    Oh my goodness this week has been bonkers! :neutral:

    Lots of work, family visits, etc. I've not been able to log yesterday but food was good.

    Lots of walking these past few days and I'm annoyed I didn't wear my Fitbit haha!!

    Looking forward to a more settled week next week. I know have a car so I'll be hoping to get in at the gym on top of run club :smile:

    It's hard not being able to do anything after my surgery. It will be a month before I can slowly start to do any activity. Hopefully after tomorrow I can go out for a little walk. But I have my new skinny arms to look forward to after the skin removal surgery!!!

    Wow! I bet it is hard to have to take things so slow. I'm truly wishing you a speedy, full recovery!

    Way to go @2nelune ! Shoveling snow is a great workout (even if I hate it).

    Thanks! I actually enjoy it (weird I know), so I do the majority of shoveling at our house. :smile:

    I was wondering if you got the same snow we did @2nelune , then I realized you were in Illinois. I live near Milwaukee, so it looks like we were blessed by the same snow.

    Tonight was 15 minutes on the treadmill and then over 20 minutes doing a circuit workout. Feeling pretty beat right now. It's been too long of a break and I didn't start slowly but picked up where I left off 12 days ago. Probably not wise.

    I've definitely done this before where I try to do too much a little too soon. It's amazing how quickly the body adjusts. Good job and I hope you get some good rest!
