Still trying to lose weight, Someday I will get it right

I did pretty good today, I started a 3 mile Leslie but I could only manage to do 30 minutes. I rested for a while and then baby and I went outside. The temp was 64 and he and I needed fresh air. We walked and talked and played hide and seek in the yard. We played outside about 35 minutes.

With all of that I put 6136 steps on my pedometer, but I ate1485 calories. I would like to get that down to around 1200-1300.

I was talking to a younger woman that had the same operation done. She had hers a little over 6 months ago and she carried her baby up several flights of stairs and then began spotting and having pain.

My dr. told me that this operation is not like normal operations and it takes a long time to get over it. I did not realize it would be so long. And 57 does not heal like age 20 and 30 does. So how long will I be tired? How long before I can pick baby up and put him in the car seat? Maybe never. Will I be well enough to ever push the lawn mower ? I still can't sweep or vacumn, I can't rake my yards.


My complaining is done. I am still better off than I was before the operation. I would have had no quality of life had I not had it done. The prolapse was pretty bad. And maybe I won't be able to do some things but I can still do a lot of things like walk and in time lift light weights. I can do arobics.

I will get stronger.

Sleep well
