Back up and running

I think I'm getting my routine back. I have gone to the gym for 4 straight days. Working out with my trainer as well as in the pool and recumbent bike. Plus, I started stepping it up a few notches in the pool. I started adding the resistance weights and while jogging doing some of the arm exercises.

While putting on my flannels tonight, I looked it the mirror and for the first time ever I am getting the indents in my sides. Now if I could just get rid of the belly fat.

I'm also using an online website to track eating habits. Hoping to change those after this bday cake for Julie. Last of the bdays around here. YAY!

Here we go again...

So, after going off the Zoloft for a couple months, I started back on it yesterday. Poor timing to try going off it. Never go off during the most stressful time of the year, when you have the longest period of time between botox injections and travel. It was a horrible time to try this experiment. So, back on it.

My workouts have pretty much stopped for now. After Christmas, we were gone for 10 days in Missouri, then came home and started on Miranda's bday party. And of course, now I am sick.

Next week, I fully plan on getting back to routine. I need to get back to it. It truly makes a difference in how I feel overall. I have been in a lot of pain. Without the botox, they have been curling a lot. And with the new brace, I have had a lot of pain with that too. My leg cramps up.

But, I keep plugging along.

On Jan 31, I go to see Dr. Ralph for a checkup on how the brace is working, the exercise, check my liver function, etc.

On Feb 3, I go for the botox injections in my hands an left leg.
