Tried walking on the treadmill this morning. Toes of my left foot kept hitting the walking belt and tripping me up. Made for a very aggravating exercise session. :mad: I'll keep trying because I'm pretty sure it's the heat/humidity in the air that's messing with my gait.

I was planning on using the treadmill earlier this week, but hurt my knee somehow during my baseball weekend. Not sure what I did, but it hurts to bend my knee. Thinking it was a combination of a bunch of walking, and maybe the swimming I did. Either I pulled something, or maybe all the spasticity I've had lately in my legs is somehow to blame.

Going to try to go to the gym today. All I want to do is walk on the treadmill for maybe five minutes, just to make it move around. Not going for any distance, I just want to walk for a few minutes, going to try to do the same at least every other day this week.

okay - didn't 'do' the stairs today ...

but, I walked 2 miles - took me 1/2 an hour ... and by the time I got home - I was starting to hurt .. but, WORTH it ..

I've been APPROVED for AMPYRA ... waiting for the Rx from the doctor to get that started (received the pre-approval from Humana, for it tho!) ...

today is a day of rest - working on my 'to-do' list but, ENJOYING working on little tasks and finishing them ... like putting the rear-view mirror back on the windshield!!

Was out earlier walking and shopping, got my groceries, did all my housework today. It's nice out now, so I'll walk after dinner 30 min or so. Going to go do my toning/cooking now.

I have been eating a good diet, and drinking very well, but I am thinking about juicing and throwing a ton of good vitamins and minerals (micro nutrients) at my system. Not sure what happened. I think I have a bug. I am feverish, and my back is screaming mad which normally happens when I run a fever. I am glad its happening now, and not on vaca for Tuesday when we are going away.

I am going to spend the next 2 days resting, and will leave on Tuesday rested and ready to enjoy. Thanks for the hugs.

Dej, sorry to hear you've been feeling ill. I think the vita-drink idea sounds wonderful! :) I hope you're feeling better soon! :hug:

B12 B12 B12 B12 B12. I upped mine from 500 to 1000mcg's every morning. Hope you all take B12 for energy. Notice energy drinks have lots of B's.

SallyC 07-24-2011 09:34 PM

I think I was having an adverse reaction to the 5000mg of methyl b12, so I stopped taking it. I may start up again, once this heat wave subsides.

I'm glad it's helping you Eddie..:hug:
