Gave myself a little b-day present and slept in this morning. At the time, seemed like a great idea. Now, I'm kicking myself.:eek:

In tonight for my upper body workout. Can't fit in any cardio as I have a financial class to get to tonight with DW. Off tomorrow so I may try to fit some extra cardio work in after my leg workout tomorrow morning. This weekend we're going to Des Moines to have early turkey day with my family. I'll have to borrow my sisters card to the 24/7 gym she belongs to. Her brother in law owns it, so it's cool.:thumbup:

Hi all you Dedicated Exercising Warriors,

I missed y'all so I had to come in and post...:cool2:

It's been a while since I posted - things got crazy at work and I couldn't make it to the gym for a while, but continued my daily walks. DDog doesn't care WHAT my schedule is, and that's a good thing...

Actually didn't walk on surgery day, but did get up at 4 am after and walk around the floor at the hospital - couple more banded insomniacs up to walk with - was kinda nice.

Been home almost a week - walked every morning, though DD handles the dog - he pulls on the leash a bit, and that was just too uncomfortable on my incisions.

Missed y'all - gonna continue to walk and wait for the okay to get back into the gym. Post-op appt with doctor on Dec 2nd, but back to work on Dec 1st.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!:smile2:

Thursday night-KILLED my upper body workout. As mentioned previously, it was my b-day and I turned 38. Had my best workout in probably 2 mos. I walked out of the gym feeling like king sh*t!:thumbup:

Followed that up with a great leg workout on Friday morning and cardio of 65 minutes.

No workouts over weekend. Down in Des Moines for early turkey day with my family. This morning was 45 minutes on elliptical. Tonight will be upper body and another 15-20 minutes of cardio.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
