It was a very intense/fulfilling weekend- nice break from all the medical stuff going on - , driving our daughter up to UF to Gainsville setting her up in the dorm, my mother arriving to stay with us to help out during my operation , the beautiful 'Off to College' party that our dear friends Ng and Mh gave to our daughter and our nephew.
And the wonderful speech that Mh gave about their future and college.
Life is going on faster than ever and I am starting to feel very strong physically and mentally, which I think is awesome and weird at the same time ! I feel like I have already beaten the BC crap !
I will be entering my physical workouts/activities in this blog because they are very important part of my wellbeing as a whole. Plan is to have 1 workout per day 40-60 minutes, alternating Yoga and cardio. Adding on 1 weight session and 1 30'ish mile bike ride.
Thursday:
3 mile run on the dreadmill, very slow pace walking 1 min/mile,run 5.5
mph. Heart rate crept up a bit to 170 but recovered nicely, I am thinking that I might have actually found the reason of my high heart rate is high during workouts-we'll see if the iron-infusion that I will be getting on Tuesday will have a favorable impact.
Friday:
1 hour Body Flow at Lifestyle fitness. The first time I tried this class at this facility, I am NOT impressed and I miss college park yoga(I guess I am spoiled). It is supposed to be a combination of Yoga, Tai-chi but the most important mental aspects were missing.
Saturday:
30 mile very slow ride at aerobic pace, rode from home to the airport and back.
Sunday :
1 hour yoga from Beryl Bender Birch'- Power Yoga DVD.. ahh this is much better.
Tomorrow is the Plastic Surgeon appointment, MRI and pelvic ultrasound.
I finally made up my mind about the oncologist Dr. Rebecca Moroose seems to be it the feedback I am getting about her is that she has dedicated her life to the fight with BC and is very up to date regarding the researches done on this subject.
Dr. Danelle Chambers is awesome for surgery, I do not even need to consult another surgeon, I am very comfortable with her.
