Daily Check In - Summer 2013

Thanks everyone for the help! I am really excited about the omega 3 suggestion. I looked into it and because it is a known anti-inflammatory, it is also known to help with extreme menstrual pain. Every month I am basically bedridden for a few days because of my cycle and I am really hoping that the omega 3's will not only help with my foot issues BUT will actually make those days bearable. Who knows... maybe I'll even be able to exercise on those days /gasp
Oh... and btw... as of this morning I have lost almost 12lbs in the three weeks I have been coming here! YAY!!!!! I know it will slow down soon and a lot of it has been water weight but I am still really excited!

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Made an appointment to check out a gym today. Went for a short walk
What would I have done different? I should have made a better attempt at reaching my personal goals

Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? For the most part... I go the pads for my foot and wore my shoes in the house MOST of the time! Sometimes I would forget since I am so used to going around our house barefoot... but I think I did well. I also checked out a nearby gym. Was a bit more expensive than I expected but hopefully hubby and I can figure out the $$. I didn't buy the omega 3 supplements but they are on sale where we will be shopping tomorrow so that's why.

WTG JSandi...........you are doing GREAT! How's your foot?0

Thanks so much Dahlia! My "pain" isn't bothering much at all... now when I am on my feet for hours on end, it isn't pretty. I am hoping to go to my doctor soon and talk to them about medically prescribed insoles, especially for my under developed arch. I should probably see my doc anyway before I really start working out at the gym or anything. That way if I need any braces for my ankles or knees until the muscle are stronger, I can get the proper one prescribed. (Yes, my body has started falling apart, but I am hoping strength training will start putting it back together.)
