Looks like no one else is on here right now. So, I will be over at the diamonds in the rough check in. And, I would love for you to join us!!!

I will do my PT exercises, 10 minutes of cardio, and 10 minutes of yoga today.

My jaw feels just fine. But, I my mouth has been watering a little more than usual. And, my glands under my chin are swollen. Weird: my ankles are swollen (had too much sodium) but I'm down a couple of pounds.

Me neither, I can't get MSG at all. That is an instant headache. Yeah, I can't wear my glasses while working out, but I do use solar spectrum bulbs in my workout room. My glasses are too weird and orange to be seen in! I didn't know that yeast extract and caramel color were MSG, oh my goodness...

I did 10 minutes of cardio with Petra Kolber called Dance off Belly Fat, its one of the 10 min. Solution discs. For me, thats a big deal. I haven't done a DVD workout since before my surgery!!! Then, I did 15 minutes of foam rolling and 25 minutes of PT exercises. I have to put a 10 lb weight on...

I use Spark People. Its a free website. Their app doesn't work as well as the website version. They have a meal tracker and workout tracker as well as a community of forums (similar to this one.) for a lot of different kinds of issues, everything from weight loss to special diets. Its awesome...

I am feeling better today. The local anesthetic worked really well. I like the new dentist. I got my room cleaned up. Thats always the first thing that must be done before a workout of any kind. TCB309: OMG! I didn't fluorescents could give a person a migraine. I use a pair of orange glasses...

I had a chiropractic appointment on Thursday, an acupuncture appointment Friday morning, and then had two fillings put in and two crowns yesterday. I feel really beat up. But, at least I'm not in a lot of pain. I'm sore in my jaw, my arm is still bothering me (I guess the chiropractic didn't fix...

Welcome to everyone! This is a check in for anyone with health issues that impact the workouts that they can do. We are diamonds in the rough because we have all been through hard things but we are still shining!!!

I will put our thread under 'Diamonds in the Rough' in the check-in's forum. Thanks. I hope to see all of you there. RapidBreath

I worked on cleaning my room yesterday. I have to do that before I can do anything else. My PT has me doing special exercises to loosen up and relax my pelvis. They aren't hard to do, I just have found myself to be so tired that I don't end up doing them. Thats totally silly. But, it's the truth.

What do you think we should call our new check in? How about 'Diamonds in the Rough', because we have all been through tough things but we are still shining?

Thats great Colleen! I'm so glad that something is helping you feel better.

I have a great chiropractor that treats my odd nerve pain stuff with foam rolling. But, do not try it without getting some imaging done first!!! I mean it! You could hurt yourself, permanently. I do like to use a tens machine (put the leads on the ends of the muscle that covers the area, and...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Cathe!!!!!

Hi Catheletes, I need a new beginner's check in for January. I'm starting at the real beginning, I'm coming back from injury and surgery. My old check in, The Joggler's, has dwindled down to just myself. Thats a little lonely. I have to start slow, I'm on low impact and just three days a week...

My pelvic pain is a bit better, I went to acupuncture today. It really helps with the nerve pain. I'm looking at my diet again, just in case its something that I eat. I had to go to the ER on Thursday, my face swelled up and turned red. It was some sort of allergic reaction, but its not clear...

My kitty was ok. I'm still dealing with some pelvic pain, apparently I have nerve pain. Ugh. Anywho, so, my doctor has me get acupuncture and do PT exercises.

I had to take the kitty to the vet today. She had several teeth removed. Poor kitty.

I went to Oakland for a day. It was ok. I attended a seminar about accessibility. You might find it interesting, but accessibility for the disabled on gym equipment is already part of the ADA.
