I slept in until about 10 on saturday (cause I woke up at 3 am and was not able to go back to sleep until 5) and just dragged around the house until 2, then we headed up to do some shopping with my mom and then Sibel joined us at the mall. At night Fred took me to a cool new restaurant that opened in Hunters Creek Fusion 7
Got myself a custom t-shirt at the mall to wear to my plastic surgeon and chemo sessions.
I got a bit of a funny look from the guy at the custom t-shirt stand as I explained to them what was supposed to be written on the t-shirt. ;o)
Honestly due to my obsessive character I really was not looking forward to doing 'light' activity I was more inclined to go for a 40 mile bike ride or hit an intense spin class session. I am craving for the post-intense workout feeling where I felt deliciously exhausted.
Ended up doing 30 minutes at Level 1 on the recumberent bike reading a book, first it actually felt hard then my body seemed to remember what it was supposed to do and I was ok. Kept the heart rate <130 barely broke a sweat which is ok I know I need to take it easy and just keep the wheels turning for a while.
I certainly felt refreshed/recharged when we left the gym. I will try to do light cardio everyday.
Later went to a brunch to Pinars house for her daughter Naz's birthday it was a really relaxing nice day with friends with a bit too much food. I have gained about 8 pounds since my diagnosis which I really am not happy about.
Then watched 3+ more episodes of Lost Season 3 we are trying to catchup before the new season starts.
