THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT!

I DID THAT 10 MINUTES OVER 9 HOURS AGO, AND I AM STILL NOT RECOVERED. MY HUSBAND WAS FURIOUS WHEN HE CAME HOME FROM WORK AND SAW ME LIKE THIS (DAZED AND EXHAUSTED). HE GETS SO ANNOYED WHEN I PUSH MYSELF TOO HARD, BUT COME ON, 10 MINUTES ON AN EXERCISE BIKE? YOU KNOW, I HAVE HAD M.S. SINCE 1986, AND I *STILL* CAN'T BELIEVE HOW COMPLETELY EXHAUSTING I CAN FIND THINGS SOMETIMES. WHEN I AM WELL, LOOK OUT, BUT MOST OF THE TIME...

THAT IS A GOOD IDEA ABOUT USING THE PROGRAM AS A TEMPLATE. THE THING IS, I GOT TO 9 OR 10 TODAY, AND THAT IS WHAT HAS DONE THIS. I FORGOT THAT, UNLIKE WITH A HEALTHY PERSON, IF I PUSH MYSELF TO MY LIMIT, I SIMPLY DO *NOT* BOUNCE BACK LIKE A HEALTHY PERSON. PERHAPS I NEED TO LOOK AT DOING THE PROGRAM SO THAT IT ACTUALY HELPS ME RATHER THAN MAKES ME WORSE

I'M AN AMERICAN, AND THAT SMACKS OF GIVING UP/FAILING/LOSING. I NEED TO BE MORE OF A SCOT, JUST SAY, "BUGGER IT" AND DO WHAT I *CAN*
