My back and leg got the best of me. Last night around midnight I went for a mile walk with my pregnant daughter. The weather was beautiful and she's so uncomfortable. She's dilated 2cm and 50% effaced, so she's ready!!! and so am I ! ;)

Anyway, when it woke up this morning I couldn't get out of bed. Grrrr! I'm limping around now. Just gotta slow things down a bit for the rest of the week.

I may be down, but I'm definitely NOT out!

I hope everyone is enjoying their day!

Trainer emailed to apologize he missed counted the sets we did he says we did 5 not the 6 we were supposed to in class. My thought is every day I push myself and I think I did 6 but if I'm not perfect one day I'll be back tomorrow again. I laugh when people get upset over silly things. This gym is part of my lifestyle and if I miss a set it's ok because I'll be back tomorrow or next day. I'm not in competition with anyone but the old me . I lagged because the people who probably complained are the ones who go to class here or there and not vested like the rest if us. Yes we all must start somewhere I'm not judging just thinking out loud

Happy Monday all! Summer has arrived here in New Hampshire. I've been gardening like crazy -- taking a day off as I can barely move. But I got up to the lake and did my one-hour walk. Have been accomplishing that every day, no matter what. Am still hovering at the gates of Onederland but it will happen when it happens, then 199, 198, 197 etc. A pound at a time. Meanwhile I am picturing the conversion of fat to muscle. It feels so good to be toning.

"barely run at 8mph"... not sure how far or long you're doing 8mph....but that is FAST in my book!! Thats about a 23:20 5k....WAY faster than I run. And faster than 90% of people who enter the runs in my area. My PR for a 5k is 26:28 (7.1mph)......so Kuddo's to you.

Congrats! :)

I have painted, sawed down trees and cleaned up the mess, mowed 2.5 acres, washed cars, and chasing and killing tent catapillars we are having our 10 year infestation this year., so today I am fatigued can I expect energy everyday and what do you do when your painful areas of your body is saying rest? and what do you turn to when you are not energized?

      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!

      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!!
