Road to recovery

I have been sure to stay in bed until at least 7am every day for the past week.  Other than an awful night of sleep on Thursday night due to a racing mind, my exhaustion and dizziness seem to be improving lately.  I have also been having a glass of lemon water to start the day.

It's been 6 weeks since I did any lifting and I was starting to miss it, so I did some weights today.  I have lost a lot of strength in that time and lifting felt different than it ever has.  I'm going to try to go back to a 2x/week schedule, but in the afternoons so I am not getting up early or staying up late.  I'm hoping that with this I can continue to lose a bit of weight while continue to support my body in its healing mission.

The good news, I'm definitely feeling better!  So I will continue to stay in bed, it appears that is making all the difference even though I'm still waking at about 6:30.
