I know many of you have talked to me along the way about being frustrated the scale wasn't moving after so much hard work. This article has some great thoughts on how to measure your improvement.

Good timing for that subject. On monday I went to the orthopedic surgeon. Some of the side effects of the medication he gave me is that I will gain weight, be dizzy and basically not feel very good. I was thinking that maybe for the next few weeks I will just try to maintain my weight and look for those other good things that my body is doing. 3 more weeks of wearing a walking cast, 4 weeks of medication, 6 weeks I shouldn't have to worry about my foot anymore. :) Then I can worry about all the other developing problems. LOL
ReplyDeleteyay, for going to the doc.! good luck with the meds :( keep your head up and know that you have worked so hard and you can do this too. You will feel so much better after it is fixed AND then we can get together and do a race :)
