Update:

Monday p.m.-killed another upper body workout. Again, felt stronger as the workout went on. So glad I started back on the Protein supplement.:grouphug:

Tuesday a.m.-Off from work so I hit both legs and cardio back to back. Another great workout. You know you are doing very good when one of the regulars, and former steroid user, tells you you are throwing around some real weight on the leg press:biggrin:

Wed a.m.-Ran 1.69 miles in 15 minutes on treadmill followed by 55 minutes on elliptical.

Working 0000-0800 and 1600-2400 on today so workout is out of the question. We'll see how Friday feels.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!!!!!

Okay, it is the day after Thanksgiving and I am 18 days post op. I have been staring at my treadmill telling myself to get to it.

So, here I go. I am walking away from my computer and heading towards the treadmill. :blush:

Back from the treadmill: 40 minute walk, 1.30 miles at a 2% grade. Plus 10 minute upper body weights. This is my first workout since the surgery, so I am on my way. Let's hope I can get back to my pre-op two-mile walk a day.

Great job TQUAD!:) The first step is the hardest. Keep it up and you will see the results.

As for me, 45 minutes of upper body workout last night. Today will be leg workout and maybe some cardio if I have the time.

      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!!
