I have been dealing with a lot of stress recently. Do you remember our friend with cancer? He has been struggling with some kidney issues related to the original cancer problem and with some side effects from the cancer treatment. It seems like the cancer did a lot of damage to his kidneys. The treatments worked but it's the damage from the cancer that's the problem. Also, the radiation treatments has caused more damage. Anyways, right now he is in the hospital. Last night he mentioned that he is ready to sign a release to get out of the hospital so he can go home to die.
Good news from the Vet. Cody did great! I am not so much! Or I wasn't until the call from the Vet. I had a very bad morning, food wise. I totally fell off the wagon, got run over by the wagon and then was backed back over by it again. This morning I felt like I was reliving a lot of stuff that I went through in the past. It's funny how you can think you are doing better and then wham you can have a set back. It can happen so quickly and easily. I do appreciate being able to post my thoughts and stresses here. It does truly help. I mentioned to my DH, about the struggles I had with eating this morning. It seemed like he didn't "get it". He is a larger man and has major health issues, but he doesn't have food issues like me. Oh well, we are all different. Today I fell. I will pick myself back up, brush myself off, and move forward. I have not had a full on binge in a long time. Ugh! I cannot believe I did that. Moving forward though. That's all I can do. I cannot undo anything.
Diana- I'm so sorry to hear about Danny. Life can be so cruel sometimes and it's so hard to understand why some things are happening.
That's great news on the vet. With my dogs the vet does the exam in a different room than me cause they seem to be jumpy around me. Hang in there on the food front. It happens and you're moving on. You've made so much progress and you're allowed a bump in the road.
Laura- I hear you on being sore. My legs hurt so much from the strength class yesterday. I think it was all the squats. I'm having trouble walking today.
It's freezing here and I'm so tired from subbing. I'm home now snuggling in the blankets with the dogs, watching TV.
I didn't do a workout today. While Cody was at the Vet I finished up with my office stuff, cleaned the office and bathrooms. We had to close early to go pick him up. He seems to be doing very well and I am so glad to have him back home tonight.
My DH had a heart to heart with Danny tonight. His attitude was improved and I think he is reconsidering things. We'll see how it goes.

I am going to do whatever workouts I want for the rest of this week. Saturday I am going to start the Get Your Body Back program. If I don't like it, I can always go back to Start Here. I still enjoy the Start Here workouts, so I can always fall back on those. DH mentioned last week that he can tell my legs have more muscles and are firmer. I suppose this is from Start Here since I have been doing that for a while.
Last night I added on: Restorative Poses for Relaxation from Yoga for Stress Relief
OMG! I just let Cody outside. He's got that big cone around his head and he is running laps around the yard like a maniac. DH was worried that getting neutered would have a negative effect on his energy. Oh boy! I think we are in trouble.

Teacher Cody was wired all day! He's not suppose to be doing all that he's doing. Hopefully he won't rupture anything. I am doing my best with him. He's a hot mess, too. I hope you start feeling better quickly.

Laura Actually Danny is doing OK for now. I mentioned that my DH had a heart to heart with him. He was needing to get kidney bags and didn't want them. He was willing to sign a release at the hospital and go home and die because he didn't want them. DH convinced him to get them and to live. He did get the bags, yesterday. He will have anther CT scan next week for cancer to see if the cancer has returned. The last scan showed some very small spots but they chose not to do anything. I know he still has a long road and might not make it. But at least he's still trying.
