I was all pumped to go to the gym before work tomorrow morning for the first time since my surgery. I was getting my stuff ready tonight, found my gym bag, workout pants, socks. Found a left tennis shoe, no right one in sight. Okay, that's cool, so I then found my other pair of tennis shoes, but they are mysteriously missing their laces... Oh yeah, and I can't find a tshirt to wear that fits, and I don't own a sports bra that fits. Was willing to work around the sports bra situation until the new one I ordered arrived, but I don't think I can work around the other stuff :-/

Oh so ready for hump day to come and go tomorrow!

Sometimes you just have to laugh it off as something that wasn't meant for tomorrow...stop and get extra laces!

Don't you have another shoe with laces? I am sure dollar tree or dollar general has them.

No, I don't own any other shoes with laces. I work in an office environment and casual shoes aren't appropriate for work. Outside of work I mostly wear sandals because I live in Texas and it's just too hot for anything else.

Regardless, that wasn't the point of the post. I was just ranting that I had finally gotten the motivation to go, but all these little obstacles were standing in my way.

I will pick up some new laces on my way home from work.

Sometimes, the universe just conspires against you to test your resolve. This is the time to spit in the universe's face :)

(I've had those days...just want to get out and work out and everything and its brother tries to keep me from it.)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
