Dej, that's awesome:D

BBS, 100 Women Who Care is a national organization, so it's probably linked.

Today I stayed home; DS34 brought his dog and puppy over for a couple of hours, so I Wiid in the afternoon for 40 minutes...I was drenched by the time I was done:) am paying the price now, though...ankles/calves are spasming and hurting:(. But at least I worked out!

Well I'm frankly WORN out watching the tennis and the cycling here. We have the australian open (Federer tonight) and Lance is in town in the Tour Down Under.
Exhausting stuff watching it all.

Too hot to do much today (115 degrees). and I'm covered in cold sores so keeping out of the pool too. (BB- it's the everlasting swim jet spa. i don't do public pools- i have a wet floor phobia)

Pud? have you tried Llysine? can you get it there? its in the same place as the Vit D and Vit C stuff in American pharmacies. Its a true blessing when cold sores rule the day. Abbreva is a cream that really does help with killing the virus early too. 115 is insane! Hang in there.

I went for a walk this morn, and only made it half way again. I leave my drive and go right, its 1/2 mile to get back to my drive. If I keep going to the top of the road and back, its another 1/2 mile. I made only half the loop. Im just too tired, and its too cold.

Hi Debbie, good work out, but I'm sorry about the spasms. That stinks...

pud: When its that hot, its hard to do anything. Do you feel phobic if you wear flip flops. Thats what I do so I wont catch anything from the wet floors int he locker room

Hi Dejibo: Its not "only" a 1/2 mile. What you can say is, "Even though MS is kicking my butt right now, I proudly walked a 1/2 mile--"


It was up to 82 outside today so the swim was very nice in an otherwise cold pool of 79. One mile swim.

walked today a bit not much else...

I did 10 minutes on the treadmill and 20 on the elliptical this morning. :)

Dejibo 01-22-2010 09:25 AM

I got a pair of swim shoes to wear in the local pool. its heated in the winter, and I use them in the lake here. I hate stepping on icky things in the water, but what I hate worse is athletes feet! I always drag out my shoes when I go to strange pools, like the PT pool at the hospital. I chuck them in the washer at the end of the day, and add a touch of bleach. I have been AF free for many years since doing this. Even when traveling to strange motels/hotels.

I did 1/2 mile today. I didnt even push for the other half, and I am not going to beat myself up over it. I am going to try some Wii fit in a little while, and wanted to save energy. It was nice to be outside tho.

I got on a recumbant bike yesterday...broke the surgeon's rules, but I just can't walk well right now...it felt so good to work out without the severe shin and hip flexor spasms...
also did my upper body weight workout...
no workout today, though...legs are so tight after yesterday...just have to rest up, I guess...

BBS1951 01-22-2010 08:26 PM

You are doing very well Dejibo --keep up the great work. Do you not trust the chlorine in the pool to kill the AF fungus? Our pool is so deep, I never touch bottom anyway.

nice Job Debbie.I hope the rest helps.

Hi sabi: Good for you for getting out there.

ewiz: as always, nice job.

I swam a mile today.

Dejibo 01-23-2010 09:34 AM

walk 1/2 mile today. Have a headache, and just couldnt finish. I am going to sit in my chair and watch movies the rest of the day. Im done. :(
