Hi Almost and Cardie,
Cardie you are always such a great support. Appreciate you big time, I'm thinking about therapy end of the month by that time I'll be very solid on my feet and energy levels strong, then all I need to worry about is the actually excercises and not stress about being wiped out. I do think in some sense I'm a little behind, I'm awful and will admit I no longer do the home exercises. I always liked Josephine's comment that our hips have a way of healing by themselves. Surely by now you can tell I'm not a huge lover of working out. My walking adventures I love, I could walk forever outside and be happy! By the end of this month though I will be ready for a PT professional to help me balance out and strengthen my walk and nip my limp all together.
The scale...I know your right that's why I had dumped the last scale, it was old too. See next comment.....
Almost they have the scale on the fitbit website however they are not shipping till end of April. Does the scale on Withings website work with the fitbit? It's the same manufacturer not sure why wait. I did like the idea of this type of scale.
Cardie...I sometimes need a little one of one competitive type of toys, the scale would make me focused with the numbers etc. I'm pondering I might wait for a minute and maybe not get one.
Love adding coconut oil into protein drinks
with eating what I will do is next week to jump start myself is only eat red meat (don't cringe) and raw green only veggies, 2 eggs a day along with a grapefruit in the am and pm along with tons of water. Funny part is i can eat as much steak and veggies as i want no limit. I know there is a little mixed thoughts about red meat, however it's good iron intake. I did this last June with this health nutrition lady she was refered to me by my OS nurse. After the first week I then go onto a very healthy style eating plan, the steak goes back to maybe 2 times a week if desired and portioned control.
I will ask this if there is anyone reading.....I have a coworker who has a Hurom juicer and swears by it. We are alike Im not a huge lover of veggies especially the dark leafy ones, the juicer idea looks like a good way to get all ones daily veggie intake into a drink. No way am I eating raw or cooked kale, celery, sprouts list goes on.....Only one I can eat is spinach in a salad. The one thing i did learn last year before my surgery is that food plays a huge role in inflammation big time! I was heating healthy and feeling fabulous walking into my surgery.
Any thoughts on juicing would be appreciated. Its not a inexpensive adventure, I want to be sure before I plunge in
Many thanks!
