I went into hernia surgery weighing around 180 pounds… and less than 24 hours later, I was up about 10 pounds.
But I knew that didn’t mean I’d gained 10 pounds of body fat.
In this episode, I’m sharing how surgery went and what I’m doing with my nutrition, activity, and recovery while I’m taking time away from lifting. I walk through why I’m still eating around 2,800 calories, how I’m approaching protein and steps, and my plan for easing back into workouts once I’m cleared.
I also talk about the mental side of seeing your body look different when you’re already doing everything you can.
It’s easy to feel like, “Well, I can’t work out right now, so what’s the point?” But the things you’re still able to do matter. You can take care of yourself and feel proud of those actions, even when your routine—and your body—looks a little different.
If you’re navigating an injury, surgery, or a stretch where your normal routine just isn’t possible, I think you’ll get a lot out of this one.
