A week of gentle exercise can be exhausting post-chemo, I have discovered! I did the same routine every day last week. My leg muscles really ached. I am still surprised by how much this chemo malarky has taken out of me.
However, this small amount of exercise is helping me get back to normal. I really am going to have to learn to be patient though! I weighed myself this morning and I had gained 1/2 lb which is disappointing! Once I have seen my oncologist hopefully I should be able to "diet" properly.
So this week I have very slightly upped the exercise. I am going to walk 1.5 miles and I am doing 1 basic step routine on the Wii and 2 step plus routines. So we'll see how I get on with that!
