You must have really done a number on yourself! I am glad you’re getting some mobility back and you can start back at doing things you love.
I have been doing 45 minutes of 3 mph on the treadmill, elliptical (only 5 minutes, as that is all I can handle for now), and a 10 minute cool down on 2 mph. I finish with a 5 minute stretch. It has been going surprisingly well. I actually look forward to doing it. I’ve been watching the Olympics and Robin Meade so it makes the time go quite fast.
I usually over do stuff and start hurting. It isn’t happening this time so I am glad for that….it is probably the weight loss that has helped.
B- premier protein shake
S- iogo blueberry greek, all max protein powder – upped this to the full 2 scoops and it does not impact the taste of the yogurt so why not?
Lunch –tim horton’s chili ½ of a small serving, two soda crackers
S- laughing cow cheese celery
Dinner –left over schnitzel, salad, balsamic vinaigrette (from the complete guide to wls)

Good morning Barb, Glad your workout helped your back. I decided to try to scrap and shovel snow when I got home last night. It was down to the sidewalk but built up when we were away. It was kind of heavy and had to quite finally. My husband hopefully will finish the rest. We live on a corner so it is a lot for us. I think I may have stretched my lower back. Got in some good steps and rode my bike last night. I think it will be yoga to stretch things out tonight.
One headline in the Star today said Temperatures warming up. Yeah we are going from -7 and grey to -4 and grey. Such a heat wave. I wonder if we will notice?

I am struggling with getting enough food in me the past few days. I make a menu, have everything prepped but find when I need to eat I am not hungry and forcing myself is just ... arrrgh. So I am looking to switch up my menu to make sure I have more variety, I think the same things over and over are just making me bored.
On a good note, I am so much better with my vitamins and water as I now have alarms that go off until I take them. I am out with the dog exercising every night at the off leash parking walking up and down the hills. If anyone wants to join me at Jack Darling park for a walk let me know.
B- Rice Krispies, protein powder, milk
S - Cheese, Melba
L - soup, protein powder
S- jerky
D - undecided - I need to make something new
S- undecided
