MJ - I haven't decided yet about the surgery. This past summer I went to a different doctor. He was able to pad and wrap my foot a different way that allowed me to work with little pain. Of course, my walking was very limited, but - I got through. I know that eventually I will need to do the surgery - just trying to figure out when or even if the new doctor thinks I can find a way to live without pain or surgery. It's hard to face surgery when the pain is minimal. However - my getting around and doing regular things is minimal too. I saved my "foot" for working this summer. *** Glug, glug -I'll drink lots of water.
Lottie - I remember TOM - I am in my fifties. Now I have my own 'personal summer".
Glad you got thru it.
CF mama - I am so glad to hear you got thru your day with no nibbles and on plan. Great - you are heading in the right direction once again.
Welcome shadowclaw - accountability is so helpful for some folks. Glad you are joining in. It's tough to work around food you like. It might sound silly - but, can you picture the pizza with something nasty on it. Really, close your eyes and concentrate. It works for some folks.
Slash - good for you - heading back into the spinning class even though it kicked your butt.
Remember - walking counts as exercise too. Thanks for the nice welcome.
Schmoodle - good for you...getting here with little time to write down your plan. I think it's those little things that add up and help us get our groove back.
Have a GREAT day.
