First Sun Salutation attempts and bike ride

Last night the binge wagon hit again, it seems like the body is trying to compensate for the lack of food intake on the 7th day of chemo when the nausea lightens up a bit. This time the damage was hostess cupcakes (7 of them) and a couple of caramel candies.

Greeted the morning by doing a couple of sun salutations.. to my delight the chest muscles are even allowing me to plank for a couple of seconds woohooo !!! I heard that expansion weakens the pectorals, might take that into considering while inflating the boobs.

Later went on a bike ride with Zeren who turned out to be a 'natural cyclist' she was hauling .ss with excellent bike handling skills even though it was her first time on a bike since several years. Unfortunately my heart rate monitor was dictating my pace and I had to slow her down. The pix is a bit crooked but we- the biker chicks look darn good ! :



Duration: 33 minutes
about 5-6 miles forgot to reset the bike computer
Average Heart Rate: 127 - definitely higher than it was before.
Max Heart rate: 150

It was my first time on my bike since the surgery.. and it felt really good.
