Hit 85lb weight loss goal!
I joined MFP years ago, but I got serious about my weight loss in January, 2020 after suffering from pulmonary embolisms and being diagnosed with a heart defect. I know myself pretty well and after several weigh loss failures, I decided to make a plan I felt was feasible for me. I stuck to a plant-based diet, set my…

NSV - Fat, Weight Loss and Amusement Parks: Expectations vs. Reality
My stomach sunk as history repeated itself. “Ma’am, can we have you move to another seat that can accommodate riders of a larger size?” I had been here before, you see, I have a complicated relationship with amusement park rides, fear, sickness, love, exhilaration, and shame all rolled into one complex emotion. As a child,…

Before & After - Recovering From Shoulder Labral Repair on Both Arms!
I've been dealing with shoulder issues as long as I can remember. When I was a kid, I thought my shoulders were "double jointed", and I used to move them around to impress my friends (insert sad laughter here). I played baseball and golf, and it didn't bother me too much. A couple times a year, my shoulder would subluxate,…

A Looooong Journey

I continued to work out, play hockey, cycle, most importantly I trained Jiu Jitsu and meditated. However, nothing seemed to change. It wasn’t until I started weighing my food and being…

Back in April last year my company gave everyone two black masks. I wore one of them a couple of times but it was miserable. It moved when I talked or laughed and would never stay below my chin. This morning I grabbed a mask out of my mask basket and as I was walking out I realized it was ONE OF THOSE. I geared my self up…
