May Exercise Challenge



Recommended Posts

No exercise over the weekend. Just too busy.

Did upper body circuit training yesterday followed by 35 minutes on elliptical. Then, home to mow the backyard. Played fetch with my GSD. Then, tried to get him to go out running with me. Don't know if it was because of the fetch or his age, but he was only able to make it about 1/3 of a mile before lagging too much. Didn't want to kill him, so we walked the rest.

This morning, I ran the loop bossman took me on last Thur. Bastard lied to me.:purplebananna: Said it was a just under 3 miles. Turns out it was 3.6 miles. He really did push me. Oh well, I survived last week and today was easier. Had my normal running partner and another Sgt. here at work with me this morning. Went at a nice pace. Have to do it again this week.

Legs tonight.

Ran on Sunday for a short time. It was too hot for more. Ran on Monday at the gym. Ran today at track.

Too much running! Tomorrow I'm taking off and then Thurs. is my bike day. Haven't decided what I'll do on Friday.

Legs last night. Ran 2 miles this morning on along the Mississippi this morning. Felt like I could keep going but the guy who just started running again was hurting as it was. So, softball tonight and then back at it tomorrow.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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.
