Today is my second session of pulmonary rehab. I have waited all summer for this program to have a spot for me and I finally began last Friday. I have great expectations for its curative potential. Right! How about I have some hope that it can help me with all of the weight I have been carrying around since I began using steroids. I have some hope it can help me breathe easier, breathe deeper, breathe.From what we did on Friday it does not seem very intense. So maybe I will have to motivate myself more to do more outside of rehab.
OK - motivate myself. I am fat, 58, have sarcoidosis, fatigued, fat, - yet , not motivated. I remember when I began running in my mid-30s and how it hurt. I ran around the block and thought I would die! But I kept at it - what motivated me back then? I kept at it and then I just ran, and ran, and ran until there was not much left of me. And then ran some more.
Today, I cannot even stick with taking a walk. Motivation - I had better go looking for it.
