Last one for tonight, I promise! 😂

But the garage gym therapy was too good not to share, and when God gives you the strength to move, you don’t waste it.

After riding the bike, I picked up the weights for a targeted upper-body session: Hammer curls, bicep curls, and Arnold presses—3 sets of each.

There is something so therapeutic about isolating the muscles when your joints are fighting against you. The Arnold presses definitely had my shoulders screaming by the third set, but every bit of it felt like a victory.

With advanced arthritis, you learn to adapt. If I can't do heavy lower body work right now, you better believe I'm going to work on building strong arms and shoulders! As I pressed those weights up, I was reminded that God’s power is made perfect in our weakness. My hip might be a mess, but my spirit is locked in.

I am using every ounce of today’s news as fuel to lose the weight and gain the strength I need. I’m walking hand in hand with Him, one rep and one day at a time. 💪🏼❤️

Action follows intention. 💪🏼🚴🏼‍♀️
I said today’s news from the surgeon was going to be fuel, so tonight I put that fuel straight into the pedals! I was able to get out to my garage gym and ride my recumbent bicycle for 15 minutes.
With advanced arthritis, every minute of movement is a hard-fought battle, but I am determined to keep moving forward, gaining strength, and climbing this mountain one day at a time.
The diagnosis hasn’t changed, but neither has my focus. His grace is sufficient, and tonight, I’m celebrating these 15 minutes of victory! ✨

Not only did my baby girl graduate today with her Doctorate of Physical Therapy… she also received the Clinical Excellence Award and was inducted into the Alpha Eta Honor Society for allied health students.

To say I’m proud would be an understatement. Watching her work tirelessly for this moment has been incredible. But what makes this even more meaningful to me is that she accomplished all of this while also walking beside me through the hardest health battle of my life last year.

She showed strength, compassion, grace, and resilience far beyond her years.

Today we celebrate not only her accomplishments, but the extraordinary woman she is.

My heart is overflowing. Congratulations, Hannah. You were made for this. 🤍

Today’s gym session ✔️
Big moment for me today — I loaded the 45 plates on the chest press for the first time. Honestly didn’t think I had that in me yet, but my gym bro believed I could and pushed me to try anyway. 💪🏼
58 pounds down from where I started, but more importantly… I’m getting stronger. Grateful for the growth, the strength, and the second chance God has given me. One workout, one rep, one choice at a time. 🙌🏼

That soreness you feel? Somewhere, someone is wishing they could feel it too.

Right now, that “someone” is me—but I’m not staying there. One day, I’ll be back in the gym - squatting - feeling that leg day soreness again.

If your body is able today—move it, challenge it, strengthen it.

Don’t take the gift of ability for granted!

God didn’t bring me through everything just to leave me where I was.

This journey was never about becoming my old self again. It’s about healing, growing, and stepping into the woman He’s calling me to be — stronger in faith than I’ve ever been. 🤍

P.S. Still tripping occasionally, but at least I’m tripping forward! 😉
