Monday Workouts!
Holy Moly! I fell off the wagon a little over a year ago after running a half marathon! I ain't done **** since then.... till tonight! I walked both dogs a mile each and I did 15 minutes of Tai Chi. I know that's a lot less then where I was over a year ago, but I DID DO SOMETHING! I got my butt off the sofa and did it! GO ME!!
HIGHEST 273.5 / PREOP 263.5 / CURRENT 198 / GOAL 161.5
I worked out for the first time today since my surgery. 
A little over three weeks out.
I walked a mile on the treadmill, then did a set of just arm weights (5 machines, three sets of ten reps on 25 pounds, that is all the doc will clear me for so far.)
Then I had karate class tonight and I warmed up the kids and did fifteen minutes of stretching myself then I taught and demonstrated kicks for half an hour.
Finally feel like myself. In pain right now - the same area on the left hand side where the drain came out - but I am sure it will go away after a good nights sleep.

50 TKD, light fitness, stretching, grappling and my first night sparring (crap sparring gear is like a sweat box).

I am serious that headgear is like an oven, even worse with the face gaurd on because then it holds in the hot air when you exhale.
