Sounds like you are on the right tract. Keep the hard work going.:drinker:

Your story is very inspirational. You have done a great job. Good Luck with your future...:drinker:

Allow yourself one day to relax and not count calories. Then you can look forward to that day and stay on track the rest of the time. Walk as much as possible and eat a protein with your carbs so you don't get hungry as fast.

Great job. You look amazing.:drinker::smile:

Don't dwell on what you have done wrong. Tomorrow is a new day and an opportunity to new start. Sign on everyday and long those calories. :flowerforyou:

Thanks for the support.:smile:

If you have to have surgery, please do rehab and don't over do it afterwards. I had surgery about a year ago and was told not to run again, but I started gaining weight and thought I could do more......should have listened.

Thanks for your support.:smile:

Can't swim, but upper body workouts are possible. Will find it hard to stay motivated if I can't do some aerobics...:sad:

Thanks. I believe this is a retear. I had a repair about a year ago. 2 months of rehab and 6 months of no exercises and thought I would be ok.....but apparently not. So painful daily. :sad:

I had surgery for the same injury about a year ago and that's when I began to gain weight AGAIN. Will try to really watch my food choices and do some upper body workouts. This is just a big downer.:sad:

Thanks for the ideas. I will try upper body workouts and keep watching the food choices. It's just disheartening to be injured when I feel like I just got off to a good start.

You have taken the first step.. Take one meal at a time. And remember that everything you put in your mouth is a choice. Don't starve yourself. That won't work. Just make wiser choices and smaller portions. Good luck on this journey.:smooched:

Thanks. I updated my profile to active instead of lightly active (I am a nurse) and the numbers make more sense now.

Great job. You look like a totally different person.

Take one day at a time. And you have started on the right step today.

This is my first week and I'm still finding my way around this site. Maybe we can help each other. Befriend me if you like.

Wow girl you done a terrific job. Keep up the great work.
