Week 13

Down 48 pounds.  Woot!!

In 2 days, it will be my 3 month anniversary for my surgery.  I'm still soooo happy I did it.  I'm happy with my results and, if I needed to, I'd do it all over again in a heart beat.

Yesterday, before I got in the shower, I took my clothes off and forced myself to look in the mirror.  I'm glad I did.  I could see even bigger changes in some areas and how they're... get this... SHRINKING!!!  I think I'm going to make a monthly habit of taking an honest look at my naked self.

Next week, I have my 3 month follow up appointment with Dr. Dan.  I still have to go get my blood work done.  Nothing like cutting it down to the last minute.

I took last week off from the exercise thing.  I had to acknowledge that I genuinely strained my quadricep, and I had to allow time for it to heal.  It feels better now, so it's time to get back in the game.  We got an elliptical at home, so I spent some time on that.  WOW.  This elliptical is harder to pedal than the ones at the gym, so it's going to take time for me to build endurance on it.  I'm ashamed to say I only got 8 minutes on it.  Oh well... that's better than I did last week.  I also got my balance ball and dvds for it in the mail on Saturday.  I should be good with the variety in workouts.  For now.
