This isn't a very interesting or necessary update but since it's been a few weeks I figured I'd say a little something in case anyone is reading and/or cares.
Well, I hurt my back just about 2 weeks ago & that has put a damper on my work out plans. I was actually in the midst of a workout when I hurt myself so even on the days when I've felt somewhat better I've been afraid to do much of anything because I don't want to hurt myself even worse.
On the "bright" side, I haven't had much appetite since I've hurt myself. I've even had days where I've been sick to my stomach with the pain & so I haven't fallen back on my old habit of trying to eat the pain away. I've actually lost nearly 10 lbs since the original injury so I've been pretty happy about that.
I really want to have the motivation to not only get back to working out (because I'm actually eating pretty healthy, not 100% of the time but I'm impressed & surprised by my self control lately) but also the motivation to get to a doctor (probably a chiropractor) and get my back fixed. But I'm not feeling ANY type of motivation when I roll out of bed, feel fine for the first 10-15 minutes then realize that my back ISN'T better and I spend the rest of the day prone on the couch, moving as slowly & cautiously as I can so that I don't send waves of pain throughout my body. Somehow I just haven't felt like getting on the phone to make an appointment (after finding a chiropractor first of course) and then figuring out who will stay with my girls while I go to said appointment. It all just sounds like too much effort & not worth the pain (literal & figurative) to get it done.
So there ya go. That's my update (or my whiny vent as it were). No progress in the working out department but I am seeing the numbers on the scale getting smaller, bit by bit. Here's to the next update being a little less whiny & a lot more positive!
