Back from Surgery

I am back and it feels good to see my blog again. Yesterday, I tried to access my blog and all blogs on blogger were blocked, including some very interesting blogs I follow like Mama Laughlin. I totally freaked out, but today things are fine. Phew!!!

The surgery went well and the recovery is ongoing. I think it will be another month or so until I feel 100%. Being back to work is very tiring, and still have trouble bending down. As for exercise, I have been walking a lot. But now that it is very humid, I don't think I will be walking outside anymore. I think this is part of the reason I was feeling really sick last night. So I think I should stick to late evening walks when there's a bit of breeze.

It is difficult to convince the husband to go for walks with me...he is becoming lazier and lazier by the day. I sometimes feel like he has turned into me when I was overweight and inactive. I kind of know how he feels though, he used to be so full of energy and I would be like "whatever, I'm too tired". Now that I am trying to be more active, our roles have reversed and I don't like it. But he's not like that all the time. Sometimes he pushes me too far. It's like when we went hiking and I really couldn't do more than 1 hour, but he wanted to do more. I just couldn't do it and he needs to know that I know my body's limits!!

Anyways, more importantly here is the weigh in for this week. I haven't done measurements recently but I am currently stuffed into size 12 pants. My legs look like sausages but I hope it will stop me from eating at the food court.

Weight: 165.6 pounds

You may be interested to know that I have been stuck at this weight for the last week. I guess I have plateaued. I need to figure out a way to get out of it, and I started by having a big lunch and I don't think I'll do any walking today. Hopefully this will shake up my usual routine and I will try starting the shred tomorrow morning. Good luck in the coming week!

  1. You can do it! Try eating smaller meals and snacking. Sometimes that does the trick to kick your metab!
