Recovering

[LT9Tonya]

Well I am at home now. Still sore as can be! They cut me open in 4 places. One in belly button, 1 right underneath my rib cage on the right side-about 2 in long, and two more down right side about 1 1/2 in each. So needless to say it is really hard to get out of a chair or anything else. Doc says I can start walking Friday but I have to take it really slowly. No weights till the stiches come out next week though. And then my weight limit will be 10 pounds for the 1st week. Really cuts into my 5k training but I tell you what- if I hadn't been exercising and losing weight I wouldn't have the core strength I do have to get up and down.
I'll keep you ladies updated on my progress, going back to bed to lay down and take some more pain meds.

You poor thing! It sounds so painful. Rest up and take care of yourself. You'll be back exercising in no time don't worry!

Didn't they know where the gall bladder was? Take it easy and get well soon, 5k will still be there next year, if you can't manage to get prepped this year...and next year you can blast the time you would have clocked this time around.
