@ninerbuff Sorry things are changing with your Mom. Just be glad that you have had her in better health for so long.
As usual I'm catching up, been a crazy week!
Wednesday cardio: 20 something miles on the bike, windy and tough
Thursday strength: Upper body and core work, and a little shoulders YAYOG and some variations
Friday cardio: 6.9 on the elliptical - had a strange heart rate ramp up some 20 minutes in and had to limit pace, still trying to figure it out
Assessment: Doing good overall, think I might be pushing my fueling with paces and carb loading at times. Hearty steak tacos, cheesecake, and ice cream kept me on point for yesterday. I like having those extra calories to eat after cardio!
Likely a real rest day today. Have a great weekend everyone!0 -
Hey gang,
I like myself unconditionally!
Happy weekend! Yay a whole weekend off! Later getting together with my DD's friends and their parents for the Annual Easter Egg hunt that's held at one of her friends ranch. We've done this for over 5 years now and it's so great for all the kids. Parents get to kick it and play Bocce ball and horse shoes.
Everything went okay with my mom. It looks like the medication that that she had to take for the pain may have caused her to have temporary hallucinations because yesterday when I conversed with her she seemed fine. We'll just have to monitor the situation. She was able to get up and go to church and wasn't rambling weird words like my brother was saying she was doing the day before. So hopefully it was just a minor issue.
Cardio: biking- 30 minutes (150 calories)
Strength: NONE
Assessment: Sushi last night.0 -
