I am beginning to feel stronger...Yea!! I have been able to get up the last 2 days and take a shower (instead of a bath), get the dishes washed and make toad in the hole for the twins. I am not overly perky, but I do have the energy to do this without feeling wiped out.
I continue to feel sore from my stair exercise a couple of days ago. I did walk yesterday, so I don't know if that kept my muscles from healing. I have to go for pulmonary function tests today during my lunch hour, so I won't be walking. I am hoping that the break will help my muscles heal. I will lift some free weights at home this evening, working on my arm strength.
At lunch today, I was excited to see that my caloric intake was 200 calories less than I usually am. My goal today was to keep my calories at or under 2000, and I have been on target for that today.
Good news, my pulmonary function test didn't take as long as it should have, so I was able to get a 30 minute walk in!! Yipee!!
All in all it has been a good day. Now if I can control the evening munchies, I'll be doing well.
Today's goal: eat 2000 calories or less
Tomorrow's goal: Walk at lunch
