So I go to the gym today, and find out that what I did Monday was not a workout, no sirree bob! That was an EVALUATION. Today was the workout. I’m kind of sore all over, but pleased to discover I can do five minutes on a treadmill without passing out.
By the way, after only three sessions with the new myofascial release therapist, I have no pain at all in my right leg or ankle for the first time in three years. It will probably recur as I get more active, but still. Nice!
I do appreciate y’all giving me moral support, so keep it coming.
No pain, no gain. Eating a proper diet usually turns out to be the most painful aspect of all life change. Somerset Maugham does caution however that, “Excess on occasion is exhilirating. It prevents moderation from deadening the effect of a habit.”
Sounds good, so keep it up Susie. It’s good to hear.
This is terrific. I would be interested to hear more about the “myofascial release”.

Stretching helps. So does aspirin. You’ll get used to it, eventually.
Two words; whirl pool. No whirlpool . . . heating pad and/or tiger balm.
Sore is acceptable, pain not so much.
