Week 6 - getting back on the track

The freshest of days for a while. I'm again full of energy and hope. My buttocks still hurt and it's been over a week now. I will get on the track again today and reserved a new massage for Wednesday but it got cancelled. Oh no! I'll just have to continue with my hip exercise. Last week was such a disappointing week, I couldn't work out and I was hooked on sugar like a junkie. But I also made really good progress with proofreading, met my brother, spent time with the best husband ever, cooked, baked and oh dear the lovely hours I SLEPT. I almost feel reborn. If I don't think about my buttocks or my body which is in desperate need of exercise, 'cause there is so much energy bursting under my skin. Now I sound like a freak. Little creatures under my skin trying to get out for some sports. Yup.

Yesterday I started the conquer of sugar again. I had some cool pains on Sunday for eating 4 pieces of apple pie, some cookie dough and cookies, liquorice, apple jam... So really this needs to stop! I'm repeating myself and it's not cool. Sugar doesn't even taste that good if you eat it too much. So far so good, only a little jam with yogurt. How are you guys coping with this kind of stuff? I know people that don't even like sweets that much but they may have problems with salty goodies. Anyone in need of a support person? I've had this phrase in my head for a week now: "how to avoid high blood pressure in early years". It's a good question.

Let's have a look at the schedule again, some workouts may change, if my buttocks or lower back feel worse.

Yes, it hurts

My massage reservation got cancelled. I'm starting to feel desperate 'cause the pain has continued over a week now. I've done hip exercise and had days off from workout. So I went to BODYPUMP yesterday and did squats with minimum weights. It was great, I felt so good to workout again. But today my pains continue. Well another advice I found only today was to keep something cold on the painful spots 3-5 times a day, especially after exercise. I found that out by finally considering that there might be an inflammation somewhere near my buttocks and hips. I've now asked for advice from our occupational health care so lets see what they say.

I was so moved today when I talked with mom on our coffee break and she said she enjoyed the game on Saturday so much she wished it could be on TV. Then she considered again and said that actually it is way more fun to watch the bout live. "Your sport should be a huge thing already! What a game!" I was so moved by her interest I got wet eyes of happiness.

Mom!
