Marginal eating. Went to the Y and walked the track and did Pilates and lifted weights. We've been doing Pilates for lower body--wow does the Reformer KILL my inner thighs and hamstrings. Then weights for upper body because the shoulder's not "100%" until the 1-year postop mark (fast approaching 9 months!), and the PT I ended up with thought it best to hold off on the Reformer until then. I lifted some heavier weights today and the shoulder felt great. It felt SO good to lift more and actually lift to fatigue. I think I'm starting to feel a little bit of that old obsession for the weights and Pilates come back. I'm going to go twice a week with K, trainer extraordinaire, while I'm off the next two weeks and see if that doesn't get my lazy a$$ back on track.
Otherwise, one more night of work before MUCH time off. Yay! Family wedding this weekend should be fun. Otherwise, planning some shopping, lots of time with friends, lots of coffee time, hopefully a couple movies, and who knows what else. Anything constructive accomplished will be considered a bonus.
I always loved the weights also but fear my shoulder will never get better. When can I be pain free from it? Sigh.

Hey, girls. Julie--it gets better. How far out are you? Has it been 2 or 3 months? It DOES get better. Wish it was already for you. I hear ya, babe. Val, I'm thinking the men aren't work it, but thanks!
