And start on the actual workout schedule on Monday then I'll be on track. I'm coughing a lot today and I'm extremely exhausted and will be napping later after lunch.

2nd workout

ok so i finished my second workout wow my legs are hurting worse. yes its supposed to be a rest day but i was lazy and started on a bad time schedule so i made up my time today and will workout 4 straight days this week. my wii ea active sport 2 is having online issues so as soon as it updates i will post my progress. as for my so called diet i had tyson anytizers with a dr pepper and took my pills ie: azithromycin and allegra. then i had ensure chocolate for muscles with half 2% milk. i just empty the bottle in a glass and fill the bottle with milk and empty and stir it helps to get any of the excess ensure out so i dont miss a drop. then i stir it reall good so it thins it out and drink with a straw seems to make it go down faster lol. i am coughing more today and my mucus is thinner and seeming more productive think this is a good sign lol. but a down side i have a headache after my workout like an annoyunce when i cough think im having a lack of oxygen so i need to work on breathing better while working out. today my husband was at his electrical classes so he wasnt here to hold my hand and get me through i was surprised that i did it all by myself without falling on my ass and i finished the workout. (claps hands) yay! lol. oh and i used the ea sports active 2 bundle kit today with the meduim reastance band and the 2 1lb arms/leg weights i put them on my arms i want to build those muscles first.  the link i show here isnt the same one i use but its the same kind looks like a newer model to the one i got. same stuff in it just newer package and more put together mine came from best buy with a mat on sale at the time for 20.00. id shop around to see what other people have to make sure you find what works for you i have animals so i wanted the mat for my own space. now time for a hot bath to sooth my muscles hubby bought epsom salt to help with this process so ill stop whining as much lol. again ill post my results as soon as ea sports active online is up and running.

First Workout

ok so i got the shoes to run in to help support my knees on our floor and to later transition into a full run not just for my wii game, ea sports active 2. i set up the game on easy to start with since i have no muscle and have a resting heart rate of 90 and goes up to 140 when i cough dont know if thats normal but its scary for me. i did 19 minutes burned 54 calories and ran a total of 0.06 miles the whole workout my average heart rate was 113 and i went all the way up to 160 when i peaked at my workout. i felt like i was dying and my body was jello. my head hurt and i was very dizzy even with a proper cool down. i will have to find a graph thing to add to show my progress at a later date. this is going to be a lot harder than i thought. i feel as if i went through a marathon. they say the hardest part is getting started and keeping with it so im determined to stick with it. also i started easy on a 3 week conditioning and strength training program and choose to have a personal trainer on the game. i had to have my husband standing behind me and help me to learn the moves and to make sure i didnt fall on my ass lol. and as it got harder and more intense i wanted to stop and the guy on the game was pissing me off with saying great job everytime knowing i wasnt doing great so my husband stepped into the trainer roll and encourged me to keep it up this is for my life not a phase not a game ive got to keep it up. if i want to live longer be a mom and see them walk across a stage get married and live pass their 5th birthday ive got to keep it up.

A Lot Of Firsts

My name is Ammie and i have CF, Cystic Fibrosis. i have always been told by family to not work out and to eat as much fatty stuff as i can get, in turn my lungs arent strong. and i have high blood pressure and extreme anixety i dont know how that one comes into play but im sure i will by time this is over. i have extreme OCD now mainly over germs and paper and my food. everything has a place and i need to work on that too. i have anger issues on top of all this. so im hoping exercising will help my lungs get stronger and my blood pressure to be controlled and maybe my anger will be a little easier to deal with when i have a routine and a way to vent out frustration. i recently went out and bought a game for my wii system called ea sports active 2, to try and help me get in shape to start a running routine in the future. every life changing event starts with steps right? well its been a week... day one was today, procrastination much? as i get further in this change i will update as much as i can plus how my health is being affected and the changes along my way. i wont use perfect puncuation or great spelling and my language will be my own some might not like it but its how i express myself. i do have a daily life some days i might not be able to keep tract of but so far my workout schedule is mon. tues. thurs. fri. rest on the other days and try to eat right while still gaining and maintaining my weight ill post more on my diet and workouts as i get to them. i love food so its not your average everyday "im to Fat' i want to lose 3 pounds by summer" thing. its just an alternative to fast food.  hope you enjoy the journey and fight for life.
