Back again…….

My life has been outta control for the last few months and this website always remained on the back of my mind.  I had a hysterectomy two weeks ago yesterday and I really want to get back on track.  Have been a little discouraged for several reasons..immediate ones are that my dr says that he doesn’t want me to exercise “using abdominal muscles” for 6 weeks because he had to do some internal repairs with the surgery, and also all of my well-meaning friends think that they need to be looking after me lol and they keep taking me out to dinner!!!!!!!  Other reasons are that both of my kids left for college two weeks ago and for the first time since my husband left, I am all by myself….and not working to top it off while I am on leave for my surgery. 

I do want to take advantage of this time to get my eating habits back on track before I go back to work.  I was having some success with eating 6 small meals a day before and I think I will go back to that again.  As for the exercise…..I will try some walking and working with dumbells while sitting on my exercise ball for now.  It feels really good to be back on this site, I find posting on the blog is helpful.  So, I’m off to make a grocery list, hit the store and get back on track.  Wish me luck!

    I am dreading for 17 years to pass and my little man going off onto his own. I can’t imagine how hard it is to have an empty nest. Glad to hear you are back and getting ready to get back in the swing of things. Take care of yourself first! Sending an air hug your way!

    I had a hysterecomy in December and really fell off the wagon with my excercise! Actually have fallen off everything! I used it as an excuse! I am back on track and plan on staying there! I am glad that you are here and not doing that!
    Take of yourself and do what you can do for now!
    Have a great day!
