1. Medical Stuff:

• I felt SO much better this week. Thank you, antibiotics!
• 2 Days of Home Rehab. Treadmill, Recumbent Bike, and floor strengthening exercises.
• 1 Day of PT. Elliptical, treadmill, and many foam roll exercises.
• I saw Larry on Tuesday. My ribs were a mess, but were finally behaving once Larry worked on me…Sometimes I think my ribs really hate me : )

Happy August, friends! I have to admit, my reaction to August is always mixed; I know there is still more fun and relaxation to be had, but I also know that life will soon go back to the “fast” pace that is often hard for me as a zebra at the end of the month…Sooooo, I am working hard on living in the moment, and not projecting.  Easier said than done, but I am trying!

For the foundation, Gympalooza is coming up on August 23rd! You can check out the FREE event here:

Anyways,

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT. The usual drill. Lots of cardio and strengthening and I ended with cranial OMM.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• Had my six month cleaning at the dentist. Still no cavities at 32. Trying to keep the streak going!

1. Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab: Recumbent Bike, and floor strengthening.
• Zero doctors and zero physical therapy (my therapist is away right now).
• I am officially scheduled to see Dr. Lavallee in July! It will be my first time seeing him since he moved from South Bend to York, PA. The road trip will be a lot but I am confident it will be worth it. That man is one of my heroes.

1. Medical Stuff:

• 1 day of PT.
• 2 Days of Home Rehab.
• Zero doctors. Two weeks in a row. Whoa.
• I ended up taking Wednesday off. This was a down to the minute decision but after paying attention to my body’s “red flags” (more blood pooling, lots of fatigue, some throwing up, wacky heart rates and blood pressure) I decided it was best to give myself a rest and recovery day. I’m always a work in progress when it comes to listening to my body. Trying to get better…
