Today is my 70th birthday. AND I'M 14 months post op. Definitely a better day then one yr ago.
I can now walk 9500 steps a day. Little groin discomfort when I do. Got my life back
Also I have met my weight loss goal. I have lost 75 pounds..
I'm at I hop going to have butter milk pancakes for the first time in five yrs. By self but that's ok
Then off to the fitness center.
Well first and foremost many happy returns, Ginger. As to your eating habits - tut-tut - that's 5 pouinds back on again straIght away. You do offer some encouragement about my part-reliance on the stick after 11 weeks. By coincidence I actually started at the fitness centre today and did 15 mins on the exercise bike (though only at a sissy Level 2).
Have a great day.
That's great start michaelo. At 16weeks I went back to the fitness center full time 30min carido and strengthening. Although slow but steady.
Keep up the good exercise

Happy Bithday. I hope you have a really good day and that the pancakes are as good as you hoped, How did you do it I really really need to lose weight before my second hip.but I have a the wiilpower of a slug or possibly not even that much I could do with advice from someone who has done it rather than from people who know they could if they had to !
My best wt loss is through a program simple 2 loose. I have a coach to encourage me during plateau. They use medifast products. My coach lost 100 pounds in six months with out exercise. Second 100lbs in total 18 months..
I have five small meals and one lean and green each day.
I will start transition next week to maintenance.
Happy Birthday, what a great sucess you are. To be able to walk like that and to obtain your weight loss, youare my hero. HAve a grand day.
Would like to know everyone's weight loss plans. I desperately need to lose.
Happy Birthday Ginger! Well done for all your achievements! Why not spoil yourself a little, you deserve it, and the bill payment... Icing on your birthday cake!
All the best

Happy Day, Ginger, I am finding that my weight is already dropping. I guess it takes the body more energy to heal.
I am an expert at bum clenches and hoping that my bottom will cease to look blobby very soon.
I admire your fight to get the pounds off..enjoy every mouthful of those pancakes.
