Thanks to (a bunch of crap nobody cares about) I have been in PT using arm bikes, lifting weights and working with resistance bands for several months. After all this time I am practically unrecognizable.
Get a load of them guns!
And you thought she was kidding about that stick figure.
The sad part? I look much better now than when I started.

Looking for ways to stay warm? Consider this handmade bear Paw Quilt!
This rustic Bear Paw Quilt would fit in nicely at a cabin by the lake or thrown over your couch at home. The pattern is geometric, and the colors are bold yet earthy. The overall effect of the quilt is of paw prints in snow. On sunny days, the colors look so inviting it is hard not to lie down on them and take a nap.
Handmade Bear Paw Quilt and other fine gifts are available from my shop at L Bowman Studios.

HOPING IT IS HELPING YOU THAT I ALL THAT MATTERS
HUGSS
Yes, I am really happy with the changes. I just wish I looked a little better for all my efforts!
That sounds like a lot of work. Health issues are so miserable. I am glad you are happy with the results of your efforts.
I hope you are feeling better! Hugs!
This will be something I do every day for the rest of my life. What worries me is if I get injured or sick. I’m not sure what will happen if miss workouts. ☹️
You should ask so you know what happens.
I’m pretty sure the answer is that I hurt until I can start working again. In the meantime I am trying to build some bulk (quit laughing!) to help during potential bad times.
Nox is very sweet and wouldn’t laugh at you.
Nox is nicer than I am. I laugh at me! 😂
I laugh at myself as well.
I, too, am being tortured with physical therapy bi-weekly but mine is so far mostly leg oriented, although I do have to do a funny little thing with a shake weight. (The therapists are all far too young to remember those commercials but I amuse myself) I don’t care how much I have to do as long as it helps. And darlin, you look mahvelous!
Legs are next for me – as soon as the weather gets nice – so we can come here to commiserate.
Have you seen the episode of South Park about Shake Weights? 😂
I probably have seen it but now I’m gonna look it up! My diagnosis is degenerative disc disease – it appears that my upper and lower back muscles aren’t strong enough to support my messed up spine so it’s leg strength and lower back now, then I guess we’ll work on the upper back. I expect months of this but hopefully it will help. I also just bought The Pain Management Workbook and I’m going through that
I didn’t know about that book. I might have to look it up.
I hope the PT helps! ❤️🩹

I haven’t gotten far but it had great reviews so I decided to give it a shot
Not an easy thing to do…but way to go! I’m so proud of you! Gaining strength and feeling better and much more! Hang in there! You got this! 🙂
