8/6-31-Vivofit tracked 51.7 =73.3 miles total
Well, August was a total bust! I thought my knee was OK because it worked just fine when I did the Heart Healthy Walk, the day I fell, but when I woke up the next morning, I was black and blue and all swelled up from my knee to to my ankle!!! :explode: So, off to the MD I went and there was nothing torn or broken, but I had a "severe hematoma," which is MD talk for a dynamite bruise! He told me to stop the walking and instead swim as the cold water would help the swelling and the swimming would help reduce the bruise. Do you know how many miles you log swimming???? NONE!!!! :grumble: However, the good news is that the bruising is just about gone and I only have a little discomfort left if I push on it so I am back to walking!! In more good news, my DH felt so terrible he picked up all of his construction debris and moved everything in the family room to the garage while the workers were there. I just love it when a man feels guilty! :laugh:
It was wonderful to read that so many of you are losing pounds and inches!!! I am also heartened to hear that so many of you dislike strength training! It seems almost everyone on the MFP boards talk about how much they love lifting and strength training and dislike aerobics. I could never figure out the thrill of lifting a bar with two heavy balls on each end over my head! :noway: What is the point???? :laugh:
Anyway, I am back to walking strong for September!0 -
Thank you @AnnofB.
@zichab, thank you for your update post. Oh, no, that is a very bad bruise! Bet your leg/knee turned all sort of splotchy yucky shades of blue/green as time went on 😧😥. But so happy nothing broken. LOL about the guilt inspired construction site cleanup :laugh:
Happy that you are back to walking strong again!!
Yes, I'm also in the don't like strength exercise camp. But I do have to up my game in that department. "Someday" is just not coming around very often... at all.
