Default Huge Wow At The Gym!!!

So I went to the gym to work out tonite...and I was so pleased with myself....did my weight routine and went 15 minutes on the eliptical.....my personal trainer was there....and I told him how much weight I had lost...he had me walk into the free weight area and locate a 90 pound dumb bell....

I COULDN"T HARDLY PICK THE DADGUM THING UP!!!! I can't BELIEVE I was carrying that much extra weight on my frame just 22 weeks ago!!!

WHAT A WOW!!!!!!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Congrats on the wow Kath. I know it is hard to imagine that we carry so much extra weight until we loose it.

That's a wonderful WOW. Yes, trying to pick something up that equals the weight you lost is a good way to see how well you are doing!!

Great wow on just going to the gym. Your coach was brilliant to have you do that. I know when I used to go to weight watchers and there would be a complaint that someone had "only lost a pound" the instructor would say.... Imagine that is a pound of butter that was stuck to your thighs and just fell off. It was a great visual.
