I am about to embark on a two week road trip with 5 kids and a dog! I am not sure if I will be able to maintain my sanity! But it should be fun and hopefully a huge blessing for us as well. The initial purpose of the trip is to take my 9 yr. old son who has ADHD to a homeopathic Dr. in my parents hometown. Other members of my family have had great results from seeing him. So, I am keeping my fingers crossed that this will help him.
Anyhow, the fact that I will be traveling and using different scales (I will still have to weigh in for the fitness challenge that I will be participating in) I wanted to see what my weight is on the my scale. I have actually lost the 5 lbs. that I had gained back plus an additional 1 lb. So, I am down 6 lbs. from my last weigh in! Whoo Hoo! :)
I obviously need to keep doing what I am doing. I have not been able to work out for the past two days. Yesterday morning I was getting ready to work out (Yoga x) but remembered that the garbage can needed to be put on the curb. My husband was still in bed, so I decided to do it myself. (I usually make him do it because we have a huge, out of control dog in our backyard that attacks whoever enters the backyard ... except for Brian) Anyhow, I opened the gate and realized that the dog hadn't heard me, so I grabbed the can and started backing out of the gate as fast as I could so that I could close the gate before the dog got over to me. As I was backing up, I ran into the electric meter thing that is on the side of the house. I have a gigantic bruise my right calf, I was wearing flip flops, I twisted my ankle and ripped my foot open on the gravel (when I twisted my ankle, my flip flop came off leaving me with a barefoot) Anyhow, I have some fun injuries. Luckily my ankle is fine. My calf is fine, just really, really ugly (my hubby says it looks like I tried to get a tattoo of a wizards hat but it got smeared) The cut on my food is a large open wound. That is the injury that is keeping me from working out. I am pretty sure that if I put on a tennis shoe it would just rip open and bleed. I am anxious for it to heal so I can get back to my exercise schedule!

Congratulations on losing the weight! Hopefully muscle you're building is part of what contributed to the weight gain. If so, it's only going to help you lose weight as you go along.
ReplyDeleteI hope your foot heals soon. Try a huge bandaid over it-- maybe that will keep it from ripping open (or do kickboxing barefoot, if that's all that's keeping you from it).
You're doing much better than me. I'm not a morning person and it's hard for me to exercise. I got halfway and got stuck. I'm cheering you on all the more. Go Michelle!
