Thanks for joining me and Kim for the weekly run down. My plan to get back on track post holidays quickly became a no go as I was sick most of the week. It was a rocky week over here and I don’t have much to report. Here’s my very short and very inactive week.
A Rocky Week
You know it’s not good when you don’t see any pics at all!
Sunday-mobility class Peloton
Well, I woke up with a fever and sore throat that came on fast and furious. I really never get any cold or flu like viruses and this one is a doozy. I managed a short Peloton mobility class to keep my streak.
Monday-Peloton stretch
We awoke to 8-9 inches of snow and a higher fever. I literally could barely lift my head up for most of the day. My covid test came back negative. I’m guessing I have some sort of flu virus. Yes, I did get the vaccine.
Tuesday-Peloton foam roll
Oh it was another rocky and rough day over here of mostly lounging around. I still had a fever and now a painful cough as well.
Wednesday- Peloton stretch
My fever is finally gone-yeah. I still feel pretty crappy and have no energy at all. I thought I would maybe try to walk on the tread but just could not muster up the energy. I have never been hit with a virus like this before and I give it zero stars. Do not recommend at all.
Thursday- treadmill walk + core
I woke up feeling a lot better today thankfully. I just needed to move so I hopped onto my tread in my pj’s and walked for 30 min. It’s a start…It really helped and even shaved my legs and dried my hair. Making progress slowly.
Friday- Peloton walk + upper and lower body strength + core
I woke up feeling a lot better even if my Oura doesn’t think so. It was time to get moving so that’s what I did. I walked on tread and then did about 30 min of strength with much lighter weights. Feeling pretty good and even made it out of the house to run some errands.
Saturday-Tread walk + upper and lower body strength
I am finally feeling almost 100% today. It was just time to get back at it and it felt good to run some errands and do some strength work.
I can’t believe how sick I was! While it was definitely not a good week for me, I will be fine. My heart goes out to all those in California.
Oh wow, Deborah, that sounds awful! I hope you continue to feel well and your energy returns completely and quickly!
It was pretty bad but I am almost back to normal
I’m so glad you are feeling better. This is a bad quaddemic, as people are calling it. Flu, Covid, RSV, and Norovirus. Plus all the other assorted viruses. Be kind to yourself as you recover. <3
I am pretty sure it was some sort of flu despite getting the vaccine. I never get sick and it was pretty bad
Wow, so sorry you haven’t been feeling well. glad you seem to be starting to get better. sounds like it really knocked you out!! hope you’re back at it soon!
It was a rough one for sure
Oh no. Sorry to hear you were so sick.
Glad you are feeling better. Take it slow and I bet you’ll be back to your old active self in no time.
I sure hope so I don’t do stillness well
Sounds like you caught a doozy of a bug. Take plenty of time to rest up and recover fully. Glad you’re starting to feel better!
thanks definitely not my best week
Ugh, so sorry for the icky week, Deborah! I’m glad things turned around in the past couple days. Knock wood, Other than a couple of slight sinus issues, I haven’t really been sick since the last Covid vaccine (and that’s been a few years, LOL). I’m hoping it stays that way. Glad you’re feeling better <3
I never get these types of things either and it was pretty rough
Wow, sounds like you were really laid low. Glad you are feeling better now — maybe today’s sunshine will help even more.
It was rough for sure and I am sad I missed my opportunity to play in the snow
My husband and son also got really sick, right around Christmas. I guess there’s some bird flu going around??? Not sure what every had, but I’m very glad you’re feeling better now!
EVERYONE. Not sure what everyone had…
Ha definitely not bird flu in humans but a rough one nonetheless
Oh yuck! That sounds like an awful week. I’m glad you are feeling better now. Last time I got sick it was COVID, so knocking on wood I don’t get anything this season! There always seems to be something lurking around. Hope you have a much better week!
I sure do too thanks
Ick. I’m glad you’re feeling better. There are so many upper respiratory things and viruses going around- it’s hard to keep track. Take care of yourself!
I am doing a lot better thanks
Our week sounds pretty similar! I am so sorry you were sick but I am glad you took it easy until you felt better. Hope you’re fully on the mend!
oh no sorry to hear that you were sick too
Oh you poor thing, this sounds miserable! I’m so glad you’re on the mend.
