I feel pretty wrecked this morning. It was a long, busy day yesterday. I got some OK sleep, but I think I feel exhaustion from yesterday. Right now I feel like this day could go either way, unfortunately. Following my supplement routine to hopefully save this day. I think it’s just tiredness/exhaustion, which is fine.
Slow start to the day. I feel worn out. One decent day where I took advantage of it, and I’m wiped out! Just did a short walk. Slow and steady without using the cane. It was pretty difficult though. It was a fight to not use the cane. Hot outside too, so that drains my energy.
Short walk around 3. Slow and steady again, and it was a fight to not use the cane. I’m feeling the extra weight I’m carrying, lack of conditioning, the heat, the tiredness. But pain and fibromyalgia aren’t the limiting factors today. Pain is certainly contributing, but it’s not the main thing. I’ll always take that any time. I can work with that.
Another short walk before dinner. This one felt the best all day. I didn’t use the cane once. I got stronger and faster as I went. I had that thought about turning into a medium walk, but I held back. Not yet. I don’t want to hurt myself by doing too much too soon. Once I get through a day without the cane, then I’ll think about it. This little bit of wiggle room has been nice. As soon as I get it, I’m out putting in the work. Pretty much immediately. Now I just have to figure out how to keep the streak going, and I still need to treat the pain. Even though I get a lot of activity in on these days, they still hurt like hell and are very difficult. It still feels like I have broken glass in my spine that grinds away with every step.
