Thanks for the encouragement. This experience has been rough on me. I worked my tail off to get my weight down. So to not be able to go out and exercise is like torture. One of the things about me, I was a big guy, always was. I have eating problems that I struggle with every day. I eat without even thinking about it. I will be in a conversation, and I'm eating while I'm talking without even realizing I'm doing it. The worst thing is some people talk in their sleep, or walk, I get up and eat without even waking up. I've kept it controlled the last year by working extra hard to keep my weight maintained. I need to get over that, just hard to stay motivated when you can't even take a simple walk.
I'm heading back to the back doctor today to see what else they can do for me. I bought a bike, and it seems a little easier on the back, just hard to get over that metal rod shoved up your ass feeling.
