Take care. Thinking of you. Get some rest.

Interesting. My thin gorgeous friends are the ones telling me not to lose and be happy the way I am. I outweigh them all by 50-60 pounds yet.

Concept2 makes a skierg, haven’t looked too closely at it though.

I have something like that. It’s in both of the legs but one more than the other. I’ve asked my family physician and my orthopedic surgeon about it and they’ve both said they didn’t think it was anything concerning. Mine is very noticeable, like an invisible band wrapped around my leg. I hate it. I’ve been foam rolling…

Dairy also has never had an effect on me. Tried many elimination diets over the years, but finally bit the bullet and tried accutane. Best thing I’ve ever done, 6 months of the most sensitive skin you could ever imagine was the worst part. But haven’t had a breakout in a year and a half.

@BrianSharpe @geraldaltman Thank you both very much for your replies! I will definitely be using a pool to get started again. Strength training has become a big, and healing part of my life, I don’t want to lose it if at all possible 😊

@BrianSharpe Thank you so much!

He gave me a go ahead for “someday”. I won’t be able to speak with him for another month. I’m just looking for a ray of hope if it has actually been accomplished by others. The people in my life with knee replacements do not exercise so it doesn’t pay to ask them.

I’ve been doing these too with the Mission Organics whole wheat. I usually do tomatoes basil and fresh mozzarella in the toaster over. So pretty and delicious.

Last night I dreamt I was eating a chocolate soufflé and woke up licking my lips, it was so real. But my best ones I can’t say here.

To the pirate replies, yes!!! I’ve always wanted to swing through the rigging with a knife in my teeth, ready to swashbuckle as soon I hit the deck.

Climb Everest. But I don’t really like being cold.

I did the black bean sweet potato enchiladas from the blog and they were crazy good.

I really like your glasses.

Beautiful, just beautiful. Great job!

I think though people are attracted to a certain physique, that isn’t necessarily what they end up with. Because there is more to someone than their body. I am attracted to a certain type of fit. I ended up with a dad bod. I’m sure he ( my husband) is attracted to certain type of woman as well, and he ended up with…

You have a great heart man. Thank you for sharing it with us.

From what I’ve read in the commments section of his video, that seems to be common. I don’t use a public gym, and I have no tricep ropes myself. I use a resistance band instead ( I pretty sure he said it’s an okay substitution if you have to) and it’s worked pretty well for me. It was hard to find one with just the right…

I like thunderstorms. Yes, I feel the dreary days give me the most energy. My sister and I are the only ones I know that scream “ I love the gloom!” to mopey coworkers on rainy days. The sunlight hurts my eyes, even with sunglasses.

And I’m not saying he’s the be-all end-all, just saying I’ve found his corrective Face Pull method to really help with my posture. I don’t care if he gets a million likes or five, I like him because what he has suggested has helped me this far. But maybe let’s get back on task to the posture suggestions😊

Check out the Face Pull videos by Athlean X on you tube. I found it quite helpful.

I think this thread needs more posters! I need some inspiration!

Small town here too. I don’t run, maybe walk briskly, but no run. I don’t want to fall, or give any bounce for someone to laugh at.

I think what’s important is that you separate why you are losing ( for your health ) from why your family would like you to be smaller ( probably looks/ something more superficial) If you know you are doing it for your health, you can let go of some of that guilt. I have felt something similar to this guilt, my mother is…

All your photos look good to me! Hard work you’re doing there, great job!
