Went to the gym again today and found that because I hadn't been there in so long, I forgot how to use a lot of the machines. My old trainer is in Switzerland playing baseball so I can't even get set back up with him a few times a month. Guess it wouldn't be too smart since I'm not sure what I'll be able to do after my surgery. I still don't know a time frame on when I can start an ab and core workout post-op, no one really has an answer.

I weighed in this morning and found that I lost 5 pounds. I also learned today, which if you think about it it makes sense, you can't turn fat into muscle. You just burn away fat and build a bigger, stronger muscle as you workout.

I wish today was October 1st. I'm not nervous, I'm excited and anxious to get this going.
