IDGOMB 4/24/08

I worked all day-steps 6800+  then went to the gym after work walked a mile in 14 mins, 30 minutes on weight, then home to keep my 11month old grandson tonight. Hope everyone else has had a great day, Sherry

Hey Sherry,   You are doing so great....  How do you feel? 

  Thank you for keeping the IDGOMB post going.....

Thanks for asking, Trina.  I feel great.  It has been a month on Saturday since surgery.  Six days after surgery, I had the flu that kept me down for 3-4 more days than I wanted.  But back to work by day 12.  So far I have tolerated most of my food without having problems swallowing....just remember not to eat fast......and chew, chew, chew.  Back in the gym and doing well.  I had my appointment with Dr. Morton last Tuesday (4/15) and he did the first fill of the band.  That's when I felt the restriction.    I have had several small (but exciting WOW moment), pants falling off (at home), fitting into a size 16 blouse......and it's just the first month post-op.  I have now dropped below 230 for the first time since my children were in 1st and 3rd grade.  My husband thinks someone new has moved into to our home......(I love that the most, I think) Are you coming to the dinner club tomorrow night?  We are going to try our best to get there......he gets home at 5:25 and we live about 30 minutes from the Rivergate area.....but will try. Thanks again, Hope to see you (missed you last week at the Yard Sale). Sherry

Yesterday I walked to the school then hit the gym, thats 1.5 miles. I did 1 hour worth of arms and back weights. 60 sidebends, lots of abs. Then I walked the 1.5 miles back.
