Hello everyone!

After a life changing major surgery this past November (pancreatic surgery -2/3 pancreas and spleen removed and no cancer) I learned I need to put on my oxygen first and then assist others after that. So now I've gotten a health wake up call and I'm back on MyFitnessPal.

I'm not back into a full workout schedule, I'm stretching, walking a bit and my diet has been clean for a while. I still have about 20 lbs to go and want to tone up - 30 stitches across my stomach - need to work on that core!!

I've gotta take things slow because of my healing but one day at a time and I will reach my goal. I'm looking for some online friends to take those steps with!

Happy New Year to Everyone and thanks for stopping in!!

Kelle

    Take it easy, slow and steady... Hate it when those wake up calls come and dont give ya no warning... Good luck to you :)
  • Congrats on your commitment to a healthy lifestyle. Good luck on your journey. I'll sent you a friend request.
  • I too have just had surgery (gall bladder removal and hernia repair)...and must take things slow...I would luv it if you would consider becoming friends here so I too have some1 who like me has to do it at a slower pace...at least the exercising portion of it...
