I'm not quite ready for vigorous excercise yet - as it causes me to herx - but I do have a goal to be playing ultimate frisbee by next spring - we shall see.
I played Ultimate Frisbee for 2 1/2 hours straight this evening. Got kicked in the head a couple of times. Laid out and landed on my shoulder. Twisted my ankle. I was running around all over the place. I am not injured and my knees are not swollen. Some minor pain in right knee where the meniscus was torn.
I'm not as fast or as strong as I was before but I haven't exactly been excercising either.
I used to get hurt really easy just before I started the MP. It got to the point where I would land on my shoulder and it would make a horrible crunching sound followed by pain that would last for weeks. I figured my bones and joints were deteriorating.
I went way better than I expected.  
I'll be in some pain tomorrow without a doubt. You just don't start running around after extended non activity without some pain. But no knee swelling and no crunching or damage is really good.

Your post makes me sooooo ready to get back into ballet class... yes, it's that brutal.
But, no way I could face myself in the mirrors in a leotard just yet. It's been a year since I've been in class and ten months on the MP and... I've got 15 - 20 pounds extra. I just can't deal with it yet.
And don't tell me my weight is th1. It's just the diet and being a slug. I shall return to having the body I once had.
Thanks for your update, Mark. Looking forward to getting kicked about.

With me it was the opposite. I lost muscle mass and went from thin to skinny. I'm about 20 pounds lighter than I would like to be but my bones don't seem to be brittle anymore so now I have something to build on. It's great.
Day 1 of Zith cycle too.

Hi Mark
Like Odette, your post makes me anxious for my "former" exercise junky life. Me, the avid runner, cyclist, inline skater who misses it so ...
I have gone the way of thin to skinny too. Lost so much muscle mass over the the last 10 months. I used to have a runner's butt .. now it just looks "flat". I am hoping and praying once through this I will be able to get my body back.
I think I read the previous post of yours a while back where you alluded to wanting to play ultimate frisby around now. So great to hear you have reached your goal. It put a big grin on my face when I read it and it stayed there throughout the day when I would think about your success!
Also ... you are around 6 months ahead of me (also Lyme being one of my prime Th1 culprits) so ... I am thinking I am hopefully going to be sitting in your shoes soon enough. I have really turned a corner in these beginning stages of phase 3 ... the light is at the end of the tunnel somewhat .. and your post just made me even more enthused!
Congrats!!!
Shari

Drink plenty of water, xtra salt (sea) (regular salt is mostly chemicals), lots of rest while avoiding the sun and avoiding Vit D in your foods!!!!!
