So today I had the virtual appointment with my gastroenterologist who told me my biopsies from the colonoscopy came back normal and I don't have Crohn's Disease which is AMAZING! However, I do have a hyperplasia mucosal lump or inflamed hyperplastic polyp in my bum which she said happens to many people and may or … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 76: Colonoscopy Results
Today was a crazy busy day where I was dragging my body for a good part of the morning, but it turned out to be a triumphant day for me physically. I took my lunch hour and accompanied my mom to get some groceries quickly and embraced the inspiration to cook a new quick side … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 73
Lately, it's been a hit or miss as far as the energy I have, so when I do have the energy, I try to do all the errands I can or tackle things I have had to put on the back burner. Yesterday, I was on fire with all the energy I had and I … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 71
On Friday, the lens of my glasses popped out and it was too late to get to the Optometrist's office and I couldn't fix them so I had to use my old glasses which sucked because everything is blurry, (dark for some reason.) Not sure if this was the sole cause or if the intestinal … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 70: Nostalgic Walking Meditation

The esophagitis has been unreal with the pain in the chest, coughing when I breath etc. I was supposed to start the PPI Voquenza on Tuesday, but it was my mom's birthday, then yesterday was a mass at St … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 63
Yesterday I was determined to start the Bedflex program over on the DDPY app and I did. The best part about the DDPY app is that is lays it all out for you each week and you can either add or change whatever workout you want to do that day. Today I did Bed Flex … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 62
This Halloween, my brother and I ended up not walking in the New York City Village parade this year like we had done the past 3 years. The pain and discomfort from the esophagitis was significant and I honestly did not feel strong enough to put on my costume and make that trek to the … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 61: The Month of Giving Thanks
Today I attempted to do quick 40 minute Vinyasa Yoga session. A workout I have done multiple times in the past with a bit of ease after having practiced for over a year, however, looking back, I have not done Vinyasa yoga since early September 2023. With all the issues I have been having with … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 43
It's been 3 days since I checked in and 3 days since I worked out. I definitely don't want to go any longer without getting on the mat, walking, gliding or doing any sort of activity because as I've mentioned before, it's a slippery slope for me and I've come a long way since mid … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 42
