More update, just because I can
After 2 weeks of daily muscle workouts I'm finally stronger than my sister for the first time in forever.
I noticed that yesterday when helping her move her greenhouse with no equipment other than pure strength. (About 100 ft) Took 2h but we got the job done 💪
The right side of my body from my hip down is crazy sore today, but in a good way.
Couple of days ago I went for a walk, also for the first time in years, and my back didn't hurt as much as usual from walking. Got about 3km (approx 1,8 miles) covered with only a few brief stops to catch my breath.
I'm pretty sure I have very mild astma, but not enough to bother talking to my doc about it. He'll just tell me to exercise more, which I'm already doing.
In spite of gaining muscles I've lost 3kg in 2 weeks (approx 7 lbs I think) but that's a bonus.
I allow myself some treats now and then, but thanks to my focus on getting healthier I automatically don't crave it as much/often as before.
Tomorrow I'll have been sober 3 weeks. There have been times I've missed drinking, but the antabus is enough to keep me from caving.
Pantera is also doing great and very happy whenever we go outside to enjoy the sun and flowers together 💜
