hi Earl, Today was my first day back since my arm lift!!!  I was afraid I was going to be unable to sustain a workout if I took too long off, so I braved it and went. I did a light workout, just 20 minutes on the elliptical and some squat reps and inner and outer thigh machine. I couldn't do any upper arm things of course, not for a while at least.  They say it takes 3 months to undo 6 months worth of weight strengthening.  I figure I should be well within that window of opportunity, I'm planning on going back to my arm workouts when I am a month out from surgery. Have a great weekend! Donna

Great job Donna. Sounds about like what I do when I have an injury. I just train around it. Think of it as a good time to specialize on your legs and hips. That's probably what I would do. Plus do more cardio. Great to have you back. Earl
