I went skydiving after a double transplant, removal of 15” of small intestine and a 96 pound weight loss over a span of 2 years(2009-2011). If I were to do it again, would skip or have a very light breakfast and wear a 3/4 or long sleeve shirt. It was 84 degrees when I jumped, so not all that cold at altitude. Family bought me a video of the jump and you can see my loose arm skin flapping all the way down. As for breakfast, when you pull the cord, it’s like somebody giving you the Heimlich maneuver. Just my experience. It may not be yours. It really is a lot of fun so enjoy the experience.FeelingFroggy13 wrote: »
Thank you! If I am honest with myself, I knew in my heart, I might not enjoy the photos of my much looser facial skin...I didn't think about the shirt/arms. Maybe others that have not been through all this might find that a bit vain...but dangit, I have worked hard to get here, and it's fun to show off a bit! I appreciate the input, both on the breakfast and the apparel!1 -
@FeelingFroggy13. You’re welcome. You. Will enjoy it! I did it tandem cuz not coordinated. Took the full minute free fall that they advertised(because I’m that kind of person). It was like flying until the Heimlich. Then it pulls you up then you slowly drift down. Prepare to be running when you hit the ground to avoid face planting. I would do it again if it was closer to me. The views are awesome and so is the flying feeling! You will feel amazing afterwards.
Post or dm me. I would love to hear from you after you jump.2 -

My mini goal is to continue to be mindful of my eating over the next couple of weeks. I want to indulge a bit for Christmas (and I will), but I don't want to indulge so much that I fall back into the "well this day is blown so all bets are off" mentality either. This is not just a goal about my weight, but about continuing to feel good. Previous holidays have seen terrible bouts of heartburn, etc.. Really, no cookie or beverage is worth feeling like that again.
I guess what I'm saying is: my goal is to "check myself before I wreck myself".

Just to keep going one day at a time until I am at a weight I am happy with fat wise and my muscles are as big as I decide they need to be.11

Maintaining my weight through the holidays - abd it’s working! Logging everything, weighing daily, but eating at maintenance (giving myself enough room to enjoy special meals) is working. Come January I’ll be able to pick off where I left off without feeling like a failure. Feels amazing.8

I want to lose 1.4 pounds before Jan 1, 2022.5

I met my last mini goal of being under 180lbs. My next mini goal is 175lbs. New Years Eve is going to be my "Indulge Day", but I'll be right back at it the next day. Happy New Year everyone!5

I had to stop weighing every day bc it was dragging me down instead of encouraging me. So my bitty goal is to get 10,000 steps and/or 13/13 of 250 steps an hour (Fitbit goals) every day for the rest of this year. If I do it, I get a glittery heart sticker (bc I'm taking care of my heart!) on my calendar.
Stretch goal would be to earn a star every day, for staying at or under my calorie goal. But I'm focused on the exercise first bc that's how I get myself to eat better.12 -
Got an Apple Watch for Christmas. My goal is to get those darn exercise and movement goals every day.10

To be able to have the confidence to go on a date in June XD11

Mini goal? Get 250 steps an hour for 4 hours today. I know it's not much, but it's more than I've been doing and progress is what I'm after. I'm still taking it slowly. My next 5 pounds is calling.16

Water & yoga. I'm working on my water intake & even a ten minute yoga session a day really helps for flexibility and its exercise for me. Trying to work on this every day for a leat a week 9

I like this. I've been wanting to add yoga back in, but I overdid in the exercise department in November and hurt myself. The 10 minutes a day idea is a good one! I should be able to manage that without injury. Thanks for posting.
