Afternoon Warriors!

Walked on Wednesday - morning and lunchtime. Beat my previous time for my lunchtime 1.5 miles walk, so it's time to extend my distance. I am trying to keep the time constant at 30 minutes, so if I get faster, I walk farther.

No rowing last night - tried to eat some chicken and spent over an hour sliming and pb'ing. Teach me to chew better! :)

Today I walked DDog this morning and walked at lunchtime. Will try to get in rowing tonight, but I'm back in class now and my time is going to get even tighter. No matter - it's only 30 minutes and I can find that.

Going dancing for a short while tonight with DH - theres a club that plays 60's and 70's music on Thursdays, so we're gonna stretch and go to that tonight. Actually, its only a stretch for me - he's on the afternoon shift and can sleep later in the morning if he wants!

I missed my Pilates class so I decided to take a rest day. I think it will be good for my back.

Last night was upper body supersets. 8 exercises/12 supersets/10 reps each/13 pushups btwn each superset.

No cardio last night as we got 7" of snow btwn noon and 7 pm yesterday. Took me too long to get to the gym and then had to go home and snowblow the drive.

This morning I went for distance on the treadmill instead of time. Just did a nice jog of 40 minutes and 4.0 miles. Followed that with 10 minute cooldown.

Tonight, hopefully, will be leg supersets. If not tonight, tomorrow during the day.

I did stationary bike today because we're going to run tomorrow instead of bike at my New to the Sport session.

I need to figure out how to get some strength training and another swim into my week to make my fitness goals.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
