Yesterday was L&S Lower Body. It’s a tough one, which is saying something since they are all on the tough side. I was pretty tired and sore last night. I think in future I will tweak the schedule and not do upper and lower on consecutive days. It is effective though, I can feel the muscles in my legs. Lots of one leg lunges though. Although, I might sub a walk strong leg workout next time for some variety.
Today was 16 minute Core Challenge. I was appreciative of the short workout! I had to modify the crunches and hip lifts, but I did most of it. I liked the pelvic floor work at the beginning. I felt it worked the soreness out of my back, which was nice.
Regarding my dd, I think three were impacted. The oral surgeon said one tooth was easy, so I guess that meant the other three were harder to remove. She felt worse the first couple of days. Fortunately, ibuprofen and Tylenol was enough for the pain, but they did give her the time released pain medication after surgery. I assume that was intravenously. She went home Tuesday the day after, which I thought was too soon. But she wanted her own bed. The bleeding had almost stopped by then. She needed them out before they came in because they would cause her teeth to move. She just got her braces off, so obviously doesn’t want to lose her straight teeth. She is off work for four days, as they don't want her to do any activity that will cause more bleeding. She is supposed to go back to work Friday afternoon. I guess she can call in sick if she's not up for it.
Donna, my dd is doing well. I saw her last night, dropping off some mashed potatoes, and she looked a lot better. The swelling was gone from her face and she looked back to normal. She just can’t chew and I’m sure her mouth is sore. Donna, my soreness and muscle strain is always on my right side in my shoulders, back and glutes. Maybe because I'm right handed? I find that it's my pillow that makes a difference. No pillow or too flat and I get a sore lower back. Too high and I get shoulder and neck strain, along with a sore lower back. I'm like Goldilocks, I need one just right, lol.
Pam, that's too bad about the smoke from the fires. We got rain, and also Nevada and New Mexico, but it didn't seem to make it's way to the west coast and Washington. It's cloudy again today, and we might get more rain. I hope the drought ends on the west coast soon.
wishiwasinhawaii, there was a lot of blood! The dental assistant threw me off a bit, saying we wouldn't use the whole bag of gauze. I used it all, plus two boxes of gauze pads from Walgreens. Sheesh. But fortunately, it started tapering off about nine hours after surgery, and almost stopped after 24 hours.
