Not much new to report

Yes, the title says it all. There is not much new to report. As they say, no news is good news, right!? Today is my 3 week point as to when I can fax the internist. I'm struggling with it though. As much as I want to I'm not up to exercising 45 minutes a day yet. I have asked around to others who were near around what I weigh and they said they were not doing any kind of exercise prior to surgery and they came out just fine. I am exercising just not 45 minutes a day. I mean that is sort of extreme for someone my size that isn't being supervised. I'm definitely working up to it though and I know the water aerobics will help. I haven't joined the gym yet as we are working through the financial aspect of it but hoping to join this week. In the meantime I am riding the bike almost everyday for about 15-20 minutes a day. Then I will do either weights, wii or resistance band exercises.

I will be setting my appointment tomorrow for my physical therapist and then on Friday I will be calling for an appointment for an ultrasound. Other than that I am doing well. I've lost 63 pounds altogether. I feel like I should be losing more with the radical change I've made. I'm not eating processed carbs, having a protein shake as one of my meals (breakfast), no snacks during the day (only lunch & dinner) and then under 1500 calories a day (most days under 1200 calories) plus I am exercising. I will up the water intake and see if that helps.

Other than that... that is it from me... I'm trying to post more often just as a outlet for me. Plus something to come back to when I've lost a bunch of weight and may be having a hard time.

Take care y'all.
