A Week Back Home In The NYC!

It's been a few weeks since I entered a progress report. Here are the few changes that have occurred so far.
It's been a week since arriving back to the Bronx in NY. There's definitely much adjustments to made here. I have to admit that I've been lazy and not up to par with my exercises since leaving Florida Which has left me limping and a with achy, slightly swollen leg. It seems instantaneous that I have spent the majority of my days running all over the borough, visiting friends and family. Yet, my body has not lacked in reminding me that I still must stay disciplined with my recovery regime, if I am to reach that 100% goal. I find that it is extremely easy to become distracted with the busy bustle of the city. But I am still very in-tuned with the work I know has to be completed to reach the "remission" goal I want to claim. Thankfully, I start back to work in a few days, which will make it easier to maintain a schedule for exercises and alternative therapy plans.

Even though I am back at home sweet home, I can not falter in my path of recovery. I can not become comfortable with all the familiar things I was use to prior to my surgery. I have learn to listen to my body when it calls for rest. I've realized how effortlessly is it to "take a break" from all my hard work.. but even in writing this post, I scold myself, knowing that I must continue my hard work. To maintain a healthy body shouldn't be "work", it is my new lifestyle. An everyday routine. Time to tweak my focus back onto the right track!

Be safe, and stay healthy!
