Back on my feet

May 09, 2009

It has been almost 2 weeks since my surgery on April 28th, 2009 and I am feeling GREAT!!  I've lost 31 lbs since the beginning of it all, and I know most of it was from water retention (spelling) but I don't care... I feel SOOOOO much better already.  I'm walking 25 minutes on my treadmill, I've almost made it a mile... that is my first goal, and I'm using my little 1 lb hand weights to work on my arms as I'm working my legs. 
  For the first time in 6 months I am able to WALK for more than 2 minutes straight without my lower back burning, my left leg going numb and start dragging the ground, and not running completely out of breath!  I will NEVER regret my decision to have this surgery.  I will be honest and say for some reason I've been craving a hamberger!  LOL  Not a fatty one, but like a Turkey burger or a lean burger....  I think I just want some MEAT to sink my teeth into!  LOL  I'm still on clear liquids, but Tuesday I go to FULL Liquids.. whoo hoo!! Yay me!  LOL
  Take care everyone...
