So on Sunday I woke up and couldn't move from using both the elliptical and stairstepper back to back...and Monday I took the day off. I may be back in the gym tonight. I'll keep you guys updated. I gotta get this ticker moving! We're almost half way through the month and I'm not even close to half way there!!! I better make it or I'll be really disappointed!

YES!!!!!!!!!! So yesterday I got back to the gym, 60 minutes on elliptical and this morning 35 minutes on stationary bike and 30 minutes on elliptical!!! I feel so much better. I don't even know why I didn't go for 4 days in a row. I finally feel like my ticker is moving.

Theres a beginner spinning class at my gym and I'm thinking of taking it on Sunday, so if I get to go I'll let you all know how it was!

Hey all I had my surgery Aug.8, 2007. 9 days ago. I've just been walking up & down the sidewalk to get my strength back 7 today I finally went stir crazy & went to Wal-mart. Did alot of walking in there & wore myself out. I need to get an exercise program going but all I can do right now is walk. To tell ya the truth that's about all I could do before surgery without falling dead on the pavement & so I haven't exercised in years. So wish me luck I need lots of encouragement to get off my rump to help get this weight off. So do most of you ride bikes? My rump wouldn't fit on a bike.

      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!!
