Starting to feel GOOD


It's still very 'early days' in my recovery and rebuild phase, but I am starting to feel better and stronger and motivated...again!

THANK GOD!

I just talked to a neighbour whose also recovering -- but from cancer :( -- and he's in the rebuilding phase. A "physical fitness" friend of his said that the body's "muscle memory" has a 3-month shelf-life -- after which it's like starting over from ZERO!

Maybe that explains why this has been such an uphill battle...but I am starting to see/feel the LIGHT!

Today (so far) I have done:

- my core morning routine: 3 sets of 15-reps each 1) push-ups; 2) sit-ups and 3) squats
- 30 minutes of run/walk (also getting better/stronger)
- 5 minutes of post-run stretching

I have a swim class tonight that I have not gone to since mid-February...and I am 'thinking' of going. Now that's a change!!!!

:)
