It is just one of those days when things are more difficult. It could be chalked up to sleep, I definitely didn’t sleep well last night. Most people would probably blame the weather. I don’t get this one honestly. I find my doctors and therapists blame the weather an awful lot when I have a “bad day”. I get the heat sensitivity one because I live that one but today it is 78 and cloudy. So today it’s blamed on…
Except my morning coffee, I’ve had no issues becoming vegan. I actually like it. It definitely has its challenges though. I was at a graduation party yesterday, of course, I couldn’t eat a thing. I always prepare beforehand when going on these ventures though, so for me it doesn’t become an issue. Yesterday, I ate before I went so I wouldn’t be hungry. At other events, I’ve brought my own food to heat up or brought a vegan veggie burger…
Id love to tell you I came out of yesterday’s round table discussion group enlightened with tons of new information, but I can’t. I unfortunately didn’t learn all that much. This is what I took away that I feel was note worthy. Dr. Krieger’s Leaky Pool analysis of MS. He created an app for an iPad and it’s only for an iPad. If you search for MS topography, you can download the app for free. …
I’m attending a discussion group today for people with multiple sclerosis or care givers of people with multiple sclerosis. It’s a round table discussion group that is lead by two different MS doctors. Many years ago, I was a patient representative for the drug Gilenya. I use to tell my MS story to a group of people either before or after the guest doctor would discuss MS and how the drug worked. I must admit it was a lucrative deal for…
I could have picked many songs today, I’m a huge fan of Linkin Park. I read on songfacts.comhttp://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=26591 Like most of the songs on Living Things, the song’s lyrical content can be interpreted in several ways. Chester Bennington explained to MTV News: “When Mike was talking about the lyrics, at one point he had said, ‘You know, it’s kind of like finding yourself as this broken part of this big machine, and feeling like you’re not part of that, or…
I worked out yesterday for the first time in a month. I was trying to really give my shoulder the time to heal, as recommended by my orthopedic doctor and my physical therapist. I’ve been suffering for almost a year now with tendonitis. My last appointment with the doctor was in early June and I received another cortisone shot. The shots definitely help but can only be given once every 3-4 months and even then is not a great solution….
I found this recipe on the beachbody blog.Every exercise program I do, except Zumba, is from Beachbody. I just did Cize this morning with Shaun T but P90X will always be my favorite. When I saw a vegan sugar cookie recipe I had to post it. Check out Beachbody http://Www.beachbody.com Ingredients Nonstick cooking spray 1 cup almond flour sift after measuring 1 dash sea salt (or Himalayan Salt) 1 dash baking soda 2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup 1 Tbsp. extra virgin…
A little over a year ago, I took a pet safety class that actually certified me for two years in basic pet safety. In the class we learned how to muzzle a dog when they were hurt, basic first aid procedures, how to help a choking dog and even dog CPR. However, the most valuable lesson I learned in that class was what is absolutely poisonous to dogs and how to induce them to throw up if they ingest something…
I finally picked up a book to read. Actually I picked up my kindle but the act is the same. I use to fly through books. I read all the time. Not as a child., more as an adult. It started when my daughter was small watching the same dumb shows or movies on TV, over and over and over and over again. I’d sit with her and read. When I took over my last position at my job, I…
