Hey all! Feeling a little better today..Got my gym fix last night..I enjoyed zumba for 60 minutes and it was great! I did the elliptical for about twenty minutes...but I wanted to do strength training too! So I did legs and abs, and the back area I love so much!!! It was nice to get to go...I am now just aiming for hitting the gym three days a week, plus atleast one day on the weekend...It's too hard to put myself on such a high goal to get there everyday, right now with school..I don't want to be dissappointed at myself either...SO my goal is too hit the gym atleast three times a week, and if I hit it more that would be great, but I am going to do my zumba DVD at home more, and my exercise on demand choices...That way I am still getting exercise...

Wow, this has been kind of dead the past couple of days. Kind of like me. I went home after work on Tues w/o getting in my lower body workout due to getting quite sick on Tues afternoon. First strength training workout I've missed since surgery:frown: Got home and basically slept for about 12 hrs Tues night, got up Wed morning and moved to the couch. Slept most of Wed and another 12 on Wed night. Still got my meals and liquids in, just slept in btwn.

So, yesterday morning, I woke up and felt somewhat better and went to the gym. Got in both 100 minutes of cardio and upper body workout before my 6 month appt.

Even though I lost another 7 lbs last month, we decided it was time for my first fill. SUCKED!!!! PA had difficulty getting the needle in the port and then apparently had the bevel facing the wrong way. Took her about 5 minutes just to get the syringe to work properly. As I've stated before, I HATE NEEDLES! and got quite cranked up during this time. When she sat me up to sip some Water, I got quite dizzy and lightheaded with all the adrenaline.

Oh well, I survived and am on liquids and whole liquids yesterday and today. Can go back to normal and find out what foods I can still tolerate tomorrow. Got 2 cc's added yesterday on top of the 4 they put in during the surgery. So, I'm up to 6 cc's in there.

Got up this morning with a HUGE sinus headache. Took a couple of liquigels and hit the gym before work. 50 minutes on elliptical.

Hope you all are doing better than me today.

Jess30 · February 29, 2008

Sorry, to hear about your fill, and the sinus headache, definitely not a way to start the weekend, that is for sure. Well I have been busy studying my butt off, to still get a crappy grade. I missed questions I know I should have known the answer to.. I will see my test Tuesday and meeting with Professor, after class for help. So today, I started my day off with a walk...I walked my neighborhood since the snow is melting a little bit..Thought some fresh air would do me good. I do feel better...but now it's time to write a paper and study some more....How do people do this college thing I will never know!!

Looking forward to the gym tomorrow, plan to spend some quality time with my machines, and my favorite zumba lady!! I have however, done my work out tapes at home 2 times and did exercise on demand once but I did three different ones...They only last like 20 min though...I am so glad it's Friday!! I hope you all have a Great Friday!! Ceraded, hope you feel better.

But I am going to my zumba lady tomorrow!!!! I am so excited!! That will be so cool if we get to catch up and meet!!!!

whosyadaddy · February 29, 2008

Wow Jess Lots of book work!

I never want to go back to school.

I spent too much time on University in London from 16 -21 it was a killer.

We worked on the job 4 days a week and Uni 1 day a week. The Uni day was 7am - 9pm...an absoluate killer.

Jess30 · February 29, 2008

Wow, I wish I could be out on the job four days and at school only one!! I am a hands on learner, more than books. I only have three more weeks until clinicals, I will be in the hospital two days a week. So I am really excited about that, but I will still be in school two days a week as well..But I will have Mondays off!! I am sure I will be studying though...Is it summer yet!!

Wow Whosya, you ready for your Florida trip!!

whosyadaddy · March 1, 2008

Ok, real quick as I still feel like crap.

Cardio today-65 minutes on elliptical for 5 miles and 1030 calories.

Now, back to my sinus headache.:eek:

Ceradad · March 2, 2008

Finally! I'm starting to feel alive again. Got up early and in the gym once again.

Elliptical-65 minutes, 5.17 miles and 1076 calories.

Bad news is, DW called me at work first thing to report DD is now sick.:laugh: I told her not to be with me while I was at home when avoidable, but she wanted to spend time with me. Said she didn't care if she got sick.:drool:
