Haven't been on in a long time...

Its been a couple months since I last logged on and thought I'd check in.

Well its been 9 months since my surgery and I made it though the holidays. I did indulge in the holiday fare but since I can't eat all that much it didn't have an awful effect. I am still hovering around 95 lbs lost and I feel so much better. I went on a cruise in October and enjoyed that and was able to do much more walking and physical activities than I have ever done before.

I finished my exercise room in my basement last week. I am currently equipping it with needed materials. Since I live in Upstate NY having indoor exercise area in winter is necessity and I hate the public gyms and so wont go there. I hope to focus on a 4-5 times a week exercise routine for the next 3 months with the ultimate goal of losing the last 35 pounds and go into the spring and summer with better fitness and outlook.

Attached is a progress pic from last 2 cruises first was April 2016, last was October 2017.

Hope all is well with everyone and wish you all a Happy and Healthy New Year!

Congratulations on your weight loss Jim and Happy New Year. Much sucess for those last 35 pounds :-)

Well done Jim!

Great job Jim! You can totally do it! We have converted our garage into a workout area. We bought the Marcy home gym for strength training and it is freaking amazing. We also have a treadmill, free weights, exercise balls, jump ropes...it is pretty awesome!

Oh, my Lord, Jim! Your transformation is wonderful. Honestly, I hardly recognize you from the before pic.

Your home gym is a great idea. I have friends who live "up North" who are miserable being so housebound right now due to the freezing weather y'all are enduring. Great job.

And congrats on all your success thus far.
