today as my first day back to ballys after 5 weeks at home

Today was my first day back to Ballys after being at home for 5 weeks due to I had a total abdominal hysterectomy. Felt great to be back. I go to the one in Cudahy, Wisconsin!
I did 65 minutes on the elipitical burn 730 calories and did 5.2 miles then I hop on the treadmill and did 18 minutes and burn 100 calories. Then went to pick n save and got me some rotarsaire chicken. So now I made a salad with iceberg lettuce, cucumbers, shredded carrots and the rotarsaire chicken deskin of course and no dressing. And then cut up an applewith peanut butter and couple grapes on the side. Not sure how much of it I will eat but its a healthy dinner for me tonight. Getting my protein in that is for sure. Also pick up some protein crunch bars from bally's today in triple chocolate and cookies and cream. Now I am set on the bars I just ran out. Been doing my Eas protein shakes as well.
Thanks for inviting me to the group! It feels great to get back to exercise again. I just start some at home but was tired of the plateau ranging from 171 to 173. I need the scale to move again. Its been over 3 weeks at this range and had enough. I had my surgery on July 28, 2009 and hope to be at goal by then or before then. I want to become a fit and healthy person. And then maintain my weight and not gain it back. I use to weigh 317.5 lbs and never want to see that again. I know exercise is the key to success as well as what we put in our mouth.

I still have my ovaries they took out the uterus and cervix only it was called a total abdominal hysterectomy. They only took off the cysts that were on both ovaries and my ovaries are still intact so no hormones for me.

Wow sounds like a mess. He want me to do the endo ablation but I was worried that it wouldn't work for long and would have to do the hysterectomy so figure just be done with it. I am going to be 46 in August and rather not have any period anymore.

I made to Bally's again today. I did 65 minutes on the elipitical burn 731 calroies, 5.21 miles. Then I hop on the treadmill for 35 minutes burn 209 calories and did 1.70 miles. Then came home and work out on the ball did 3 sets of 20 of push ups and bridges. Then I did 3 sets of 25 of sit ups on the ball. So I think I got a better workout today. Wow and its only been day 2 since I start back. Had to keep waking up my feet they want to sleep! lol

Plus the scale moved this morning it said 170 :) Finally! I just needed more exercise. Hoping it will move more this week. Want to say good bye 170's I want to see 167.5 lbs this week so that would be 100 lbs since July 28, 2009 and 50 lbs pre surgery. Thats my goal and I sticking to it!
