1st Day Back At The Gym

Yesterday I decided to see how well I would do back at the gym. I didn't want to overdue it since I was only 11 days post-op. My friend and I drove together, she was totally cool with leaving if I wasn't feeling up to it. To my GREAT surprise I did a half hour on the elliptical (no arms and going at a much slower pace than usual) and another half hour of walking on the treadmill. By the end I was sore but felt ok. I took today off just in case, plus I am a member of the PTA and Tuesdays I help out at the school anyway. I am excited to get my butt exercising again and will be there first thing tomorrow morning. Now all I have to do is wait until the doctor says I am ok with lifting weights and I will be more than thrilled. :) I KNOW I must have gained weight over these past couple of weeks with no working out and having my mother-in-law in town, we ate so nasty but it was soo good. haha
