It's Wednesday you know what that means
So this week I was down to 173.8 almost a pound.. Not quite but close enough. I am discovering it is harder to lose the last 30 than it was to lose the first 50 (understandable but still try to accept it ) and the kicker is not being able to workout at the intensity that I'm used to since surgery. I was going to the gym 5-6 times a week running and lifting heavy, and now I am only able to walking for the time being.
But I have been really on point with eating this week. I have stayed at or just below my calories 1500 and have been watching my carb intake in the evenings. It's really proving that I can lose the weight (though slow) pretty much just through the way I eat.
Saturdays lunch salsa chicken burrito & fruit I'll post the recipe next week it's so easy! |
Now remember I told ya all about how a little part of my incision was open (you can read about my surgery here), well when I went back to the doctors on Monday a whole lotta of it was open ..
OMG I am busting at the seam literally!!
I almost took a pic but then I realized that would be taking TMI to a while new level and possibly illegal in a few states haha. The incision is right at my bikini line same place as my 2 c sections... (I think my skin is just saying enough is enough!) luckily no stitches but he did put on some steri strips and bandaged me up.
And as long as we're talking TMI (my "fuzz" finally was at a place where it wasn't poky anymore from surgery but then he had to go shave it again to put on the strips geez add insult to injury why don't ya and to top it off I think I may have scarred DQ for life as she was sitting right there while this 60 year old guy was shaving my who-ha!
Now that means I have to wait even longer to start doing any major exercise.. Ugh I am so over it. I'm not sure if I'm even suppose to be walking at this point but I went ahead and went for a quick 2 miler yesterday quick being relative it was a 16:32 pace but I just had to
I'm starting to go crazy.
Don't forget Fab Friday is coming up and it's
going to be a linky party...
So come join up and share your fabulous tip !!

Thanks Stephanie, I promised myself I would only walk until I get the all clear this time.
DeleteGreat loss! It sucks that you can't work out as much as you'd like, but I'm sure you'll be back at it before you know it...just be safe! That's what matters!
