Before After

Trying to get back in routine.

Well I wasn't very good yesterday. I went to the YMCA to meet my friend who I haven't seen in 3 weeks and she was the one with the surgery I was telling you about. She can't workout or anything, but she email me the night before and told me she wants to go swimming with me at the Y. So I got my bathing suit and towel ready to go and when I got there, she told me she is not supposed to be in the water or anything until she gets an okay from the doctor. So we didn't swim or anything. Just sat at the cafe and chatted while the kids played at daycare.

I was disappointed in some ways because I felt maybe my friend coaxed me into going to the YMCA to  just chat with her and she didn't want me to workout while I am there. Another friend showed up and I haven't seen her in months. Wow, did she lose a lot of weight. She looks really good and slim. She too has been going to the Y and we tried to meet up several times but something always come up and we never got a chance to get together. I decided I better meet with her soon and find out what she been doing to lose all that weight.

As for my friend with the surgery, she has put on a lot of weight since then. I can understand since she has been in a lot of pain and can't do much around the house or with the kids. So she's been in bed most of the time. I just have a feeling that she probably feeling down about herself putting on all the weight and not be able to do anything. She told us how she felt like she lost 3 months of her life with this surgery and pain she kept having. I don't blame her for feeling that way.

So I will be staying home today and will do some Gilad workout and maybe T-tapp if I have enough energy left. I want to take my daughter swimming today since it's been hot lately. I lost 1 lb of the weight I gained and hope to get the rest of them off by next week. It's so hard to get back in the routine when you've been out of town for so long.

Sometimes....

Sometimes your plans are thwarted by the actions of others.  And sometimes it's worth it.  It sounds like your friend really needed somebody to talk to.  I'm glad you were able to be there for her.  I'm sorry that it interfered with your exercise, but you can make it up.  You are a great friend!

Doing Great

Only 14 lbs to go - I'd say you're doing extremely well.  Keep up those workouts!  Enjoy your day.

Welcome Back

Welcome back! Im glad you are back home and that you had a wonderful vacation! I forgot how long you were going to be gone for! Im glad that you got out and you had a nice vacation with the family!

I was reading your earlier posts about realizing alot about not only you but your family. Good job! Those are huge tasks to understand your family because its all so different, the good thing is you are understanding it and trying to learn from it!

Im glad that you are getting back to your routine! In no time that "fake weight" is going to come off! Keep on going!

Happy Thursday!

So Close

You are so close to goal.  I'm sorry about your friend that had surgery.  I agree that it is strange that she didn't know she couldn't go in the water until after she had already made plans with you????  Don't let it deter you from you goals though.  You've done so well!
