What are you eating/doing today? (Thursday)

I totally understand. I kept my eyes closed through the whole thing and felt lightheaded when I got off. I like gentler rides like haunted mansion and pirates of the Caribbean.

Wow Zizzler you rock. I'll come back later and post, lots to get done this morning. 

Yes!  I did a 5k walk for MS on Sunday.  I've never been able to do more than 3k without severe chafing issues (bleeding).  

Also, I am standing at work when talking to people instead of pulling up a chair.  Before surgery, I could stand for maybe a minute, then I'd be in so much pain I'd need a chair.  Now I can stand for half an hour and I'm fine!

That is awesome!  I was the same pre-op, every step was painful.  You will see over time many more positive changes, enjoy the ride!

Morning all. Well done Z for the accomplishment. It's little things like that we make a big deal of with and understand. Imagine how hard it was for me at 400 lb. to do anything, even taking a shower used to be a chore, honestly i don't see how those people on 600 lb. life get into the shower as often as they do.

Yesterday i went to the gym TWICE, now thats something i didn't do before, lol. Worked out quite a sweat as well too. Today i'm going just once for Zumba and weights around 6pm. I love being off school because i take care of myself better and eat less too.

Your eggs benedict sounds totally awesome, going to have to try that.

Hey there, that is awesome you have more time to take care of yourself.  I thought the same thing when watching that show, it must be so hard. I actually find it painful to watch now that I am smaller, it scares me to think that it would not be difficult to gain the weight back. At 300lbs I was basically feeling like a prisoner in my own body, so 600lbs must be so much harder.  Doing anything was like running a marathon.

Congratulations Zizzler. That is a great accomplishment.

I have not been feeling well lately with a head cold. Hoping it goes away soon.
