Ok, I'm feeling better but not yet 100%. However, I did pull weeds, trim hedges/bushes, rake and sweep the walkway this morning, which took about 1 hour.

If I'm feeling better later, I may ride my recumbant bike or do the Abs of Steel and Buns of Steel videos.

Thanks, Donna. :rolleyes: I'm happy to hear that you at least tried the weight training class. Remember, the more you go, the easier it will get. And, think of the benefits after the Aspircream (sp?) rub down.

Tricia... thanks for the pep talk! I have belonged to this club for over a year and this is the first time I ventured out of the pool! LOL I was very self conscious..... but I did it.

It was really hard, but I made it a point of talking to the instructer afterwards and told her I was new. I did somethings well, and tried to do everything a little bit. I REALLY had problems with the lunges. I still have problems with my knee do to the weight. She recommended a wrap. She said if the wrap doesn't help during lunges, not to do them.

How often do you think I should take the class? It is some stretching, cardio warm up, not a lot, weights, abs.... It is one hour long.

Once again. Thanks. I really want to this, but don't want to over do it.

good news guys! i think the cleanse did make my thighs smaller! i'm now wearing the smallest pants i own. size 31 joe's jeans!!! ok, there's a bit of a muffin top. but hell who can really wear a 6" rise. but it is being hidden by my baby doll tank top so i don't look like i'm going to the jerry springer audition. i haven't been on a scale for 3 weeks, but i definitely feel like i've lost at least 5 lbs. i don't know why i'm so afraid of the scale but i never want to weigh. i go to the doc's next tuesday so i'll prob wait till then.

also, i'm back to the real exercise bunny workout again. today:

- 45 mins 4.1 mph, 5% grade

- arm exercises to 120 curls, strong man, raises, butterflies w/ 7 lbs

- plus new 60 tricept, chest press w/ 10 lb wts.

i'm determined to get into this backless dress by july with no back fat!!

Donna - you're very welcome. :hug: If your body is still sore today, maybe you should give yourself a day off. I would suggest starting out at 3 times a week and then build up from there. Your trainer is right, if the lunges are hurting your knee, you shouldn't do them. There are other ways to build up muscle and strength in your legs. I have a bad knee too so I try to stay away from them or just do a few.

niche - good news on the weight loss and fitting into a size 31 jeans. :clap2:

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
