Haven’t journaled since before my 2nd surgery as I’m not weighing until swelling subsides.
What’s been going well: Surgery and recovery - so happy with augmentation and my arm flippers being gone! Had time to reflect and set new health goals post-recovery now that weight loss isn’t the aim. Anxious to get started 😊
What’s been a challenge: Work trip days before surgery resulted in altitude sickness, then a cold and sinus infection and for someone who tries to push through sickness at big work events by feeding myself to get energy to function, it was a carb-y few days I had to bounce back from while being sick during first week of recovery. Glad that week’s over!
What’s next: DEXA scan May 4th to get body composition and understand resting metabolic rate. Both will help me determine what fat loss/lean mass development goals I might have and give me a better understanding of maintenance calories. Then starting with an online fitness coach May 6th to work on new strength training approach that will help me with body composition/definition.
Hope everyone is well!
