As I have been sitting in bed typing while feeling sick for a while. I wanted to chat about working out while sick. Do you do it? Do you rest? But what if you’re sick multiple days in a row? Do you rest all those days?

I had a big workout week planned. Lots of heavy lifting and some cardio intervals, but then I had the flu which came with a horrible sinus headache, then I had to go for a surgery.

Sometimes in life it pays to suck it up and rally, and sometimes you have to know when it’s time to rest and pay attention to your body. Being sick is one of those times. So all I did was – Rest, Reflect, and Recover!!

As I can’t be in the gym, I tried to eat healthy and drink lots of fresh juices to recover.

I got some fresh Mesclun Mix (Baby Green Romaine, Baby Red Oak Leaf, Baby Iceberg, Baby Spinach & Arugula) from the Inseason store located in Zamalek and customized it my way.
I added some almonds and fresh berries for the first salad.

In Ancient Egypt they worshiped cats. I know now why!

I love my cats because they are home and its visible soul. 7⃣ years of continuously love and loyalty .. I’m blessed to have them in my life. I survived and lived because they were there.

It’s really very strange how one can resist tears and behave very well in the hardest hours but then someone makes you a friendly sign with a flower bouquet. That flower which was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed and made you smile and feel alive.

When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. Those who are willing to be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. Thank you my dear friend @fo2elsoto7 for being that for me and for celebrating me being alive with pink flowers. You made my day and I’m blessed to have you!
