No News is Good News?

I have been busy at the office making plans to be gone 6 weeks yet I have not had any follow up from Dr. Logan's office and I am a little concerned.  Of course, those who know me know I worry about almost everything because if I don't worry enough things won't turn out right.   That is just my theory.  I still find it hard to believe that two weeks from today I will be recovering from surgery and probably very uncomfortable - everything I have read says the painful part is the tummy tuck and removal of the muscle - yes that does sound painful - but that in 2 to 3 weeks you will resume most normal activities and 6 to 8 weeks for full recovery.  The human body is an amazing thing. 

I see Dr. Z on Friday for a regular check up and I am a little dissappointed with myself.  Earlier this year and late last year I had gotten on the right track with eating very, very healthy, and exercising everyday, even if it was just an easy 30 minutes on the treadmill.  After returning from Vegas I had a bug, lost my voice and then just recently I started going to Zumba a couple times, I did one class on carpet and hurt my left knee so I had to stop all activity and let my knee heal (feels much better) and now I am afraid to try zumba again - just do it and modify.  Also, we had work done on the family room downstairs and so I had no access to the treadmill, etc. and while the work is done I have not been downstairs to at least put the treadmill  back up and reconnect the DVD so I could do Hip Hop Abs or my Zumba dvds.   I am such a whimp.   When I saw Dr. Patel in January I was down 10 pounds, BP was great and all my numbers were better.  I was hoping to continue to improve those numbers and I have gone in the wrong direction.

So, it is a great time to regroup, get back on the "take control of my life" train - and get on down the track.
