Today

5 mile run

I am so excited. My run today was almost exactly the same times as my last 5 mile run prior to surgery. I guess I am where I was prior to surgery as far as conditioning!1 Woohoo. That didn't take as long as I thought it would.

Yesterday:

I was going to skip the weights & just do cardio but I was there, felt decent so...

45 min. chest/triceps

30 min elliptical, wanted to continue with stairclimber but they were all occupied!

I HATE this time of year at the gym! There should be a rule that you cannot join a gym in January if you don't plan to come all year.

Careful where you say this ccl. I said something like that last year and got flamed. Not so much here, but on other threads.

I agree whole heartedly though.:thumbup:

Yeah, I now do my cardio at work in the fitness cntr. I then do my lifting an hour earlier due start time at work moving up an hour. Makes a BIG difference. By the time I leave about 5:15 or so, it is getting packed.

Ya'll I went to the gym last night - I couldn't even get on a machine...I don't think I've ever seen so many people...and it was raining...so I wasn't able to do anything there...even the racquetball courts were taken. I went this morning and it was much better - am workouts for me! Works out better anyway with my schedule and I feel absolutely fantastic throughout the day...

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
