The first day of cardio...and I'm not allowed to do cardio!
After a successful day 1 in the weight room I found myself right back again on Tuesday. Only this time I didn't really have anything to do! I couldn't do any leg work on the machines due to my recently surgically repaired knee. I couldn't run. I couldn't do anything!
My first official rehab appointment with the physical therapist was the next day, so right now all I had was a list of a few stretches and very basic leg exercises. But I had to do something.
Surprisingly with stretches, some sit ups, a few leg exercises from the sheet and my first time riding the exercise bike I actually ended up spending over an hour in the gym. It felt really good to get my legs going.
From a food perspective this was a bad day. Headache central! All day long my head was hurting. I was starving!
Somehow I survived to the end of the day. Made it past the first 2 days, rehab tomorrow, let's do this!
