Hi Everyone!
Last night seemed to prove quite interesting and solidified the fact that I can't be left alone during this recovery process! ;)
Julia had to go to work for just an hour last night and in that time I decided to take my FIRST drive back to Focus Physical Therapy and stretch out in Pilates class!
Yes, I know what you all must be thinking ("is this girl nuts?!"), but the drive was fantastic. While I took it VERY slow, nothing hurt or felt uncomfortable. However, I did feel slightly shaky at the wheel, so I think I will be sticking with neighborhood driving as of now... no highways or long distances yet!
Pilates class proved to be interesting. I could barely do any of the moves, except hold table top and do some roll-ups. But it honestly felt good to stretch everything out! The second I got home I was SO SORE in my pelvic area, hamstrings, hip flexors and quads that I could have died. However, I iced and when I woke up this morning, I was fine!! :) But don't worry... no Pilates for another 2 weeks or so.
I'm getting pretty excited for Thursday when I see Dr. Coleman for the first time to get my stitches out. I hope he gives me good news about my recovery process. Prayers would be greatly appreciated for that!
Today will be a very fun Tuesday. Jackie is coming over to study for a few hours, then I get to see Amber for lunch and pedicures and then my afternoon will be back on the bike with some arm work. Tonight I get to relax, which is always very nice.
I don't have very many updates today. I am getting antsy to get back to some decent cardio exercise, but I know I have to take a deep breath and keep moving slowly.
Peace out,
A
