Happy July - Goals and Post-Op Update

Happy July!!!!  A new month with new goals!  I have had a pretty stagnant first half of the year with weight loss, but I have learned a lot about myself.  Attending Fitbloggin was a wonderful thing for me this year and really sparked my enthusiasm for this blog.  I will write a recap or two about my trip soon, but I am still processing everything from the long weekend.

BUT, here are my goals for July:
I had another post-op visit today.  Doctor said I could start walking on it without crutches or the knee scooter for the next two weeks.  He suggested using a cane to kinda help balance myself in the beginning.  I am having a lot of pain on the bottom of my heel on that foot when I step all the way down.  He said it is most likely plantar faciitis.  He said that is very common after this surgery because the foot has been immobile for so long.  He thinks it should go away on it's own, but if not he will give me a steroid shot when I see him again in three weeks.  So hopefully that goes away quickly.  I look like a zombie when I am walking, but with practice it should get easier!

In case you missed it yesterday, here were my goodies from my WW Cheer Buddy for June:

There are still a few days to join Weight Watcher's Cheer Buddies for July. For more information click here! Check it out!

Also, I am still looking for more stories to share for Transformation Tuesday! If you would like a chance to tell your story, click here to fill out the form.  I LOVE seeing all of the inspiration and we have to lift each other up! We are all in this together!

That is it for today! Sending you all love and healthy wishes!

Day 564 - Weight Watcher's Cheer Buddies - PLEASE READ



I would love to start a Weight Watcher themed version of the Foodie Pen Pal program I have been doing. We are all together on this journey and we need to encourage each other and lift each other up! And let's face it, who doesn't like receiving packages in the mail.  This is open to anyone in the US who is using the Weight Watchers program.  Here are the guidelines:

1. Every month you will be matched up with another Weight Watcher. Look for an email from me by the 5th of each month.
2. By the 15th of the month, you should send out your package. You are responsible for figuring out the best way to ship your items depending on their size and how fragile they are. (Don’t forget about flat rate boxes!)
3. Spending limit of $15
4. Contact your buddy ASAP to get address and check for any dietary restrictions or food allergies.  Also notify your buddy when you ship out your package and when you receive the one they sent!
5.  Can be a mixture of food, fitness thingys, motivational goodies, etc. Anything to help our journey to becoming a better version of ourselves.
6. Include the point+ values for food items.
7. Include a handwritten note of encouragement and motivation.
8. If you blog, Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, reveal the goodies you received on the last day of the month! Use the hashtag #wwcheerbuddies so we can all find your posts!

I hope this is something you are interested in doing.  I am not sure how this will go so if I get at least 4 people interested, we will start in June!  Share this with all of your friends and family that are also doing Weight Watchers!

Sending you all love and healthy wishes!
