A Journey From The Cane

Using the WII as the primary therapy tool to recover from a head injury that occurred 6 years ago. I Have exhausted every other way, doctors, therapists and non-traditional methods. My condition kept getting worse until I was handicapped.

Day 166 - Not Good

Posted by kennycm in Untagged

Hi,

Day is not good today so canceled the exercise this morning.  Not much sleep last night and very dizzy this morning.  My weight did go down quite a bit and I think it's due to the fact I did not eat a lot yesterday since I was so dizzy.  Very short blog.

Day 165 - What! No snow?

Posted by kennycm in Untagged

Good morning all,

Woke up to clear skies and no new snow, weird.  The wife has a vampire appt. this morning so I have a short exercise program and will try to get a bit more in this afternoon.  Had a good food day yesterday until the pizza hit the pan, then I overindulged and the sin was exposed as I stepped on the board this morning.  I think the salt content is as much the culprit as the calorie content.  I really want to get down to 180 lbs before April as I will be officiating at my grand daughters wedding and want to fit in my old gear.   Very special getting to marry a grand daughter.

Mornin all,

Wow! what a night! wind blew the snow and ice so hard against the windows I thought they would break, had a real cuddly cat anyways.  Don't know what time I finally got to sleep but it was late, surprisingly woke up feeling pretty good and got right on the Wii board for a good workout, then went out and shoveled out the car and the patio for a few extra calories burned.

Day - 163 - Again?

Good morning,

According to the Wii (which is a machine and therefore incapable of error) this is still day 163. :)  OK I'm good with that.  Got up this morning to nice fluffy snow drifts that required the application of an idiot stick to remove from the general location of my transportation, so I got a bit of extra activity.  Came back in and decided I would do the Wii and did.  A bit of a struggle but I did it and feel better for it.

Day 163 - I did it!

Hi!

I got back on the board, dizzy and all.  Invented some fancy new steps during those exercises that required balancing but I got through them and I'll be darned if I'm going to let a little topsy-turvy world get to me.  I will work something out even if it's exercising only every other day.  I will see how the day goes today and go from there tomorrow.

Day 160 - Sad

Mornin'

Yup I'm sad, I ended the week with a gain of .8 lbs for a weight of 198.4 lbs and a BMI 26.86.  I am also suffering from some prescription drug side affects and re-occurring symptoms of my illness which has prevented me from exercising these past three days.  I am in a search for a new Dr. and hopefully will get this straightened out soon.  In the meantime I am only able to exercise very little as I am very dizzy and unbalanced.

Good Morining,

Snow is slowly drifting out of the sky in a Hallmark moment, really kind of nice.  Got a lot of the house stuff done yesterday and will finish up today.  Will be shopping for a recliner tomorrow when we go to the Dr.  St. Vinnies Boutique in Portage has several and since we can't afford a new one we will go take a look.  My bionic wife is very particular as to what kind of recliner she can tolerate.  Believe it or not most new recliners are not tolerable for her and the few that are are very expensive.  The last one we bought was over $600 on sale at 40% off and it lasted only 3 years.
