Leukemia is a drag!
I’ve been extra tired all this week. I guess my leukemia is rearing it’s ugly head right now. Sometimes I get super tired to the point that all I want to do is lie down and sleep. It will pass but in the meantime all I can do is keep plugging away at my workouts. Gotta keep my goals in front of me and not let my cancer control my life!
It has been hard to do intense training; all the weights seem extra heavy and it is hard to keep good form. I’ve gone to doing lighter weights and higher reps to get the burn going. At least I’m getting off the couch and working out, even if it is not the massive muscle building routine I want it to be right now. I’m hoping next week will be better!

Awesome work, Sue, even with a tough obstacle to train with.
Keep blastin’ the iron!

You..are a trooper…i have the nerve to complain on days I don’t want to train just because I’m lazy and don’t feel like it? And you train hard and consistent through your illness? I’m not sure what to say…You’re an amazing woman and as much as I’m inspired by many on here..I just think at this very moment..I’ve never been as much as I am now! Awesome lady!!

Every week will get better and better as your stength increases. What an inspiration the way that you forge ahead "in spite of". I think I just found myself another role model!~!

Everyone is very kind and encouraging! It really helps to know there are people out there who care enough to post positive comments. I don’t like to write stuff that makes me sound like a whiner but some days are harder than others. With all of this encouragement, I know I can keep on with my goals, bad days or not!

I agree with China2u about being a role model.
And I think you deserve to blow off steam by writing out how difficult your workouts are being for you. Writing is great therapy.
