"MILE"stone!

So I am 2 weeks post op and today I did something that I have NEVER done before. I energetically walked 1 mile without getting completely winded or quitting for that matter! WOW! What an amazing feeling it was. I actually could have kept going, but I got to my destination. To think that 2 weeks ago I could not have done this. I'm so excited. Next stop, 2 Miles! YEA ME! Here's to all our "Mile"stones!

Congrats on your milestone. I am a bit enveous. I still haven't been able to MAKE myself get up and go for a walk. The first week or so after surgery I did cuz I was scared of getting a blood clot. Now I need to start an excersise program or something and can't get motivated. That is so awesome.....a mile. Good luck on the 2 miles. Corinn

:clap: CONGRATS on the MILE! That is awesome! :cool: I look forward to hearing about the 2 "Mile" stone! :rofl: Kandice

Julie- CONGRATS!! That's awesome. I felt so excited when I could actually do a mile! I was surprised I could make that! Before not even a half a lap I'd be out of breath. Keep up the great work. I haven't done the two miles yet. I'm up to one and a half though

Congratulations to you. I have not returned to the gym yet but will be returning on Monday. I plan to walk 2-3 miles on the treadmill at least 4 days per week. Believe it or not, I used to jog but that was years ago. That is what I desire to do so bad but could not because it HURT with all of this jumping and jiggling around. Keep us posted on your progress, you probably would have gotten to 2 or 3 miles had you not reached your destination. Angela
