Pity party over–and yes, you guys made me cry
Its true–I was so down and out yesteriday. So, this morning I came back and was reading the comments that you guys left. By the time I finished, I have tears rolling down my face. It seems like you guys have so much faith in me even when my own faith faultered. After I wrote it and got all those feelings out, later I was able to understand I was having a pity party. I’m so thankful for you guys–you give me such hope! You keep me sane and on track. You guys are the best buddies a girl can have–thank you, thank you sooo very much. (sniff sniff)
Quite frankly, part of it was dissappointment. Finally found something in the way of exercise that got me fired up with determination to do, then my knee got hurt. However, logically, I know I can start again after it heals. I know that hurting my knee was a possiblity as it never healed fully from my fall at the first of the year. However, I expected it to be from the jogging-not my dog. So, I’ve been keeping it elevated—using frozen veggies as an icepack. I’m hobbling around–trying to keep as much pressure off of it as possible. Time, it all takes time.
Despite my grouchiness, if it had to get hurt–I guess this is the time to do it. 30’s this morning! Brrr. 40’s yesteriday and a few minutes of sleet mixed with rain. I’m not ready for winter.
Now, at least this is a wake up call for me. Like I said, quite a bit of the gain came before I came across my new program. However, like I said the other day–trying to do it my way and a little bit of the programs way–is not gonna cut it. I’m gonna be doing some writing and planning and i’m gonna stick to it. If others can lose weight while being sick or injured or recovering from surgery–so can I!
Ok guys–off to get some breakfast…happy halloween!
I got such a kick out of this that I posted it in the forum…gotta post it here too lol:

You go girl. Dust yourself off and keep it up!
I didn’t read a lot of blogs yesterday, sorry I missed it. I’m glad you are doing better today!
I just KNEW there was a reason Halloween is one of my favorite holidays! That list cracked me up! LOVE IT! I am so glad you are feeling better today!!
Glad you are feeling better!!
You are an awesome team mate and we can do this!!
GO ELEMENTS!
I am glad you are feeling better as well. I know you were just going through a tough time but you can pull through anything. Just watch your calorie intake to compensate for the lack of exercise. You can do this Debra! Keep your head in the game.
Sorry you were hurt and down, you sound much better today, watch that knee. I can tell I will have to work hard just to keep up with you, but we can rehab our knees together. Keep with the program, I have faith that it will work for us, it will just take a little longer since we won’t be getting much exercise in. Try working on your arms and core—don’t need to bend the knee for that and it all burns calories. Good luck.
Thats the girl I know & love
You know there are going to be down moments….good moments..and some things right in the middle but you keep on going EVEN when you want to give up.
