Well I missed Zumba tonight. Not to complain but my butt and hips are really bothering me. I'm going tomorrow night to 20/20/20 class though. I did workout this morning though - so at least I'm moving :-)

Dog walk: 20 mins.

Weights/abs: 30 mins. (which is why the dog got shortchanged :eek:)

lunch walk: 45 mins.

Still to come: p.m. dog walk (55 mins.)

Still trying to figure out where the showers/locker rooms are in my new office building so I can start bike commuting again. The car commute is really easy, but I'd much rather do the 10-mile round trip via bike.

Zumba is a latin dance/aerobics class. It's tons of fun. Lots of hip/booty shaking - lol. Lot's of core and leg work.

Today - 20/20/20 class

Well, after working until midnight Sunday and up again at 0530 on Monday, I was too tired last night to work out. :laugh: Made it in this morning, but workout was SH#T!

I've been feeling "weak" the past 3 or 4 wks. I think it is because I stopped drinking my Protein shakes for Snacks btwn meals. Don't think I am getting enough Protein for me to recover properly. I'll start it up again starting today. We'll see how it works out.

You don't like oatmeal? I don't think I've ever met a non-oatmeal person.

Zumba sounds like fun - I have asked my Y if it is possible for perhaps next semester.

Eh....I was trying to cut out the cost from the budget. Now, my body is paying the price. I'll have to work something out.

I can't really say that I love or hate oatmeal. I'll eat it, but don't have to have it.

As for eating before working out, that I just can't do. I feel sick and usually throw up if I eat right before I work out.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
