walking > running for long term longevity.
On topic: I went up from like 155 to 175 within 2 months of a colectomy. On a 6'3" indo-european like me still quite slender. I'm getting my insides cut up again so that I can lose the ostomy bag at the end of the year and my surgeon told me to "skinny out" [sic]. Apparently having next to no fat in the abdominal cavity is ideal for making these surgeries easier.
So I am now practicing intermittent fasting every day to help consume fats while retaining the muscle I gained since getting healthy. I was getting into some jogging, but it ruins the seal of my ostomy bag so I'm going back to walking and a regimen of pushups, pullups, lunges, and some dumbell exercises for my vanity.
I also got a ostomy-bag protective belt over the weekend so I can go swimming again in the ocean, which is fucking awesome, but when I was body surfing it totally ripped the seal and I hda to go home immediately. So I really won't bea ble to get back into the water how I'd like until next year.
