Video Update: I’m Almost Back! 🙌

    Since I shared https://www.travelinglowcarb.com/30174/summer-goals/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>my Summer Goals I’ve made HUGE progress in my recovery, and am seeing so many improvements in my overall health and daily life. 🤗

    In my next post I’ll give you a more detailed update about everything I’ve been up to, but for now I want to share this video with you that I posted last night – and we’ll start there. I know a lot of people aren’t on Facebook, or you may have missed it, so you can https://www.facebook.com/lowcarbtraveler/videos/543998790785104/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>watch it there or here on my blog.

    It’s just a fun and VERY candid 10 minute video where I talked about trying electrolytes – first timer here! 🙋‍♀️ – which ones I’ve tried, a live taste test, and a casual chat:

    You can also https://www.facebook.com/lowcarbtraveler/videos/543998790785104/” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>watch this video on Facebook and join the discussion there. My Facebook Page is public, so you should be able to watch it even if you’re not on Facebook. 😉 Or the video is https://www.youtube.com/c/LynnTerryLowCarb/videos” rel=”noopener” target=”_blank”>on my YouTube channel if you prefer that.

    I have so many updates to share with you since my last post about Summer Goals! I’m doing ALL the things I talked about in that note. 🙂 Testing electrolytes was one of those things I mentioned, and that definitely seems to be helping. I’m short on time today so I’ll work on putting that update together for you over the weekend. For now, here’s what I shared along with the video above:

    I was averaging 3 “good days” a month, which was a huge improvement from last winter.

    But lately I’ve had 2-3 “good days” a week! 💯❣️

    A combination of things really seems to be helping me get on the better side of Long Covid, including: acupuncture, compression socks, an H1/H2 antihistamine combo, pacing & rest of course, an elimination diet (AIP / keto / very low carb), cold therapy, etc.

    Plus more recently I’ve added in electrolytes daily 🥤 and I’m now able to drive a little so I’m doing my own version of Physical Therapy in the swimming pool. Mostly walking in the 4′ swim lane, and easy swims. 🏊‍♀️

    My joints still hurt and I still have a lot of issues with balance and mobility, so walking in the water is a great low-impact way to exercise now that I can engage my muscles again! 💪

    RE: muscle control – watch me keep dropping the capsules in that video, lol. 🤣 While I had a GREAT day (earlier) with cognitive function etc, I still struggle with coordination. And I edited out all the times I forgot what I was doing 🤪 haha, you’re welcome!

    👣 You can’t see them in the video (again: you’re welcome! lol) but I’m wearing compression socks. I just ordered two new pair that I think I’m going to LOVE way better than the ones I have now:

    Also… what sweetener do YOU prefer?!

    I never have been able to like Stevia. 😝

    p.s. yes, I’ve lost A LOT of hair over the last year+ (ugh). 🤦‍♀️ I’m doubling up on the collagen and eating higher protein, but that’s just part of being so unwell. You can read more about “eating high protein” on my blog at:
