5 Pounds

I am down 5 pounds since surgery. Eating really isn't a problem, but I truly get satisfied after 2 small spoonfuls of soup. It takes me about 30 minutes to eat 4 ounces of creamed soup. I prefer room temperature beverages over cold. 

My legs are still a little sore from all the walking I did in the hospital but I am getting up and walking.  Just not a mile at a time.  Yesterday I walked half a mile in the morning and half a mile in the evening.  Today I have already walked .75 miles and will walk more later.  I just don't want to make myself hurt and then not be able to walk because I know how important walking is to my weight loss and recovery.

No lifting of more than 10 lbs leaves me not much to do.  I would love to be decorating for the holidays, but I guess it will have to wait. 

Over all I think I'm doing a great job with my walking, protein and water intake.
