Topic: Problem with Incision
Has anyone had trouble with any of their incisions healing?  I had my surgery on April 2, 2010, and to date I have one incision that I am still packing with guaze.  My surgeon says it will heal but that it has to heal from the inside out.  When I went in for my first week visit, I told my surgeon that my left side hurt and he took out the stitches on my left incision and it drained and drained.  Since that time, my incision has been left open.

It will be 5 weeks for me on Wednesday.  Time really has gone by fast.

I have been walking.  I started out with 1/2 a mile and then went to 2 miles a day.  Have just been cleared by Dr. for more strenuous exercise so started a little jogging on Saturday.  Hoping to get into a routine and adding light weights.

 I have been walking on my Tred Mill when I go down to the basement to do laundry...neddless to say that I only do laundry once a week! So i'm not excercising nearly as much as I should because I have been lazy! I need a good kick start...on my ASS!

I haven't really done any exercise, per say. But I did buy a pedometer and have been tracking my steps. I average about 6,000  a day. I want to shoot for 10,000. Hopefully after my stupid back starts to agree with me, I'll get up on my treadmill and start walking. My husband wants to shed a few pounds (He doesn't need to! He's 6'4 and 198 lbs!) so he's been pushing me to walk with him. But honestly, I'm so exhausted after I get home from work it's all I can do to cook dinner!

Sadly no. I haven't. I was told I could walk all I wanted and then elliptical and weights at 6 weeks. a couple weekends ago I swam with my kids and every muscle ached so I decided not to work out until the 6 weeks. Today is SIX WEEKS. So I do need to get in the gym. I'm going to pack my bag tonight for tomorrow (Can't today bc of girls' gymnastics).

Topic: RE: Favorite Food
I love going to restaurants. I don't know if its because I like being served or what. I'm living off shrimp and turkey right now. Grilled shrimp at home and restaurants, turkey at bbq joints. etc. We had my fav, japanese hibachi the other night and I ate half my soup and a couple shrimp but my God, I could drink that shrimp sauce they make! Yummo.
