Morning peeps :)


I am truly alive again. So happy. It just makes such a change to wake up & feel well. I woke up in the middle of the night with a coughing fit, but once I had cleared my lungs & nose I was able to get back to sleep again. I still have some symptons, but I think I really am over the worst now :)

I went to the gym last night for the 1st time in 10 days. I used the eliiptic for 30 minutes (slow) and then trained with James for another 1/2 hour. I did ask him to be gentle with me, & he was. He made me use the TRX for squats & different arm exercise alternating with lunges combined with a 4kg medicine ball. Nothing drastic but I still worked up a decent sweat. This morning I can feel my body gently aching & its a really good feeling!!!

I even managed to do a lot better with my eating than I have done recently. Still not perfect, but much much better :)

Not sure if I will manage to get to the gym tonight, but I will try to get some exercise in one way or another!

Ahhh...its great to be alive & take deep breaths :)

Good to hear that you are feeling better! The bugs that have been going around this winter seem to be so nasty, hanging on forever and really laying people up for long periods. I was still blowing my nose several times a day for more than two weeks after the rest of my Christmas cold symptoms disappeared! It sounds like you had a nice reintroduction to the gym. I had to smile to myself when you said that "my body gently aching" is a "really good feeling". Only a fellow weight training fanatic would understand :) Have a great day!
