The 2Js

I can't believe we are 8 weeks in and I am still here. Even after I had to stop working out for 2 weeks. I started something new this week. I am doing the 1 minute cardio with heart rate 95%, rest to 65% and do it again 5 times routine. Boy you have to stay focused!!! We are still here. Good luck everyone. I am looking forward to a good weigh in this week.

Ugh.....I am glad to be working out again. I didn't have all of my food several days last week and didn't get in workouts do to the boot. Boy it showed. This week it is back to working out. I was able to do upper body work out and 20 minutes on the SM before my foot started bothering me. I'm back!!!!

After a week trying to recover it was good to see 3.4 lbs lost. I am under 300!!! My foot is still painful, but i am hoping to get out of this boot soon. I can't wait to start excercising again!!! Who said that? Was it me? We are still eating healthy and perticipating after 6 weeks. Go US!!! I can't remember the last time I ate healthy for 6 weeks.

I am ding of boredom!! I can't even play with my clay much. Sigh. I just keep thinking 1 more week. I left the boot off yesterday for awhile to let it stretch. What a mistake. It felt like day one of the injury. I notice I am thinking of food more these days. It is the boredom. Sitting at the comp isn't an option cause it isn't elevated. So I am going to take care of this thing the right way!!! I just need to learn to be patient.

Well what do you call a woman in her mid 40s who excercises heavily at 328 with out a trainer??? Injured. I have been to the doc and it is tendonitis. I now realize what an important gift MPM is offering. To be able to have a trainer now to tell me what I can and can't do would be a unsurmountable gift. To have had one before I injured myself would have also been fabulous. I know my number won't be great this week. Now is when I have to say do I talk the talk or walk the walk. I have been to many sites of people who had a low number and let them know I was routing for them. Telling them that this is just 1 week and to keep going. I am routing for myself also. My food is good. I am stopping the urge to cut down, to compensate. I can do this. My doc said sure go ahead and do cardio...just don't remove the boot. Well after a few minutes my hip was killing me. The boot makes my right leg much higher then my left. Was he crazy? I am lucky my DH has been giving my leg lengthy messages through out the tendon. I think I'll keep him!!! I am still here and still doing it. I will not give up on myself.
