Last Week
It's about time I posted an update I think!
Have been up to a lot since I last posted. Things with the LP have been going well, it definately works! Thats for sure! It's been hard work at times though (still is a little) and it hasn't been easy letting go of ME and beliving that my body is now normal. But it is and I'm slowly getting there. The more I do and the better I feel the more confidence I get in my body and the more I let go of the past.
I've been up to some really good stuff though and I went to my first Pilates class on Thursday, which was really good! I think I really need some proper exercise. My body needs a lot of strengthening, as was evidenced when I fell flat on my face after a push up! However bear in mind that before I got sick I couldn't manage a push up either and this was not unexpected!
I also went to help out with the local Brownies on Monday, which I'll continue with. It was mum's idea and I think it was a good one, something little and fun to get me out of the house and on the first rung to getting my life back together.
Had a really good day today! My Dad managed to wangle some tickets to the Derby v Sunderland match at Pride Park for this afternoon. It was really good to go the match, though it has to be one of the most abysmall football matches I have ever seen! Derby were absolutely useless and Sunderland weren't a great deal better. But it was so good to be a part of the crowd and to actually watch it live. Seeing football live is a lot different to watching it on the television and I did a lot of shouting!! *glee*
I think perhaps the most remarkable thing about today is that I'm coming down with a cold and still feel good after being out and about for 6 hours. That right there I think is all the evidence I need to know that I'm back to the old me again.
If the cold buggers off I'm hoping I might drag my sister off Ice Skating tomorrow!! :0D!
