HERNIA

Well, I did not post Monday because I spent my morning at the Doctors where I was told I have a small Inguinal Hernia. Doctor said I might not need surgery, but he made me an appt. with the surgeon to get a second opinion. I go next Tuesday to meet with the surgeon and to find out my fate. I hear Hernia surgery isn't too awful though, in most cases it is outpatient.

Anyway, my weigh in on Monday was 233.6. So I am still losing weight, although I think that trend will slow down now that I am unable to workout. So we will see how that goes.
I will try to update this more to let you know how the whole"hernia" thing is working out.

I just hope I am up and running before Highland Games season gets into swing.

Cheers!

Post Holiday Slump

Well, I haven't posted anything lately, so I thought I would just add this update.
I decided not to weigh in this week, as I knew the results would be less than stellar following my Thanksgiving weekend scarf fest. I could not miss out on Thanksgiving this year, so I just ate what I wanted and that was the end of it, surprisingly I ate much less than I normally do on Holidays, with the exception of pie, I had me plenty of pie this weekend.

I haven't lifted much lately but that is due to a muscle strain in my groin region. Actually got it coughing while I as sick, and it is still on the mend and don't want to make it worse, so I have been taking it easy. I have been doing cardio a couple nights a week still though (jogging and walking doesn't seem to bother the muscle injury, just things where I am doing a lot of pushing)

I am hoping to get into the gym tonight to do some light lifting, and I am hoping I can start lifting heavy soon, but if the injury doesn't heal, it may be Doctor time!! So I am hoping for it to heal on its own.

I will weigh in probably next Monday with hopefully some good results (although Sunday is my Birthday!)

Cheers.
