets - 30each- ABS crunch / 3 sets hamstring No Water Action today- no time Oh and when I got home- I fell again- outside the bathroom- and fell forward- and my lower right arm is very sore and hurts. I think its the tendon. Do we have tendons in our lower arms (elbow to wrist)? So now I have double the reasons to hit the sauna and hot tub. Oh and I lost 2.5lbs so far this week- so changing my order in which I workout and also changing which type weights I am using- has also helped..But I am still stuck in the 212s. One day I wanna wake up and just BE. LOL Whatever I am supposed to BE. And then stay there. YA! FAT CHANCE! Hugs, Donna

Hey Torrey! I have a problem with these as well. They are fatty tumors (fatty deposits), however, I did have this problem before having weight issues in my life, even when I was pretty thin, but not as bad as now. It seems to run in my family, but I am interested in what the surgeon comes back with. My internist says as long as it feels round and moves around easliy under the skin it is usually just a fatty tumor. Take care!

Torrey, If you check out my weight loss chart on my profile, you'll see that my weight loss really slowed down for May (2 lb loss) & June( only 1/2 lb) 2 1/2 lbs total from May 1st through June 30th. However, it seems over the last couple weeks, the scale seemed to start to move again I've already shown a 4-5 lb (depending on the day) loss since the 1st of July. I'm not sure if it's because it's my bodies time to lose or if it's because I've been bike riding pretty much every day this month .... But I'll take the numbers going down. I haven't measured since May 24th, when I measured then I had lost 10 inches over my entire body (i measure everything that could possibly lose inches)... So, I know as of then I wasn't on a plateau...just stalled out a little. It'll be interesting to see my next measurement. At any rate....looks like were are in the same boat, hopefully, your scale will start moving again soon. Tammy

Thanky you so much Tammy! ((((HUGS)))) She is in alot of pain today poor baby! Going to go sit with her on my lunch break. H ave a great day! sheree

Ok, first of all girls....look at all the responses to my exercise post from yesterday......................... Can I say....YIPPEEE ?????? Looks like everyone is getting re-motivated or staying right on track....GOOD FOR US I can't say how good it feels to be back exercising everyday. I know, I probably mention it daily, but, hey, I repeat myself I'm a little we all know that by now. Anyway, I'm so proud of everyone. We all seem to have these hectic lives just spinning around us & we're keeping our focus & making time for us. We all know how important that is. The stress level for me has been extremely high & without that release from exercise, I would probably explode ..... So remember, everyone.... here's a new motto for us........."THERE'S ALWAYS 30 MINUTES FOR ME" On the exercise front... Was up bright & early this morning & went for about a 5 mile bike ride. Trying to push myself a little harder to change it up a little. Don't want my body to get used to the same thing every day. Took a different route this morning. So now, I gotta hit the shower, work for a little bit, bring my youngest to the orthodontist to get her appliances on to begin her braces journey (number 3 & done...wooo hooo), then come home & work work work to get more overtime in.... oh on the scale front.... I did get on this morning & of course I'm starting the teeter totter teeter totter, but I felt like I munched all day yesterday & I didn't have a protein drink.... So, ok I saw 100 lb loss yesterday....it'll be back. July 2 189.5 July 3 189.5 July 4 188.5 July 5 186.5 (2.5lbs from 100lbs since surgery) July 6 186.5 July 7 187 July 8 186 yeah July 9 185 July 10 184 July 11 185.5 Have a great day everyone.... ((((HUGS)))) & Tammy
