Woke at 250.9 lbs, looking similar to yesterday and I have no idea how that happened. Didn’t eat that much, didn’t drink that much.

Rehab work on waking, around 30 minutes. It’s helping a ton.

Head is stuffed with concrete, but other than that I feel pretty decent.

Off to work today and tomorrow and I’ll be honest, I’m glad because it’s a break from family responsibilities. I love my wife and munchkin but he’s six and likes attention while she’s smart and when I’m around tends to be conveniently occupied.

Second round of rehab after work. Rushed it a little. Need to watch that.

How are those hot baths going ?

Woke at 250.4 lbs, looking a tad more bloated than yesterday. Head still stuffed to hell, but back feels good enough that I think I can dial the rehab work back to once a day. Hopefully I’m not wrong.

@simo74 they never happened. I don’t really fit in our bathtub.

Do you have a friend with a spa who could get it nice and hot for you ?!

First of, that sounds so dodgy…

Not that I know of. Besides, heat won’t do much to fix it. Getting my core to activate properly is what made a difference. I was bracing about 75 per cent correctly from what I can tell. That 25 per cent missing didn’t matter until I tweaked or pulled whatever it was, and then it mattered hugely.

The heat may not fix it but it will make you feel a whole lot better. It may sound dodgy but is exactly what I do with my neighbour. I text them and tell them to turn the heat up and later that day I do and relax. Sometimes they’ll even give me a cold beer while I’m in there !!

That sounds pretty familiar.

Woke at 250.2 lbs, looking similar to yesterday. Head might be starting to clear up. Back is effectively pain free, so that’s a win. I think I’ll keep doing the activation work daily though.

Great news. You had me all worried talking about tingly back and legs.

YOU were worried? Yeah, I get you. I was worried too.

Overnight I got an impromptu test. I woke up, rolled over quickly and coughed while I did it. A week ago and I’d have screamed. This time nothing happened. I figure that’s a good indicator.

I ended up taking your advice though. I haven’t done any training this week. Ok, so I have a cold which I figured I’d shake first. Next week onwards and I’m back in and I have to just ride out that seven weeks.

Lmao, no the one with the Swedish chick has a pool but no spa. He invites me over for a swim usually when the sweedish chick is sunbathing with her bikini on. But we are not dirty old men!!!

Kind of expected to be pretty bloated.
