Good Day!
WAHOOOOOO.......Today I am SUPER PROUD that I walked this morning!!!!!
Ok, it wasn't a long walk and I went slow but I did it and I feel good. I did not want to overdo it first time out after surgery so I made the decision to only go 15 mins. Tomorrow I'll do 20 and Saturday 30. It felt so good to get the heart rate up...just a little...was not going full throttle yet.....but it felt SO GOOD!
Only downside....I can already feel legs swelling a bit so after breakfast I'll be back to laying down and elevating the legs. Post-Op is not fun. I'm so happy that I did this and will work on building up the pace and distance.
How about you, what are you proud of today?

Hi Ruth. I want to thank you for posting this regularly. Why? Because I was feeling super lazy today and DH is out of town for work so I wasn't planning to walk - but then I thought about the fact that if I did nothing today I wouldn't have anything to post. So I put my clothes on, went out and ran some errands and did a 2 mile walk around my mall - yes it wasn't my brisk 4 miles but it was a heck of a lot more than what I originally planned to do. So thank you for helping me get off my butt into gear.
My proud is I walked in the mall today.

Atta Girl Skylar!!!!
Are you feeling better now??
FYI - On the "over 50" forum I post a daily "exercise" thread because I wanted the accountability....since starting it now I've got a bunch of the women reporting their daily workouts...pretty cool!
Glad you had a good walk.
