I had this also, and for several months almost a year I couldn't do anything. But keept walking anyway or I should sy tried. After I had my stomach bypass and lost some weight the swelling went down and now I can jog on treidmill and go on walks with no pain in my foot. I had it in both ankles. Yes I feel for ya because I…

Didn't we do this befor?? I don't see much challenge in this, but sore elbows. I will do this the best I can without my elbows hurting so much.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I really haven't checked the bmi thing, I am still under the obese section. I also have slowed down on the working out, do to disapointments. I finally faced up to it and reallize that I can't let people or anything distract me in anyway. I have to work out. I wish that I can…

I don't know, I just always wanted to get down to this number and I am stuck at where I'm at. I so badly want to just see if I can do this. I never thought that I would be running on a treadmill and I am now. I never thought that I would ever have time to go back to school and I am 1/2 way done. So getting this weight…

Sounds great being I do have alot of steps in my home. basement and attic. I also climb steps at school, I don't take the elevator it's only one flight. maybe `15-20 step climbing. I will diffently count them this week.

Love it, I haven't had done this in a long time.So I will give it my best. That is all I can do. This will go well with our group challenge.

I have been over a yr out and I still have problems with starchy items, bread, pasta, and anything doey. So this is not just right after sugery, it is for now one. Inless you decide to extend it and make it to the point you can eat these things, that could possible stretch your pouch. So me myself I just stay away, and…

I had watched a part of it, I to have watched I think 13 seasons. I just love watching the biggest loser. Its really all I do watch or Dr. Michael. I love her acting, She is an insperation to me, as she doesn't give up and the first female Dr. In Colorado. I love to see the challenges on the biggest loser also on Dr. Mike.…

O how I remember not being able to drink water, It hit me so hard I actually fell to my knees one time. so I also started the crystal light mixes, also I found that sobe zero cal. settled in my pouch with no problems Propel grape flavor was also veryy refreshing. I sure hope that things are going alot better, Even after…

There was some questions can you please let us know??? How do you log the blurpees and I have never done them befor, but so much up to the challenge even if its for the 1 lb advantage. I know I'm in for it. With my teams chellenge plus the biggest loser challenges I know I should see results. Good luck every one and hope…

I do know how you feel. I also have been training to walk/jog a 5K. I learned the training from another site I use to go to. It is basically the way your doing it, in intervals. Today I jogged at 4.8 for 2 Min. and walked at 3.8 for 3 min. Did this for 20 Min. I loved it. This was my first time going 4.8 at a jog. so I…

I am so ready, when my back was out I stayed down, just so I could be ready for this. Today was the first day back to the gym, I loved it. I feel that this has really busted my enthusiasm on working out. I sure hope it does with everyone else. I so badly want to get down to my dream weight.

I will be doing the biggest loser challenge but would also like to do this as this goes tell april. You can count me in as I will do all the challenges. Every little bet helps me.

I myself servived, second year of not really gorging into all the sweets. Nothing like haven sweet potatoes, salad and a nice juice white meat turkey. that to me sounds so much better than deep dark chocolate cake that is so dry it gets stuck in your throat. I think you all know what I'm talking about. At least the food I…

You couldn't have done it any better. I was just thinking the same thing, How to get the word out to everyone to have a wanderful day on christmas, and to remember it's not just about receiving and giving, but it's our saviors b-day. How much that man has done for us, when we don't even deserve it. Well everyone have a…

thanks for the blog. I did go to it and asked her to be my friend as that post was very encouraging to me.

Hi, everyone, My name is christina, and I had WLS done in 5/24/10. It seems like its been longer. I have been very successful, but feel like I'm stuck. I have always wanted to weigh 150lb. My largest was 350+. I am currently 178. I do have alot of problems, when it comes to mnthly for all you females. I think I'm at that…

I would have to agree, Protein powder is wanderful, you can have it as a drink or shake, smoothie or even put it in with pudding, fruit mix or oatmeal. I have not tried the oatmeal, I bet I will tom. Its been really cold here and nothing like a warm breakfast to start the day with a little protein. Thanks for the idea.

I buy the NNW brand. It is like 106 Cal. and only 1 gram of sugar. something like 21 grams of protien. But I think that I will be switching it, do to I don't go much to the store that sells it. I'm shopping around. I had stomach bypass and can't have much sugar. I have to have an high proien powder or shake. Another one I…

I have never tried the Chia, but I do us the protien powder and make shakes. That always seems to curb my appetite. You can get the protien in any flavor.

Hello, I am also in Omaha. I just started jogging on the treadmill. I'm doing a little at a time. I do feel alot better, more energy, and a clearer mind. I have never jogged or run a 3K, but I did walk a 3K in CA. with the Susan B. Breast cancer. I have heard some things lately about them so I stopped. I really would like…
