Last night I began getting pain all over my body. My back, head, legs, neck, arms and shoulders were aching bad enough I thought I'd have to take Tylenol. Taking Tylenol is nothing bad of course if you take it as indicated, but I am not a fan of taking anything if I can help … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 105: Pushing Through the Pain
Monday nights I usually watch wrestling on Netflix which is a nice way to end the first day of work week. I've watched wrestling since I was a kid. Then as an adult I would watch it off and on depending on my work schedule. When my dad passed away in 2022, I began watching … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 104: Quieting the Mind
The whole of last week I did DDPY, pushing myself to do Stand Strong II then Stand Strong III, aside from getting my steps in to complete part of the checklist for the DDPYoga Beast Mode program, going to my doctor's appt and getting some errands done during my lunch hour. Considering weeks ago I … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 103: Pain, DDPYoga and Determination
Today I woke up absolutely ravenous. The hunger pangs and acid that my stomach produces when I am hungry is not fun. However I cannot eat breakfast so early in the morning lately because even though I'm hungry, I get nauseous. So I had a little bit of water, got dressed and did my 9th … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 101: Counting the Wins

It looks like I have all my test results from the bloodwork and stool tests and all are negative for infections/parasite and normal. I mean that's amazing right? But this leaves me hanging. Leaves me with uncertainty and that is as Sheldon Cooper would say MALARKEY! What's funny is I got a notice from WordPress … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 98: Test Results and More Uncertainty
Yesterday I said I was going to easy when doing DDPYoga and also mentioned how I was hungry, but lost my appetite. What I didn't say was that I needed to practice a little bit of patience in this whole process. Remind myself that I can't expect to be normal or okay just from one … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 97: Stubborn as a Mule
My last post I mentioned how exhausted I had been and that I was looking forward to the sound bath session I had that night. I was expecting a little bit of energy or something this time, even though I usually just go in expecting just relaxation. To say that this session was a saving … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 96: Saving Grace
In my last post I talked about the stool tests that were ordered by a new gastroenterologist. I finally got all tests back and they were ALL Negative or normal. Including that new dirty lettuce one, cyclospora. I cried. because I still feel like garbage and I have NO answers. It's been 4 weeks of … Continue reading Fitness Check Day 94: Hanging on by a Thread
A few days ago I posted about my birthday and the days that followed but didn't touch on some other things going on. Last Monday I wanted to get on the mat and despite little sleep and overall body pain, I hit the mat to do DPPYoga Energy 2.0. It was heavily modified and since … Continue reading Fitness Check In Day 92
