I went to my WLS surgery meeting tonight and afterwards these two ladies stopped to compliment me on my toned arms. I told them that I just workout with videos I find on Youtube and I do a lot of pushups. This made my evening! Working out is so worth it!

Look up Popsugar. There are several videos to choose from, everything, yoga, cardio HITT, whatever you are interested in doing.

This is an awesome compliment because it acknowledges that you are doing the best you can (i.e. working out) doing the best you can do (i.e. withinyour means/youtube...

Keep working out and doing the best you can. It is going to HUGELY pay off in the end.

That's awesome! I've also been working out for a while and I got compliments on my arms and it just feels awesome lol 

I've been doing a lot of assisted pull ups , dips ,and bicept curls and skullcrushers and it is paying off

This is fantastic :)  

The other day my partner had surgery and wasn't able to carry anything when we left the hospital.  So I pack muled everything, which was not insignificant since I had all of my stuff too and we'd prepared for a potential overnight.  

And he said to me, "You know, this would have bothered me 3 years ago, you hauling all that crap.  But now?  It's totally no big deal for you so I don't mind at all."  

I thought that was a great thing :D
