My surgery is August 8th (Big Mac's B-day in fact  ) and yes, I'm going to be down for a while. Everyone keeps telling me at least 4 weeks before I'll feel like doing anything but I'm shooting for 2 weeks cuz I don't have 4 weeks to lay around lol... I have Vegas coming up quick and girls soccer to coach starting August 20th! I"m going to take Sam and LeeLee's advice and really try to eat clean, drink lots of liquids and take vitamins... hopefully that will get me healed quicker (and take a little poundage off in the process lol). Thanks for stoppin' by Humps... always a pleasure to have your positive attitude in my thread!  Quote: |

I've heard tummy tucks can leave a person out of commission for sometime... I don't know quite how long but, the body obviously needs a good amount of time to heal itself after that kind of surgery. I would just try to make sure your diet is as flawless as it can be while your healing just because exercise will probably be forbidden for awhile. An impeccibly clean diet on it's own for a good time can have some great results for when your ready to resume your exercise routines. | Hey Sam! How's it going? I've heard the same thing (something like 4 to 6 weeks). Basically between the muscles being sewn together and then your skin being S-T-R-E-T-C-H-E-D FAR beyond comfort, there's a lot of healing to do! I'm excited though! I've had this stupid little pooch for years and I really believe it kills my motivation to get into tip top shape! I will definitely take your advice on the flawless diet while I'm down... BTW thanks for pointing out everything I have going on in my life... somedays I'm pretty hard on myself because I don't get everything done... I appreciate the recognition.
WELL.... I ate like SHIT today! I DID do my 30 minutes of cardio this morning but after this, I'm off to the gym for weights and I'm throwing in extra cardio to try to counter-act the damage lol... I've really gotta work on the diet! It sucks because once I get into it, eating clean is easy but once I slip, it takes FOREVER for me to get back on track! 
Only 11 days til surgery! |

Rep Power: 26 | | Well... last night at the gym went well. They have these bikes called Expresso Fitness and you basically can play games or ride with other people on the screen. It was good cuz I was trying to get up to the front of the pack... Trained legs too.
This morning I got up and took my kids to the skate park. I walk/jogged for 30 minutes while they skated.
I really think I need a new scale... Mine has been stuck on 159 .2 for the past week. Day or night, clothed or unclothed, empty stomach of full, I weight 159 .2... WTH?!!! Ha! I told my hubby last night that I probably weigh 125 and I just THINK I'm fat cuz the scale says so lol...
Well anyway... hoping to have the STRENGTH to eat better today! Off to work, I'll be back on later... |

Rep Power: 37 | | | Did you come up with alternative points? I still need to post something in the vegas thread about this for people who might get sick or injured along the way, just in case.
I haven't read everything in your diary, I know we talked about it recently.
Let me know what your ideas are. |
