Hi you all,
I'm needing a bit of a pep talk or some sort of boost in motivation. About 4 or 5 weeks ago I came down with the flu and was sick and not exercising for about 3 weeks. It was a bad one with a temperature for about 6 days of over 100, and then congestion in my head and lungs for another 2 weeks. I've been trying for about 2 weeks to get back in the swing of things and it's going poorly. I try and do a cardio workout and weight every other day. Light weight using either a Firm tape or Karen Voight. My cardio is what seems to be the hardest for me. I can only make it for about 40 or 45 min. and then my energy and motivation just runs out. And I have to do it on a 4 inch step. I think it is more of a motivation thing then energy. I know I use to push myself allot more but I am having trouble doing it. Have any of you struggled with getting back after an illness and can give me a few words of encouragement? Thanks for your help. Lora
