NSV! Photo whoring! (Okay, totally over posting today!)
I had a work out with my trainer today. He is making me foam roll my quads and IT bands, hamstrings, glutes and calves before my workouts until my leg is fully healed. Foam rolling hurts like hell, if you didn't know. Just saying....
Anyhow, so I wouldn't forget each individual roll position he took pictures and texted them to me. I did not die when I saw them. I did not look "Fat". I thought I looked good. That is a huge NSV for me. Some of you know I have real issues with body image that go way back to childhood, so actually liking a picture that shows my body is a big deal.
So, I'm sharing.... Like an elementary school kid... This pic sort of made my day....
You look awesome!!! This may be a great picture to include with the article you are writing !
My massage therapist highly recommends rolling to release toxins. Keep up the great work !!

You look super and fit. Way to go. Foam roller ing does hurt like hell I try to do it a after I run it seems to help with my leg cramps, that with a few yoga stretches.
Keep up the awesome work.
Dr Ponce de Leon Mexico VSG 4 Jun 12. I lost 57 lbs on my own before having a VSG. This is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself.
My guy makes me (or at least advises) that I roll every day. When he travels, he actually packs a stubby roller so he can roll in the hotel room! I did this exact move with him on Tue. Yes, can hurt like hell! And it is boring! If only I could surf the web while I do it. I have found that audio books help.
You look great! Congratulations!
