WOW!!! I wonder if I'll ever get to the point that it doesn't make me feel exhausted reading all that you, Earl, Val and other do in a day. I'm totaly amazed and impressed!!! Tami~

I had Lap. But I also had to cut back my activity level prior to surgery for about 6 weeks due to joint and hernia pain. I had not had any good conistency with my cardio and weight lifting total for about 2 1/2 - 3 months. So I am truly back to square one. I'm ok with that though. I will be patient. Tonight I went to go for a 10 min walk but it was pouring out. Instead I walked in the apartment back and forth and just spent some time standing while I watched Dana do some yoga. Did a few back stretches but nothing major. We are talking turtle slow walk too. 1/2 mile by day 5 is amazing!! Don't think that will be me though. My plan tomorrow is to walk to a certain spot in my neighborhood. Then gradually add on to that another block each day. We are talking feet.. not miles at this point! I'll see how that goes. If I feel really good the day after then I will add in a 2nd walk for the same duration. Yep.. will go very, very slow. Today has been pretty good though. Just feeling pretty tired right now since I only took a nap for a few minutes. I plan to get in bed early. Also starting to be able to spread my pain meds out further - taking now every 6 hours instead of 4.
