Desert!

Just did my second session on the the range of motion machine this time the background was a desert scene rather than the Alpine village from this morning. I used to really bike through the desert when I lived in the Mojave. So it was nice. It's a 12-minute workout, 10 passive, 2 active. The first one put me out for most of the next three hours with some ice and a little pain increase. But I'm hoping to do better the second time. But I do have to lie down and elevate and ice my leg. I plan to hey back up and do things. Really. I did eat some cottage cheese and challah afterwards. That's in top of my banana breakfast. I don't reach much when I'm at home, don't get very hungry,

Also, Itook my next dose of Mounjaro to get back on track after surgery. I had to stop mine a week ahead. I stopped it 2 weeks out. IMPORTANT SAFETY TIP FOR USERS OF GLP-1 DRUGS such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, please realise that these medications work by slowing the emptying of the stomach, and therefore if your are sedated for any reason, you can aspirate and choke to death or get a form of pneumonia, either of which can kill you. As a result hospitals and other centres that sedate will not do so if you've taken one within one week. I knew this, but forgot before my colonoscopy and was given the option to reschedule and redo the prep or do it unsedated. I chose the latter. A surgery would have had to be rescheduled completely, though, so yes, I went two weeks out.😊
