Week 4 Challenge and Rev/ Dex/ Krypolis

Well I've completed my 21 day fitness challenge- didn't have much time to give a day by day plan with the exception on IG posts -Yoliecooks.
It's been some interesting few weeks, but happy to say I safely lost 5 lbs, and 4 more to go. This challenge has taught me that I don't have to just go with the flow, but I can move towards a healthier eating regimen as well as workout. This challenge was more rewarding than when I normally workout at the gym... with that I'm proud of the results.

-Losing some of waist and stomach- states happiness on my part.

Healthy mindset is a must for those going through chronic conditions. The way to move ahead in making changes is towards your diet and getting some form of physical activity*.

*Always speak with your doctor when you want to go that route of physical activities in what should and should not be done, based on your individual situation.

Diet
My diet consisted of mindfulness- period!

It was refreshing to eat minimal and really pay attention on what I placed on the plate.
My regimen went a little like this:
Breakfast- (1 or another)
Smoothies (yogurt, fruits, and flaxseed)
Oatmeal and blueberries

Snacks- (1 or another)
Blueberry (under a cup)
Low fat Popcorn (under a cup)
Trisket crackers (4-5 crackers)

Dinner- (1 or another)
Less white rice and more brown rice- 1 small serving
Fresh vegetables
Salads
Fish or Chicken

It was fun to play around with the meals and record my eating schedule on the fridge.
Part of this challenge was a huge intake of water- which definitely did my body good.

More developments on the way :)

Pivot

The last few years have been interesting. Life has been busy, and this has taught me different perspectives on living with multiple myeloma. I wanted to expand on this on another point, but lately, I recalled when I thought my time here on Earth was near. I was deathly ill and it was clear that death was my fate and in this way. I survived that situation but it then expanded my walk further with multiple myeloma. After an arduous treatment, I met lower numbers and back-to-back 0 spike, and BMX showed MRD...REMISSION-YES! There has been a lot of pivoting in thinking one way and then having something else happen. It's clear there's no rhyme to reason; However, there's faith but that is even questionable for some folks. I know who questions faith- right? Some do and rightfully so when you don't have control over the situation. It feels okay in the moment to question. Pivot with multiple myeloma is about rethinking living. Yes, it is a drag to be on treatment, and th...

Plugging Multiple Myeloma

I had a wonderful conversation with a new friend on the trials of myeloma, and it was interesting that we’ve both experienced to some degree the nonchalant reactions when faced with our disease. The saying to walk a mile in one's own moccasins could never be far from the truth, sometimes you get the feeling that no one cares or your cause and or experience is not of interest...., or better yet taken seriously.... I'm reviewing various sources to promote Another Face of Multiple Myeloma , and after extensive research I found there a not many books on patient related experiences, which I find odd, with the exception of popular myeloma blogger Pat Killingsley, I found just two other personal stories from author's penned memoirs on myeloma, and one unfortunately passed away and the other I'm desperately trying to gather contact information. I was in the process of working with a top myeloma foundation to present my book to readers that could possbly relate to my experi...
