I made it to the gym again yesterday and while I had to cut my cardio down by ten minutes (I had to make it to class) I still did another full workout and it felt so good! I was on a bit of a workout high for most of the rest of the day! Lol!!
What is also pretty great about getting back to a normal workout is what comes with it....SLEEP!!! I have struggled with bouts of insomnia off and on for the past couple years and it has been very frustrating. So far, the days I have been able to get a full work out in, I have knocked out cold early! Lol! Sometimes I wake up late at night for a couple hours but then I am back out again until morning:). And I have noticed getting up when the alarm goes off is easier too. I know this is all normal for exorcising but I haven't seen it quite like this in a long time because of the limit on what I could do. Now, with no limits but my own strength, it is pretty great to reap some of the rewards:).
After 15 years of trying to finish my undergrad, I spent the week before finals in and out of the ER. During finals I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. I graduated Magna Cum Laude the next weekend from Western Michigan University. I am now blogging about my experiences of fighting cancer & living life after in hopes of being able to help others.

Feeling Good!
