I am beginning to feel like the walking wounded. My left foot still hurts a bit - I think I sprained it but I kept on going and it is mostly better. My right knee is hurting from a previous surgery but it isn't too bad and it is mostly after I walk. Now my right foot by my little toe is hurting quite a bit mainly after I walk not so much after I do my DVDs. My Mom told me once we have genetically deformed feet and I think that is why my right foot is hurting. I just pray it doesn't affect my doing my DVDs because I really believe I need them to get in shape. We cancelled out Y membership because we didn't see when we could even go workout there and I was doing so well with my DVDs I was happy to keep on with them. Today I did Richard Simmons for 26 minutes and tomorrow will be Jillian again. I was amazed today when I noticed that I am getting some slight definition in my stomach area. It has to be from those abdominal exercises on Jillian's DVD. I was so thrilled. I'll still end up with muscles under some loose skin but I may look better than I feared. I am thinking about trying to do Jillian every day now. I'm not quite there but I'm seriously considering it now that I see some real results. I have to go pick up my daughter from college so I will finish this post later.
I ate way too many carbs yesterday because I chose to have a cup of watermelon. It wasn't even that good. I think I had about 39 carbs yesterday. Today was OK but I totally screwed up my meals and went 8 1/2 hrs. between breakfast and lunch. I don't mean to do it. I just don't get hungry so I forget to eat and before I know it it is dinnertime. I am going to have to set my phone alarm to remind me to eat lunch.
I practiced my Spanish and my Italian today. I did my Bible study, my spiritual reading, my AA morning meditation, and some step work. I wrote in my journal and I did some sudoku puzzles for fun. I didn't work on my house but I walked 45 minutes and drove my daughter back and forth to school and picked her up again and my husband back and forth to work. I was going to mass but I couldn't wake up once I went back to sleep after 5am. Next time I'll have to stay up after I drive my husband so I can make it to mass.
I still need to do my prosperity meditation and pray the rosary tonight.
I'm pretty tired already...

Oh my: you have been in the wars! My physiotherapist recommends icing for any injury and it really does work. That and rest... How does it go? RICE: Rest, Ice, C??? and Elevation. From experience, I can recommend you invest in a pair of good quality, supportive walking shoes / trainers. But you're doing so well with your exercise regime, and it's a great motivation to actually see the benefits.

You poor thing. Put a bag of frozen peas or corn into a plastic bag and wrap it round your injury/ies. Wear it for as long as you can stand it (no pun intended), then leave it off for a while. It WILL relieve the swelling/bruising/aches. Trust me. Been there, done it. Chris

Andrea, I had xrays done of my feet one time and the dr told me he had never seen so many crooked bones in his career. Not a single bone is lined up correctly with the one before or after it. lol My hands are the same way. All my fingers bend toward the center of my hand. Inherited from my grandmother. I sure hope that your injuries start to feel better and that you can get back into your routine without being in so much pain! Take care of yourself. You are doing wonderfully!
