Two weeks post-surgery

2 weeks post-surgery!

Look at me go!! 🙂 I went to the Y last night while the kids were at youth church & used some weight machines without weight (2 sets of 15 on about 4 machines), then went to the cardio room & used an awesome machine called a recumbent cross-trainer. It’s basically an elliptical, only sitting down! I made it a whole 10 min!  Woohoo! 🙂

I’m happy to see the swelling diminishing. Each day is a little bit better. (Those two “steri strips” will stay on for another week or so. They’re basically glued-on first aid tape, and the doc said that once they start curling off themselves, then I can remove them. They are just to protect the incisions where my stitches were while the skin heals.)

I did some physical therapy stretches after we got home, then iced it for about 30 min before bed. It was sore this morning, but not terribly so — not really painful, just stiff.

Progress! 🙂
