8 weeks post-op today

Okay so today I did P90X legs & back. I didn't even feel like trying pull-ups or pull-downs, instead I grabbed 10 lb weights & did a few different variations of bent-over rows. It all felt VERY good, I'll probably be really sore from it. I only grabbed 5 lb weights when we did calf-raises squats & the calf sequence, everything else was body weight. On the 3 way lunges I didn't even think of picking up a leg after a lunge for a kick (don't need to engage the abs more).

With the binder weaning I go about 6 hours with it off, put it on for a couple hours (helps swelling), then have it off the rest of the day & night. I'm not wearing it much, I probably wouldn't wear it if I wasn't working out, but I need to work out to get my fitness back & to drop some fat. I can't magically maintain a hot figure, I'm not lucky like that. Eating clean is now routine & pretty easy, but I am fighting bad food urges here & there. Hopefully I will see progress with scale &/or measurements on Friday when I check it all again.

Time is really flying now! I can't believe it's been 8 weeks already!
