My waistline has been expanding everyday. Surprisingly the scale at the doctors office, at least last Wednesday, was at 132. I can only attribute it to loss of muscle from no weight training.
Good news! My MRI and EMG showed no pinched nerve. And my neuropathy got better after seeing my endocrinologist. Apparently, I was suffering from hypothyroidism and synthetic hormone took care of the numbness.

My workout routine now consists of mostly yoga and cardio. I did a bunch of body weight squats and (very careful) lunges yesterday a long with some push ups. A lot of people have been cautioning me to take it easy with my workouts. Which I had to reassure people that I have been. I am SUPER cautious about what I consume and do to my body.

The good thing about my years of dieting and exercise, is that I am comfortable with eating small meals and also changing up my workouts. I am hoping that my workouts will make this transition for me a lot easier. For me, exercise has been key in keeping my energy levels up, helping my sleep and mood. In talking to my physician friends, and just reading up on books, 30 mins of exercise a day is highly encouraged.
