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...

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
