75 Hard Update

I gave this challenge my very best effort.

In that, I am confident.

I did my one workout while on my lunch break every day outside of my office building.

One time, I had to do a late night yoga workout in my front yard to get my second workout finished.

I stuck to my diet and my water intake.

I read my 10 pages and finished my book.

But, my body and my brain did not hold up.

Monday and Tuesday, I was home all day in bed or laying on the kitchen table to be close to Mike.

I couldn't hold my head up.

I have been so nauseous.

I started to ugly cry and sweet Mike told me how proud he was of me for trying, but that this challenge was probably not meant for stroke survivors.

He's probably right.

Izzy laid with me on Tuesday. 
Every time I'd move my head off her arm, she'd stick it right back under my head.

She thought she was comforting me!

We are sticking with the mediterranean way of eating.

It's the best way for my body, we've discovered.

Lots of fruits and veges, whole grains, very little meat (turns out my body doesn't digest it right), fresh herbs and spices (nothing processed)...

Lots of water.

Giving up doesn't mean I failed.

It means I learned.
