Hello all!
To all my friends I have always been known as a very active person. I run, I cycle, I workout 5x a week and I have used this as an excuse to eat whatever I want.
A couple of months ago while training for a 1/2 marathon I injured my hip. Since then, I have been unable to continue working out as much I had previously, which in turn has caused me to gain 10lbs. I have fallen into the visious cycle of emotional eating and not working out as much, since I have been limited to what I can do right now.
I am making a recommitment to myself today to take control of my eating habits, starting to exercise within my limits.
I am trying to remember that...Progress-not perfection-is important.

hi!
Good luck, I hope your hip is recovering and you can find other ways of exercising. I've sent off for some weights as that's worked well for me in the past.0 -

I just started physical therapy last week for my hip. They have given me some exercises (and some hope) to get me going in the right direction!0
