February 6, 2011 - exercise

[gettinghealthy]

Yesterday as I was going to sleep I set a challenge for myself, to do the five minutes on the exercise bike every day Sunday through Saturday regardless of the amount of pain I am in.  When I woke up this morning I was afraid I might miss the first day because even my cane felt too heavy to lift and I wasn't sure I would be able to make it from the bed to the exercise bike.  After a while I was able to put on a little eyeshadow and half dragged myself to the exercise bike and managed to do the five minute ride and the arm exercises so while I am in a lot of pain and even typing hurts, I did manage to do the exercise.  I am hoping that if I can actually make it through the whole week, ignoring the pain and dizziness, maybe that will help set me up for a better next week.
