Progress?

I still feel fatigued every day, but I have have not been good about taking my naps for the past couple of days. Today I let myself have an afternoon nap. Once I got up and ate dinner I felt refreshed. But, just like every morning when I wake up, I had a little bit of a headache and my neck/shoulders were really sore. Not sure what that is all about.

I didn't get up in time to make it to pilates class (or perhaps I subconsciously didn't want to go?!?), so I decided to go on a dog walk with my dad. I'm glad I did that because it was nice to get out and walk around the neighborhood, and the dogs had a wonderful time as well.

I also decided to try doing some yoga. I want to start my exercise regimen with something easy, like yoga, but I've been putting off yoga class because every time I bend over, even to pick up something off the floor, I usually feel pressure around the surgery incision area. But this evening, I decided to try a few sun salutations and see how that felt. I am happy to report that I didn't feel any pressure around the incision area while I was in downward dog, but I did notice the tightness in my calves; not surprisingly, I couldn't do a chattaranga into an upward dog, in fact I could barely do a push up. So, I can do the basics, which is enough for me right now.
