6/17 - starting here: eating more protein, taking my vitamins every day, exercising 3 days a week, trying to balance my sleep better so I'm not sleeping 12 hours every night

✅ use of massage bed

I had my compression stockings on and I still had to sit down about five times during tai chi, so this is definitely me starting at pretty much zero

2024-06-17T15:01:12.000Z
the massage bed was nice - I just upgraded my gym membership so that I have access - but it does mean I'd better hit the powerade now

❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-17T15:59:49.000Z
this time I'm going to use this plurk until the end of the month, then make a new one
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-17T16:07:37.000Z
when I got home from the gym I actually felt like I might need to lie down again, which would be ridiculous since I slept 11 hours, but sipping my powerade and resting has made that go away
Temple
2024-06-17T16:07:45.000Z
that is a much better strat, i agree
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-17T16:07:54.000Z
it's very hot out, though, so I think that contributed to how I felt when I got in

I decided since I was craving protein at breakfast time it would be a good idea to make a chicken breast for lunch
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-17T16:42:12.000Z
I simply do not eat enough meat unless I make myself
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-17T16:42:33.000Z
so i made kimchi fried rice with a diced chicken thigh
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-18T03:51:50.000Z
I had chicken nuggets and fries for dinner
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-18T03:52:08.000Z
it's just one day but I do feel a lot better for having so much protein in one day
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-18T03:52:54.000Z
this is a lot of protein for me, I usually don't have any meat until dinner and even then it's usually something that is meat-light, like stir-fry
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-18T03:53:18.000Z
but this is the first day in 10 days I didn't fall asleep around 7 or 8
❝ D a t a ❞

6/18 - I slept 6 hours last night, had my eggs, feeling much better than I have for weeks
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-18T12:47:03.000Z
I can't even believe the whole lightheadedness problem has been protein and not my circulation
❝ D a t a ❞
2024-06-18T14:13:57.000Z
it's a little early to know for sure but I also think the lack of protein has been responsible for a lot of my cognition trouble in the past 2 years?

talking with crossthesky in her plurk about concerts, and my history of fibro, and I really am starting to think my mid-term goal here is to be able to handle our plans to see Hadestown in Akron in February without it completely wrecking me

I told the trainer at the gym my short-term goal is to get it so I'm not suffering chronic back and shoulder pain, and my long-term (one year) goal is to build all-over strength and get to where I can handle a short hike

but my history with shows is I went and saw PMJ in Toledo in 2017, and again i Cleveland in 2021, and both times it put me in bed for about a week
