Four Year Post-Op Meeting w/Dr. Marymor

Even though my actual surgery date is not till the end of August, I had my four year check-up today, over at Barix.  Dr. Marymor gave me some guidelines for my food, and I hope to follow up with him in 3-6 months.

So, I decided that I am in need of more specific goal setting.

1. Make my goals for my food intake, concerning carbs, protein, fats and sugar.
2. Get my butt moving five times a week, not just walking Utley.  I want to do 30 minutes of cardio, and begin some gentle strength training three times a week.
3. And for my overall recovery, I am going to do an AA 90 in 90.  That is 90 meetings in 90 days.  I will keep you all posted regularly on how I am doing with these goals.

Huggles,
Trish

Thank you.  It is amazing that Gene is now 4 1/2 years out and I'm 10 months out today!

People comment on my over 100 pound weight loss and attribute it to my WILLpower, but it is my WANTpower: I WANT to be thin and healthy more than anything else!

Thanks Shannon,
I do water walk, and all sorts of stuff in the pool.  I am a water baby.

GREAT list of goals, Trish.  Just make sure you take the exercise slow and steady and not to injure yourself any further!

Can't wait to follow your continuing journey with you!
