I hope you don't mind that I made this thread for the month. I don't have time to start threads on Monday's so I figured I'd just get this one out there for the whole month. I think it's easier.

Hello everyone! Today I did Cardio Coach #3 and had a great workout. I have a headache today and I think I'm going to make an appointment to see if I have a sinus infection. I'm dizzy again and my head feels like it's going to explode. So I'll be going in to see her hopefully sometime this week. I'm real tired of these headaches.

Hey guys,:)

Going to make this really quick at work much to do:rolleyes:

Long time, I know right he…he… I’m going to make this short and sweet. The reasons I haven’t been around was this. On July 17. 2013 I was in a bad accident with my bike, yeah! Broken back, broken left foot and 2 broken toes. Right foot 1 broken toe I know…both knees badly damaged and on the right side badly damaged, first I thought my kidney was damaged. I just came back to work last week; full week and it just bout killed me sitting here. My boss is buying me a new chair needed it anyways. Oh…my bike was total.

This happened on Lee Road I was just crossing Shaker,:eek: I decided to take a quick ride after work hot day just finished washing my hair told my puppy Tank, I’ll be right back………..right back was 2.5 days later I was in Hillcrest Hospital. Too, had Physical Therapy for 8 weeks.

My foot is still swollen can’t wear high heel shoes like I do, arrrrrrrgh, been wearing flats (hate it) lol. So that’s what your girl been dealing with. Now…….I’m ready to eases back into shape. I’ll see you guys tomorrow:)

Today I did Pyramid upper body skipping the abs with the stability ball. The knee ins and pikes on that are stressful on the knee. I added Cathe's Lean Legs and abs, abs and stretch portions only. Total time was 65 minutes and calories burned 359. I am trying to reach the doctors office to set up the surgery. I will be out of town the next 4 days so it will be a lot of rest days. My whole leg is swollen now so I am not feeling like doing a lot anyway.

Debbie, I hope the doctor can help you with that. I am sorry to hear hat you are still having the dizziness.

Teddy, that sounds like a terrible accident. You are lucky to be alive. Glad to have you back and I hope the discomfort is not too bad.
 
So sorry to hear about your accident, Teddy

Diane Sue, so sorry about you leg and I know surgery scares you but sounds necessary.

Today I did Intensity.
 
This morning I did Legs & Glutes standing premix. Had a great workout. I have a doctor's appointment today at 9:30 so I was able to sleep in and workout a little later. What a huge difference that one hour makes. Working out at 5:30 is so much harder to do than doing it at 6:30. It's only an hour so I don't get it. But I couldn't wait to workout this morning and I haven't felt that way since summer.

Oh well...

Hope you all have a great workout and a great day!

Teddygirl - Wow! Was that on your scooter? I'm so sorry to hear you are going through all of that! OMG!!! I'm so glad it wasn't worse than that, but it still sounds like you have a long haul before you are back to 100%. Can you workout yet? Probably not. Be careful and go easy. I can't even imagine what that was like! {{{{hugs}}}
 
Morning Guys,

This morning, I did Candace......good workout!! My foot is sore it’s still swollen, dang. But, need to let Ms. Foot know who's the boss:mad::p;):cool: My back is feeling good. The only workout I feel I cannot and will not do is Step Aerobics; as I continue to recover. I know I will have to modify some workouts, but, I won't know unless I get into it, right?

Thank you, guys for all your warm words and concerns. But, I'm doing so much better. Glad to be home:)


Debbie: Good workout. Yes..... I was on my scooter no helmet and I had on my flip flops, this was only suppose to be a 10/15 minute ride, I just wanted to feel the breeze; it was so hot that day:rolleyes: And OMG.......that's all I can say. But know this, God is good. Some would think this is crazy what I am about to say, but here it goes..... I want another Scooter. I love riding.
 
No workout today. I am at my daughters. I did bring some tubing and a couple of workouts with me and my grandson has some dumbbells in his room :) I got up really early to head down here. Iced my knee on the way. I will be back at home Friday. They are supposed to be scheduling me for surgery on my knee on Monday the 11th. They have not called back with the particulars yet though.

Teddy, don't push too hard at first. I know that you are anxious to get back into things again. I am glad that you are recovering though.

Debbie, I am glad that you were feeling so much better today:)
 
No workout for me today. I went to my doctor yesterday to find that my blood pressure is up. She put me on blood pressure meds and I have to have an echo on my heart done sometime this week. I'm not sure if you all remember, but about 8 years ago they found that I have aeortic bicuspid disorder. This means that two of my aeortic valves are fused together so instead of having three, I only have two. They've been keeping an eye on it since it was found but it's been a couple years since I've had an echo. With all the dizzy spells I've been having, she wants me to go get it checked.

I was ok'd to workout, but when I got up this morning I had another horrible headache and was really off balance. I took my first blood pressure pill and I already feel a bit more stable. So we'll see.

Say a prayer for me. If my aeortic valve is leaking anymore than it was last time they checked it, I'll have to see a cardiologist. I really don't want to do that...

Have a great day everyone!
 
Hey Guys:)

Hey Guys

Quick check-in. No workout this morning; and I was up at 4:30. I need to head to GNC on my lunch today to pick up a few things so I can have energy in the mornings. Have a great day all.

Debbie: Praying all goes well. Glad the pill brought your pressure down.

Diane: Sorry to hear you needing surgery, dang. Well, it’s better now to have than not too. I rub an ointment on both my knees at night.

Thanks for all your kind words, everyone. I'll be alright. I just need to see what's going on.

No workout today, again I didn't feel like myself this morning. Had another headache and just didn't want to chance it. I'll probably just rest until Monday. Hopefully by then I'll be back to normal.

Teddygirl - Flip flops? Really? OMG girl. I have a friend who rides her Ninja 250 with flip flops and I yell at her every time I see her. If you get another scotter, you better follow the safe rules, girl!!! I know what you mean, I love riding too! Glad you are ok, though!

Diane Sue - So sorry to hear you have to have knee surgery. Keep us posted and I'll say a prayer for you for a quick recovery!
 
Debbie, praying all goes well for you.

Diane Sue, prayers to you also as you await surgery that all goes well too.

Yesterday I did chest, back and shoulders today was Kickbox Burn.
 
Yesterday I did Turbo Fire Upper 20, Core 20 with modifications, and stretch 10. Today I am doing nothing. Just icing and using heat on my leg. I think I will leave the leg alone including stretching it till after surgery when they do PT. I may do some upper weights Saturday when I am home. My neck woke me last night hurting along with my leg and I got quite a headache going. So, I put the icepack on my neck and went back to bed. I almost took Advil but had second thoughts on that since the surgery is Monday. I am waiting for the anesthesiologist to call. I did pre op stuff over the phone yesterday.

Teddy, P90X plyometrics is some workout to be starting out with.

Debbie, I am so sorry that you are having those problems. The blood pressure issue would make sense with the headaches and dizziness. I will keep you in my prayers. How is your mother's eye sight? Is it improving? Thanks for sending prayers my way.

Roselyn, thanks, I know the surgery is necessary. I pondered it for bit really but after the time I have worked with it I think I have done all I can do on my own. There are so many workouts with similar titles, which one is Kickbox Burn ? Is that the name of Cathe's new one?
 
So I'm feeling much better today but still no workouts. I was going to get up and run on my treadmill but decided against it. Today is the Echo on my heart so if you all would please say a prayer for me that all is the same as before, I would really appreciate it! I hope I find out the results soon.

Thanks everyone! Have a great day and a great workout!

Diane Sue - My mom's eyes are improving VERY SLOWLY, but they are improving. She can read the newspaper now with a magnifying glass. She couldn't do that before. So it is slightly getting better. They did say it could take up to a year for her to get the full benefits of this eye surgery. Thanks for asking!
 
Morning Guys, :D

TGIF.........Workout this morning; started with a 20 minute jog and then GS back shoulders and biceps, man oh man forgot how good this workout is.

Debbie: Prayed. done :)
 
Yesterday I did Kelly Coffey 30 minutes to fitness Split Sessions upper body. That is all. I am trying to get a lot done before the surgery in the morning so wanted something short. It was 37 minutes with w/u and stretch. I want to get in some abs and stretching today sometime.

Debbie, how did the Echo go? I am praying for you.

Terry, you are really going after it with the workouts ;)

Roselyn, thanks :) Maybe soon I will be able to do things like Butts and Guts again.
 
Hi everyone! No workout today because I have to be at work by 7. :eek:

So the Echo Friday went well. The lady who did the echo said she didn't understand why I was told I had Aortic Bicuspid Disorder. She said she saw three very distinct aortic valves. She said one was shaped like a football but even that is somewhat normal. She said there was a bit of back flow with one of the valves but nothing that she could see would be cause for alarm.

The cardiologist will read the test today and I have a follow-up with my doctor on the 25th. So I'm relieve to hear that I may have had a misdiagnosis all this time. WTH?

The dizzy spells are gone and my headaches are minimal. I felt really good yesterday and so far today, really good. So I'll be back to working out tomorrow.

Have a great day everyone! Thanks for the prayers everyone!
