Today it will be 6 weeks since I had my surgery. I've been camping for the past 4 days so I've been away from the scale and was really hoping there would be some big weight loss while I was camping since we walked everywhere! But I jumped on the scale this morning and I had only lost 1.8 pounds in the past 4 days. :( Oh well. I did lose 1/4 inch of my thigh and 1/4 inch off my waist. My boobs are just shrinking like crazy! (I guess you gotta take the good with the bad.) So my total weight loss for 6 weeks is exactly 30 pounds. That's 5 pounds a week. Not too shabby!
Since I'm 6 weeks post op and everything is going well I can start working out to include lifting weights. I'm going to a Physical Therapist that is going to help me strengthen my core muscles. I also want to learn to run. I know that sounds weird but I know my form is all wrong when I run and I could do better.
Thanks again to all my friends that have been for walks and bike rides with me. I couldn't have gotten this far without you!
30 lbs is awesome! You look super...
