#LoveYourLegs

SHE IS STRONG. Today I got six miles in as a storm was rolling in over the the river, but it ended up just sprinkling and passing over. It was a beautiful walk/run on the trail and I spent a good amount in silence. The future IS scary, but we can laugh at the thought because GOD holds it. Sometimes walking into a storm allows you to see the stillness and power. Thankful for the time to reflect on that today and pray it for my friends. It’s a blessing to face the unknowns and trials with your friends because you get to see how God shows up and works. May I be able to provide a picture of the Lord’s strength to those who need it and remember it myself every single day. Today I was tempted to skip working out but I thought “do it for the gram!” At the end of the day, it’s all for me, but you guys are such an encouragement and I am blessed by you! The second picture is a comparison I used in March with an addition of today. The oldest picture- I truly don’t even remember being that big. It is so wild to me! The next photo was March, months into taking health seriously and the other photo is today, where I’m finally proud of how my thighs look when they do “the thing.” Because I am STRONG. #loveyourlegs #childbearinghips #thighs #fitness #workout #hottoevenhotterifthatsevenpossible #skinnylegend #killerqueen #motivation #whole30 #healthyliving #nonscalevictory #consistencyiskey https://www.instagram.com/p/By8sdC2FGHD/?igshid=1gwufmf6j4yoz

Happy Transformation Tuesday evening! 3 years ago today I was supposed to have a total knee replacement in my 10 operated knee, and today I put 3 plates on each side of the leg press! YAYYYY, thank you @organicelltm amniotic stem cells that has regenerated my knee and still good today! Thank you also to all my TLC warmup activation exercises I do several times a week to keep my hips, hammys and booty strong to keep this magic knee happy! Contact me for more info on what these exercises are and for stem cells! The exercises shown were just a few lifts from my leg day at the gym today! I have not done split squats in a long time. They felt really good and I can’t wait to feel it later! #yay #loveyourlegs #legday #lisaskneejourney #bootyforadays #lisareedfitness #muscles #magical #grateful #lifting #liftingmybody #liftweights #strengthtrain #ilovetolift #strongertogether #organicell #rejenerativemedicine #preventativehealth #keepmovingforward https://www.instagram.com/p/CQudGUMhIMd/?utm_medium=tumblr

As someone who appreciates the joy of the simple things when it comes to legs and simple normality I totally get why she was so frustrated. You stop being a person waiting on the body healing and you can’t do any of the things that make you feel like you are getting better your world shrinks drastically and it’s infuriating. The desire to simply do the easy things like shower, dress, move around, go outside, and have a ‘normal’ leg again is so high. But the time legs take to heal, of if they aren’t healing isn’t something you have control over and that’s where it can psychologically eat at you. The feeling of no control, helplessness, frustration, of being isolated, limited, loss of activities and people even social circumstances that gave you joy or comfort. We all take our legs for granted but they do so much for us. Carry us around, dance, surf, swim, stretch, climb all things you do with your legs in a day. What if you couldn’t move one, a cast or dressing that stopped one working completely? How would you feel 6 weeks or more later when you still could only barely go to the loo alone? Or perhaps you can only go up stairs one step at a time with your strong leg always stepping up, that simple thing going upstairs now becomes a long tiring exercise and most don’t even think twice. Take care of your legs. After a long day or long periods of standing elevate them. Change your skincare to protect them in all seasons and moisturise to keep the skin in good condition. Exercise them of course but let them recover as well. If you are seeing swelling of your lower limbs or almost ‘bubble’ like bumps on the skin get your GP to check or refer you to see if there is any issues with Lymphadema/Lipodeama. Compression garments can make a world of difference if you do have either of these. If you are also finding that your joints are cracking or painful and it continues for more than 6 weeks then again look into your local practice for possible physio and X-ray for arthritis. I can’t emphasise enough how much I would love to have a ‘normal’ life with my legs and I don’t. To enjoy just slipping on some sandals, feel the breeze on your skin, the feeling of sensation in the back of your leg, the ease of not thinking what you wear or do because of adaptations you have to make daily. Mark in this was supportive, patient and mega understanding. Carers will recognise the issue of also being both totally worried about the person but also frustrated they won’t stop trying to do stuff. Also that they can loose who they are in the act of being a caregiver as they literally become the functions of another and no longer an individual. He was doing his best here and you could see what a good relationship they already had that it was able to weather this and do so well for so long before the stress of the situation made them hit a point of issue. That they then communicate and talk about how they are both scared for each other and what this is doing to their relationship is probably what saves it. If you can’t see and recognise that moment when it comes then sadly it will not end so well as this did. How fabulous to imagine being in love with the best mate you always had in your life and he was just there, loving, supporting and going through everything with you. What a lovely story that comes from the hardships you may cross. Also to remember that in any crisis there are lots of people going through something. The person who was hurt, the ones who love them and the folks around them. The focus can easily stick with the person who is injured but you both have to deal with the shock and heal. In this Mark was so upset she was hurt and so scared in those first moments of just knowing it was bad enough to be at the hospital, then felt so responsible that it was hurting him too. Try to think about the ones that are around the injured cause they need help too. Once again your writing and story telling is a gift. 💖🌟👍🏻🥰🦵🏻

Accidents Happen

Summary: You had always been clumsy and now you had really done it, and broken your leg. Losing your independence was crushing you, but what you didn’t realise was how much your pain was causing Mark as well.

Characters: Mark Tuan x reader

Genre: a bit of depressive behaviour, angst, and then fluff lol

Warnings: if you’re a little squeamish over basic medical terms, or the idea of breaking a bone, don’t read this.

A/N: So this is a collaboration with my dearest friend Tiger over @thewritingtrashcan … we decided to use the same prompt but not tell each other who we’d write about or the context. This is what I came up with. It’s actually based on a lot of factual stuff from my life, I am actually this clumsy and I did shattered my leg back in university in a freak accident with my horse. I’m 90% okay now though! All the same, sometimes I feel I need to revisit this moment of darkness in my life through fiction, as an act of healing. I chose to do it with Mark because he was the first person I thought of when reading the prompt. And it worked really well with him. Funny how I’ve biased him this long and I’ve never written him before. This piece has been a little interesting to write, but I’m so glad I chose to base it off past experience.

Prompt: “You make me so mad right now, you know that?”

Word count: 3295

You groaned inwardly when you looked up at the large letters on the building in front of you, barely capturing them all before you were transferred inside. The bright lights, beeping noises and multiple voices around you were hard to register with any clarity, but that could very well be due to the heavy set of drugs the paramedic had given you on the ride in.

You sure had done a good job this time.

Your whole life you were known as the clumsy one, able to sprain your own ankle by tripping over yourself. You knew the Orthopaedics department of the local hospital inside out; you had visited it so many times over the years. The treatment R.I.C.E* was embedded in your brain, and yet despite your efforts to prevent yourself from another injury, you’d always be back. It was tiresome to be this ridiculously clumsy.  

And despite regular attempts, you had always heard the words; “it’s just a nasty sprain” whenever you were done with being prodded, x-rayed and bandaged up.

But this was different.

You knew your leg was broken as soon as you landed, falling off the back of your horse in a freak accident. You had been surprisingly calm, but your friend with you was a lost cause, more stressed than you were in that moment. You were still worried about her as they wheeled your bed towards a slot in the emergency department, a doctor soon joining the team around you.

You were scared.

Dream Bed for a Tall Girl

I recently ran across this photo on Facebook...it was actually a repost of somebody else’s repost, so I don’t know where it originated from, but I found it interesting when I saw it.

Corny and boring as it may be, I began to think on the bed size that I’d prefer verses what I’ve experience in relation to my height.

I have never experienced anything past an Eastern King mattress - which I loved - with the exception of the Twin X-long! (I didn’t know that even existed!?) The Eastern King has given me enough circumference to roam-sleep without a limb hanging off and it catching pneumonia, so I think I’d be cool with that.

I would like to try the California, Alaska, Wyoming Kings someday, but I don’t think that I’d ever want to own either. I’d just feel greedy and wasteful.

Then I imagine that, like everything else not average size, everything about those sizes comes with a greater price tag. PLUS, you have to have the space ratio and bedding to accommodate those sizes. They way my life is set up - - if I can’t go get it off the shelf real quick, at an affordable price, I’m good. But I would like to try them one day, though. 

- Love, Duchess💋
