Greetings, my Fancy Followers!
Thank you all for the well wishes and greetings!
I am healing slowly with both arms in a compression garment and wrapped over with ace bandages. They remain elevated on pillows as often as possible. I will see the surgeon tomorrow for the one week follow-up.
I can tell it will be at least another week before I even consider the gym for just walking the treadmill or armless elliptical.
I allowed my favorite foods the last few days - big carbs and I feel crappy now. I prefer my usual nutrition plan.
As soon as the post-surgery bloating goes down and I can better manage grocery shopping and cooking, I will return to limiting my calories and carbs again. I always feel better and hope to reduce any gain over the holiday.
Note to self: 55-65%/30-40%/5-10%
