Technology, not always a good thing

Today is the first time I have been able to get back on line. We've had no internet for a week. The cable guy actually came out on Sunday and replaced all kinds of wires and things to get us up and running. Finally, we are able to check emails again. I had well over 200, mostly garbage

 

Because the system was down, I haven't been able to post my new green shirt picture. But I did have it taken and now the hubs has to upload it for me. I am hoping he can get to it soon.

 

My 2nd fill was scheduled for this week, but I postponed it until after Thanksgiving. I still don't need it yet. As of today, I am down to 207lbs, which is 62 lbs since I started my journey (47lbs since my surgery).

 

I have conquered my nemesis, the dreaded elliptical machine. I am up to 35 minutes and I really love it. I can't wait until I can get up to 1 hour on it. When I first started using it, I was only able to go about 2-3 minutes. Then I went to 5 and every time I tried it, I stayed on a minute longer than the last time. I don't get winded on it - the problem is my feet. They start to go numb. I spoke to one of the trainers who said it was not uncommon. I am hoping I will be able to get past it.

 

I will try to get my pics uploaded and check back in within the next day or two.

 

Have a great night everyone.

A week with no internet??? **gasp** :) I would go nuts!

I had the same issue with my feet numbing and I found out my issue related to my shoes. I went and got fitted and found out my sneakers were too narrow. I went up a half size and went from a B to a D. That might not be your issue at all, but I know it did wonders for me!
