Diary: March 11, 2010 (DAY 1)

As I mentioned in my last blog post, today is my first post-surgery day of exercise, so I chose to do a light workout: walking with integrated walking/jogging. I was pleasantly surprised.

• My breathing was great! My sinuses did NOT hurt. In fact, my previous stints with my breathing being out of control were not a factor tonight. My asthma did NOT rear it's ugly head. My breathing recovery after exertion was simply amazing to me.
• My muscles aren't as out of shape as I thought they'd be. They responded well to being pushed.

Post workout, I'm feeling a bit of swelling in my sinuses, but it's minor. I'm sure that my medicine & nasal spray will knock it out, no problem. Oh yeah, and I want to itch my skin off. LOL I DO remember that from the last time I started working out.
