What is that you see?

Wha?!  My face is red and is that SWEAT you see on my forehead (look real close people)?  That's right!  This chick went walking again two days post surgery.  Yesterday I walked .7 miles in the morning and another at night.  Today I pushed a little more and walked 1.4 this morning and I may do another tonight!  Booyah fat ass!  This is going to work for me!  Jason and the little are out of town for a few weeks so my dear friends are helping take care of me.  I would like to have some weight loss to show before he comes back.  I'm not looking to change overnight...just some would be nice.  :)

After eating close to nothing for the last two days I expected some weight loss today.  Just 1/2 pound, but I will take it.  On another note, I had my first #2 post surgery.  TMI I know, but for anyone considering surgery or concerned about their own...I don't want to leave anything out.  At least I know that my digestive system is working okay all the way through.  

I am still really thirsty.  I ate some tomato soup yesterday and I think today I will just stick with protein shakes and water.  I think the sodium in the soup and it filling me up was too much.  Need more water.  It's so hard to teach myself not to gulp.  I am supposed to sip.  I have been a lifetime gulper.  This will be a hard habit to change.  When I am thirsty I want instant satisfaction!!  

Thanks to all for visiting.  Writing this blog has been therapeutic.  I can't wait to look back at it after I have lost a lot of weight.  Ahhh memories!

    You're amazing!! Keep up the awesome work! I'm worried about the water too. I usually down mine a bottle at a time... DEFINITELY not a sipper. The first thing I do every morning is down a bottle just to feel human. Will I survive?!?!

      I don't know Rose! I am the same way. When I figure it out I will let you know. Honestly, the gas is terrible. It really hurts. Otherwise I am doing well. No big weight loss yet. I'm still waiting.
