I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and everyone *****ads this
This week is way up in the air. Work is crazy for me and long hours and the sidewalks are so icy that I can not run outside right now.
My goal this week is to do a swim, strength training and a run. I have to find time to fit it in
I use Under Armour for everything.
But it sounds like the issue might be your clothing is a bit too compressive? Try a larger size perhaps?

Old Navy has a decent line of compression clothes at good costs a while back. I haven't checked in a while, but I'd recommend them if they still have them
honestly it is all good. cardio, strength, yoga, sport -- anything.
Over the past few years I have morphed with my exercise a few times. For a while I was all about running. For a while I was all about yoga. For a while I was all about crossfit. I tend to overlap, but as something new catches my interest I do it. If something starts to get boring, I look for something else interesting.
The key is do something you like because then you will do it!
In terms of what you can do post surgery, I was cleared for cardio well before I was cleared for weights. So if you are cleared to lift, I'd say cardio is probably fine, but it doesn't hurt to check with your doctor.
This week is going to be tough. I'm going to be in Tijuana at the hospital with my hubby.

I honestly don't know. I've had lower back pain for the last few days and when I went to run on Saturday it became painfully (lolz) clear that I've got a kidney stone. Every foot strike sent agonizing pain through the right side of my back.
Here's the plan for the week, but it's a matter of playing things by ear and seeing what my body will tolerate and when I pass this stone.
Monday - rest
Tuesday - running, yoga stretching (I had a long run planned for Saturday, so my running plans for this week are "as far as I can go" to make up for missing my long run.)
Wednesday - pilates class, yoga class
Thursday - same as Tuesday
Friday - walking w/ family
Saturday - walking w/ family
Sunday - walking w/ family
I'm going to an AirBNB in the poconos with family for the holidays. I have no idea if I'll be able to run while there or what. I'm taking my gear, though!
