View THEFATCHICK's food & exercise for this day

Happy 1st Day of Summer Everyone! Things are turning around slowly but surely. Because the Dr appt was Thursday my usual training session with Elle was moved to yesterday, Normally I like the training days 2 days apart, not sure why but I feel a little weaker on the third day. To my suprise everything went very well!

I've wrote before about my bad knees and limitations because of them but yesterday I was able to do a wall squat and hold it for a FULL minute with good form! :thumbu2: Then we were able to increase ALL of my weights by 5 pounds and I was able to go through the sets faster, still with good form! :clap: :clap: :clap:

I could not believe how much of a difference there was, how much stronger, confident and good I felt. It also seemed as though my energy level was increasing as I went, usually I'm wiped at the end but I had tons of energy...maybe even more than when I went in. Ah progress. :teeth1:

I slept great last night and this morning the scale was down again!!! I'm now at 215.9...only a few ounces I know, but I will gladly take them! :thumbu2: :thumbu2: :thumbu2:

I'm getting my grandson in a few minutes, there are so many outdoor activities today, its going to be hard to decide, but we are goung out and will enjoy the day outdoors.

On another note, I wanted to clear up something about my dr appt, I've received multiple comments and private messages regarding the post that leads me to believe I didnt articulate what I meant properly. My original Dr, "Dr. M" told me he did NOT do a full hysterectomy, the new Dr, "Dr. S" is saying she thinks he did because she couldn't feel my uterus or my cervix and why I need the ultra sound to confirm what I really have or dont have.

Now for today's quote...


"It's not what you do once in a while; it's what you do day in and day out that makes the difference."

Have a terrific day!
