I'm moving!

And so is the scale! We have gone to the pool a few times this week and last, so I've been taking that chance to move my butt. I've been taking the weights and doing some moves I know from aqua aerobics, along with holding on to the side and kicking my legs for 5 minutes.

According to my scale, I've lost 9 pounds compared to my Dr.'s scale. But who the heck knows what it will say on Thursday, at my appointment.

Lastly, I've joined a gym. Crazy will be going to preschool two days a week for a few hours, so I'm going to take that child free time to work on myself. I'm going to do that twice a week and aqua aerobics twice a week also, if hubby is willing to watch Crazy at 5:30 twice a week. We shall see how that goes. I love AA but getting someone to watch Crazy is hard.

Things I can't wait to say!

"Want to feel my port?"

"Why yes, I have lost weight!"

"Yeah, I do look good, thanks!"

"I'm full."

"I need to get to the gym."

"I've lost X pounds!"

Getting down to business

We were in Philly for a few days, and I was sick as a dog, so that cut down on my snacking. And we did a bit more walking then normal.

Now that we are home, I went for a 1.5 mile walk yesterday and today we headed to the pool. While hubby took care of baby boy, I did some of my aqua aerobics moves. It starts up again at the beginning of Sept. and I'm super excited. This is the one activity that I have never dreaded, and actually look forward to. I hope with losing weight, I will pick up more activities that I enjoy as much. I would love to try zumba and spinning.

I have to lose 10 lbs by my surgery date, I have an appointment at the beginning of  the month, not sure what for. I hate the scale there, it doesn't seem to budge. I seem to be at least a pound heavier there than at home.

And my date is....

October 4th!

It's later than I had hoped but it will be worth the weight ( hehe, get it?). I still have to lose about 9 pounds before the surgery. I'm going to start aqua aerobics in September but before then I should get on my bike more or go for walks. It is just so humid and gross here!

I made a ticker, as a countdown to my surgery thing, but can't figure out how to put it on here. I really suck at this blogging thing.

Surgeon Appointment Tomorrow

I have an appointment tomorrow with Dr. Ahmad. I'm super nervous but also kind of excited that I could finally have a surgery date tomorrow.

Also I've been trying to do some exercise everyday. I've mowed the lawn and gone on bike rides, I hope that this along with different eating helps me to lose a bit of weight.
