I was sleeved 8/8/11 so it's been almost 6 weeks. The scale hasn't been my friend too often but let me tell you what happened today. Well of course after surgery I began walking in the hospital. They said it would help me heal and relieve my gas. It did. I continued walking at home on our treadmill because I want to be healthy and active.

So here's the great part.... My hubby and I went to a state park today and walked a 3 MILE trail with our dog. And this trail was rated "moderate", not "easy". well... I kicked *ss on this trail!! I was so awesome my hubby couldn't even keep up with me! Even the dog was tired when we were done (11 month old Pitt). Two months ago I would have NEVER been able to do that.

I'm so proud of myself and I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!

Who has a great NSV for this week?

That is amazing! What a victory! I wish I had that kind of engery!

Way to go! I'd like to hit one of our state parks for a good hike before the weather turns too cold also.

That is awesome!!!!

My NSV for today is that I took the baby to the Fall Festival. It was in a big field and I walked around for 45 minutes going to all the booths and seeing the games. When we got home she wanted to go for a walk. I was talking on the phone and didn't realize that we did 3 laps around the neighborhood! She was in her little car and I was walking.

Just a month ago, I couldn't make it around the neighborhood once without my back and knees screaming at me.

YAY for NSVs!!! It makes the stall a bit more bearable.
