I had my one month appointment today (technically 5 weeks) and got cleared for all exercise so I went and joined the local boxing club. I felt SO good afterward. Now tomorrow may be a different story lol I just hate to walk for exercise because I find it incredibly boring. So glad I can do something now where I actually feel like I'm doing something. I had to just walk in place during a little bit of it but for the most part, I did pretty well. Got a free set of boxing gloves too win win!

Hi Melissa

i had my one month (really 5 week) appt today too. i was cleared for a bunch of stuff too.i got an elliptical.. I hope to start using it , I have been walking as well. but i like it ,I go to the park and its so peaceful.. how are you doing otherwise ???? if you dont mind me asking,,, how much protein and water are you getting in ... ??? and be careful who you knockout with those boxing gloves !!!! LOL

If you find walking boring, try listening to an audiobook or music.

mix it with speed walking and jogging if you can, its so much fun.

Good luck!!

I won't actually be hitting anyone Just the heavy bag. Relieves frustration and stress and different emotions. I am doing great. I have needed to up my water but I finally reached 64 oz yesterday. Hoping to keep that going. I'm getting in at least 60 protein which I will be upping as well. I've had to add calories because I was only getting in about 600 and the doctor wants me at 1000 especially doing the boxing so I'm trying to get better about that. Tonight I'm going to start a strength training routine mixed with intervals on the treadmill. Walking bores me but if I can get to where I'm able to jog, I enjoy it more. How are you doing? Everything going ok?

wow .you sound like you got it all under control... i am jealous...but hopefully will get 1/2 way near there soon. I aim for 6 glasses of water a day but sometimes only get 4-5. I also strive for 45 g of protein but do get more . i still do powder protien for 20grams. just to make sure I get the protein in. other than that doing ok I guess.. Keep up the great work!!!!!!!!!
