I've been getting active again this week. Just low-impact walking and hiking but it feels good to get back at it. I've hiked the Canyon View trail twice this week, and gone for one or two walks a day!
My eating has been better than it was last week and I am trying to feel positive about that but its hard. I can't say I'm 100% back on my game because I'm not sure what my game-plan will be yet. What I am doing right now is eating my maintenance calories, but not all my exercise calories. I really just wanted to give myself a mental break and gain control over my food again.
I finally got an answer from my Doctor about my hip and I have bursitis. He said it should be better in 6-8 weeks, which means I have 3-5 weeks before I can try running on it. The good news is that he encouraged low-impact exercise so my walking and hiking is good and I'm hoping to go to the gym a few times to use the bike and elliptical.
I keep thinking of that song from High School Musical about "Get your Head in the Game". ;) I know you are there and these injuries are temporary setbacks. You can and will overcome! I look forward to continuing this journey WITH you!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. I may be coasting at the moment, but I have not lost sight of my goals. I will be back in the game within the next 5 weeks!!
DeleteYou will get through this!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I know I will this time. I guess I'm just saving up some mental energy! lol
