Wasting away
For the past year I have been on Hormone medication to put my cancer into remission.
Good news: the cancer is in fact in remission!
Bad news: the medication allows for muscle atrophy
Add in my surgery and it's obvious to the eye I'm dropping muscle mass that I'll need to rebuild.
Weight when I entered the hospital 2 weeks ago = 185lbs
Weight today = 171lbs
I need to get this wound to heal and walk now and then build once I'm given the green light. Restrictions today are no lifting more than 10lbs, no standing for >10 minutes. Patience is key as I want to get after it now but I can't.
Until next time
