This is a great idea for a thread and a very timely find for me personally!
I had reconstructive surgery to repair 2 torn ligaments in my ankle back in the first week of December.
I was on crutches until late Feb. and as of last week am sans ankle support braces of any kind.
I gained 20 pounds in the time I was on crutches and for the first time in my life crossed the 200 lbs mark.
I'm 5'11" and I went from 183 lbs to 203 lbs during my recovery. I've dropped down to 195-198 but need to do more.
This summer I plan on getting down to the 175-180 range that I should be and am most comfortable at.
I've never had to do the whole "concentrated weight-loss diet/exercise plan" thing so this is all new to me.
Every friend that I've ever known go through it has stated that success comes through support and/or self determination.
Who would've thought I could find that here at CAG of all places? Great idea OP!
As I said, I'm new to this so any tips on getting going would be appreciated.
After reading through the previous pages I applaud everyone's efforts so far. I'll keep you posted.
