Will Not Let This Fade Out

Photobucket
Ok need this bright start. It has turned cold, windy and grey again. Yesterday was so sunny and actually hot. The days just keep jumping back and forth with this weather. Spring just can not get a foot hold. Like the weather I have been flip flopping on this weight loss mindset lately. Just so feed up with no progress. At the same time so what the losses to start back, need them to. This foot issue has not helped with the impact it has had on workout. Yesterday feed up with it I decided to go hiking anyway. Walked through it, just missed the outings so. It hurts when I do nothing but today reminds me that it can up the level when pushed or should I say pinched. The therapy and pad at the back of the bone is not seeming to be very helpful. Go in again today, see what he says. The eating over the holiday was not to bad. It was mostly a work and clean up weekend. Did go and see a movie and did not pass on the popcorn, it was plain but they still had some salt on it. Woke up really wanting meat so had a little leftover chicken with the bread for breakfast. Have decided to really play it strict starting now to see if that helps even with the cut in workout.

Just self reminder... Defeat should not be a source of discouragement but a stimulus for a fresh start :-).

Hey girl.....I love this picture. How are things going? I had a really bad weekend....I threw my Ipod in the washer :( My youngest son took it apart and dried it out for me and I was sure it was shot. Hooked it up to Itunes and reset it.....didn't think or look like it was going to work but I messed with it some and I have my Ipod back. Few minor imperfections but I got tunes!!!!!

Sorry about the ipod, glad it bounced back. My youngest has one that looks like it has gone through a war. He always has it with him and it has taken many a beating. Hope this week will bring you better things.

Was just dropping in quick because my leg and foot are really not happy and letting me know tonight, going to bed early. Got a cortisone shot along with the therapy today and they are not happy at all. He said it could feel worse today and tomorrow but should turn around after that. Hoping so, really need to get back at workouts (so miss yoga!). Still waiting for son's test results , so hanging on there. But it is the last week of school, Thank Goodness.

you have to get a spin on some good luck....real soon. Sorry to hear about your problems with the limbs and no test results back on the boy. This is the one that plays guitar? Hang in there and I am sending good vibes and prayers your way!

Hi,
yes it is my youngest. He plays guitar and bass also sings. He loves music. Going to call about the cat scan tomorrow since I have not heard from the doctor yet.
Good vibes working :-), the leg and foot were crazy this morning but got progessively better as the day went on. Over did it this evening though trying to get caught up some. Fingers crossed that the doctors perdiction of tomorrow being turn around day is right.
Still liking zumba and yoga?

Zumba yes,,,,,yoga....I am still working on liking that. I know I didn't like going to the gym at first but I love it now. I know the Yoga is working me big time and kicking my butt, I think I will like it more when I am able to do more.....sense of accomplishment. Find out anything on the CAT scan? Still sending good vibes your way.

Have not heard from the doctor yet but went and got a copy for myself. Did not look at it until we got home and now have questions because all it talks about is headaches and sinus stuff. I knew he had that but that was not the reason for this scan (had had a sinus cat scan done before). Hoping though the report is not helpful that the neurologist can look at the scan and tell us something. So still on hold, it is aggravating, at least he is done with school for the summer. One pressure down for him. And though he thought he was doing so bad he pulled off As and Bs. That was good enough for me with everything. He still wanted his all As. I'm proud of him with all this he has started working out and quit pop cold turkey. He now says he does not even like the taste of pop anymore. Never thought I'd hear him say that. (With the medicine they had wanted him to go with as little caffine as he would, so he is trying to just cut it out, he's my water guy now)
I read on the boards you are going 100% this week, I'm with you. Also going to try and get some new workout routine that works with this pain in the but foot.
Here's to a great week!!!

Going 'cold turkey' off the cokes can lead to additional headaches but I am so proud of him. It will be better for his teeth too!
Rie...we can do this....together we can. On 3 Fat Chicks they have a points thing where you get 2 points for staying on 'program' with the food, 1 point for exercise and 1 point for water. I have been perfect the first 2 days but yesterday I only got 3 pts because I didn't get in all my water. It helps to hold me accountable. Maybe we can try that on Freedom Fighters? Even if we did it for a week instead of a whole month, we would begin to all feel better. It's a suggestion. Great Week Ahead!!!! Yah!
