@bbinoa It's amazing how we can change mentally. The fact that you miss working out is huge. It'll happen soon though. In the meantime, continue to get better, and enjoy being pampered by your hubby. I love pizza. He could "cook" for me any day. Ha, ha, ha, ha.
I'm feeling a lot better these days, and yes I'm taking. I actually did a run today. It wasn't bad at all. Considering today was my first run in a while, I was happy I survived it.
@MelissaPhippsFeagins I hope the migraine lifted.0 -

7/21 Chevy green, gym (99 calories over)

@Laughter_Girl it took until Saturday morning for it to completely fade. Stressed out over the kid and his heart condition and the rapidly increasing amount of money I owe my employer. (actually, I could raid my savings account to pay it off, but they'll let me make payments so that's what I am doing.)0 -

I wished I could have exercised today, but I just didn't have the energy for it. I'll try again tomorrow. Maybe it's the heat?
@MelissaPhippsFeagins I'm glad the migraine eventually went away. I'm sorry you're stressing though. It can really take a toil on one's health. I'll be praying for some peace so that you can rest. Hang in there.

Guess who got rid of crutches today? Woohoo! Had my first follow-up this morning. They said I'm doing great. I'm wearing one of those walking boots for a few days to get used to weight bearing, but I'm allowed to transition to a real shoe whenever it feels okay. I'm also allowed to walk, workout, swim, shower etc. Just no running/jumping/squats w/heavy weights etc. yet. I promptly hobbled home after the appointment and washed my foot! It's been 2 plus weeks without getting it wet and we've had nothing but 90 degree days. Ick. It's sore, but I'm feeling pretty good right now just to be off crutches. Also very happy I can swim- we have a pool and the weather is definitely calling for it. I go back in 6 more weeks so I assume I'll get the okay to do everything at that point. Yippee! Oh, and apparently it wasn't going to heal w/o the surgery. My Dr. said there was a lot of scar tissue around the nerve so I did the right thing. I'm finally feeling like I'm getting back to normal.
How's everyone doing??
@Laughter_Girl how is the eating stuff going?
@MelissaPhippsFeagins I hate migraines... I go through times in my life when I get them and they're the worst. Really knock you down.

I have a busy few days ahead of me. I'm working in the kitchen preparing meals for kids in our Vacation Bible School at church. It's very exhausting. Two days down and three more to go. I'm happy to be helping out though.
@bbinoa That's wonderful news!!! I'm so very happy for you. You'll be a fitter and stronger you in no time.0 -

I'll definitely reach one out two of my goals, which is not bad. Next month will be a little better. I plan to really watch my portions, make healthier choices 80% of the time, and exercise with more intensity.
@bbinoa Glad you agree with me. Thanks for the well wishes. I'll fill you in tomorrow on how well the race went for me. Hope you're feeling stronger each day!0 -
