Today I headed to the gym  and had a good workout. I spent a bit of time in the pool (only about 6 or 7 laps) but it was long enough to get my upper body moving and to work out a bit of the kinks. Some days my body is a bit more stiff [...]

A few things made my day today… just thought I’d share them with you!

Firstly, I want to send out a special thank you to fat clothing stores which engage in deceptive sizing practices. I went shopping today for a new pair of pants. They are a size 14. I am in no way CLOSE to [...]

Today I had my medical appointment at the recruiting centre to see if the accident affected my body enough to warrant a new medical to take place.

And the result?

I’m good to go! I just have to provide a statement from the physiotherapist upon completion of the treatment to show that the treatment required was completed. [...]

I had the first of my physiotherapist appointments today. He was fully expecting me to be barely functioning after he heard about the impacts the other driver made on my body with the force exerted. I had been hit from the front and the side (my car spun around a bit… the first major impact [...]

In the overall picture of my workouts, today wasn’t the most intensive… it most certainly wasn’t the longest… it wasn’t the hardest… but, it WAS a workout that I’m somewhat proud of. Just 11 days ago I suffered whiplash and a lot of nasty bruising. I refused to sit around on my couch and moan [...]

After notifying the Recruiting centre of my dilemma, an appointment with the medic has been made. This will likely be the same medic who I had initially thought was a bit tough on me before (but later discovered, he’s that way with everyone) and I give kudos to him for helping me get approved for [...]

After my last post of finally getting into the 210’s (219), Christmas came. And it went. And on the way back from my holidays down south, I was hit by a truck.

My brother and I were both in the vehicle. I managed to avoid a head-on (barely) and many people who are “in the know” [...]
