You're doing great @BlueGreen. I'm right with you in cutting some carbs and sugars. Haven't gotten cramps though.
I finally went to a nearby local fitness business yesterday and got the lo-down and tour and set myself up to start next week....the only group "exercise" activity I've ever done is lots of yoga....I hope this is a good solid place and that I make working out this way a consistent practice. Sharing it here to hold myself somewhat accountable, Lol

I prefer classes because there's just an energy there that I don't get when I'm trying to do it all at home.
Also, I paid, so I better make the most of it! :P
Have fun!
Sorry I let this fall by the wayside. My depression has really gotten the best of me. But I go to crossfit 4x a week and run 2x a week. It's habit now, which helps. I start with a personal trainer next month, so looking forward to that.
But most of my days have been spent in my office chair, working. I was so sedentary this weekend, by Sunday night my legs were aching. I just want to push through these projects and start moving around again. It's been crippling.

Have slightly better liver levels. Pushing my confidence to continue my medications and drinking more H2O however the sleep test did show i have no longer have sleep apena but it doesnt explain why im tired all of the time.
Will continue to push to eat healthier and drinking at least 20 oz of water daily

I went to the Orangetheory whatever class this morning..not at all impressed..I had located some other clubs yesterday nearby in anticipation of wanting to choose a different business. So after class I went to another place and the owner was there, a class had just released and she spent 1/2 hour with me......I love when synchronicity shows up. So I found my place, all positives there so now I have to just show up and learn and do.....Thursday start

I've been curious about Orangtherapy. Can I ask what it is exactly?
I am a member of a mom and pop "box" (CrossFit gym) and the level of one on one interaction is so nice. I do miss the big franchise gym's spin class, but it's been good to be in a smaller facility.
Have fun, and let us know how it goes!
@A_J_R ..It's a franchised small fitness space that does HIIT and cardio....they have apparently been in business for a few years. IMO it was not a well designed content/hour and not well instructed. It confirmed the poor reviews I read yesterday here in this area.. Also the club I visited afterwards that is independent and the owner is very present there, been in the business for about 30 years and teaches quite a bit....she worked for OrangeTheory for it's first 5 years and said the format structure had changed. I'm glad to have found her and her knowledge base and commitment to her business. I appreciate the one on one connection.

I was just now doing a search for this thread and pulled the one up from last June and posted on it before I realized, Lol.......I've been going to a class daily since last week......I am going to eventually be able to do a pushup, never have been able to do them without knees being on the floor but I believe it will be.....the classes are great, everyday is different and the groups are small.....
I'm still doing CrossFit. My 1st personal training session begins this Friday. And I start with a nutritionist (who is also my trainer) at the same time. Pretty excited about that.
I'll start a July thread as well. Sorry to be so haphazard with this. Emotionally, it's been a very rough month. But the workouts have been the one solid thing I've been able to maintain. Consistency is key, that is true.

Sort of exercises similar to positions such as these, are some of the best that I have found, for my --primary / or primarily L-5 pain & discomfort...
(& so, what I was told by my Dr., was to actually do like up to 10 mins. on each leg~ .)
May help w/S.I. joints, as well? But I guess everybody -& their spines, are- different!
