Hi, I'm Dee. Recovering from back surgery with the hopes that this will be the last in a long run of surgeries so I can have a better quality of life.
Meanwhile, I want to also focus on losing weight. Since I cannot (obviously) exercise much... diet is pretty much the only thing I CAN control. I'm still restricted on what I can lift, no bending, and only allowed to go for short walks (20 minutes, tops!).
But I'm not going to let it get me down... it was worse before surgery.
So here I am. I know I'm going to need a lot of support and inspiration.
