I have been doing decently. Not as good as I ought to be but decent. I've been trying to stay away from chocolate. Not 100% sucessful, which is fine. When I want something sweet I've been eating manderine oranges, green apples, or frozen pomegranite seeds. The frozen seeds are fantanstic! I would say I have been doing the fruit thing for atleast a month now. They are out of my frozen seeds now though at Trader Joes. So I got chocolate instead.... yah. What can a gal say?
I've been doing really well on the exercise. I don't know if I mentioned it or not, but I rejoined the rock gym a few weeks back. I have been going. I think for the past two weeks I have done yoga for 1.25 hours twice a week. I've also had a little bit of climbing, eliptical, treadmill, and swimming in there. Unfortunately, exercise seems to flare up my pain symptoms. I believe yoga is typically okay. Some moves may I ought not to do. Need to ask my PT about it again. Swimming I believe made things worse. Eliptical I think made things worse. Climbing, I am going to have to just boulder one day and do nothing else and see what happens. Same with yoga. Walking on the treadmill I believe is okay. Boring, but ok.
It's frustrating.
Pain is already frustrating enough, but doing things to try and keep up my fitness flaring things up sucks. I also am now on a much higher dose of one of my meds, that can cause weight gain (which I think it does in me). Grrr... I am going to keep on keeping on though.
