So, I weighed in this morning even though I said I wouldn't and I'm down three pounds. I am happy about it, but I am not posting it on my ticker yet. Here's the scoop on me:
- NO MORE BIRTH CONTROL! I have had one too many battles with that crazy stuff and I am done! So, don't be surprised if I post that I'm pregnant in the coming weeks. After all, my nick name is "Fertile Myrtle"
- No more long runs with you guys. This one I am kind of sad about, BUT the only real way to get rid of the pain in my foot, which is a neuroma, is a cortizone shot. I'm not that eager to put a needle in my foot right now. Running through the pain is what caused my pulled ligament, so I'm sticking to 3-4 miles on Saturdays. I'll still start out with you guys, but I'm gonna have to cut it short. I'll be ready with water and oranges when you guys return! =)
-I'm gonna start my ticker over from the weight I am today because I'm going to give myself a fresh start. All my ailments have been fixed and I know how far I can push myself without getting hurt so it is time to start over with a new attitude.
- For all who may be worried about me losing weight while pregnant...DON'T. My doctor is totally supportive and says it will be fine as long as I do it the right way. That means eating enough calories and staying within a certain heart rate when I exercise...no over doing it. I'm sure I'll be able to accomplish my goal as long as I stick to the advice he gives.
My goal is going to be the same as the first - 20lbs... I need to lose 20 lbs by end of March. It was originally the beginning, but seeing how far behind I am I have to change it.
February is looking better already!!
Awesome! Sorry to hear about the shot. My mom had to have them for quite some time and they are no fun. Congrats on the 3lbs though. I know you;ve been struggling. Hope things go better now that you know the issues at hand. We all know you can do it. Just keep the positive attitude!!!
