12 Week out and feeling great

It has been a little over 12 weeks since I had my back surgery.  I am officially restriction free... though I pretty much have some restrictions for the rest of my life because I have some other sketchy disks.


I am feeling good as new these days as far as it comes to my back.  However, my weight situation is not so super.  I started getting really hardcore today and counting calories and pre-planning meals.  I need to drop a good 20 lbs and my clothes are all tight.  I can't keep pretending that I am making good food choices and that I can handle it without counting calories. 


Now that I am okay to exercise again, I need to do more.  I need to have a physical in a couple of months and I would like to make a dent in my weight loss.  Hopefully it will stick this time.

I so happy for you. The back pain was a set back as far as exercise goes but now you can make a fresh start. You know that eating right and exercising reinforce each other plus you feel so great when you are back in control. Right? You got this Anna. I'm still rocking my sleeve with slow and steady weight loss. I had a little set back too because of a hip injury but I just changed from cycling to swimming. My new motto: Just keep swimming.
So Miss Anna....Just keep swimming.
Think of you,
Tracey
