[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 166667, member: 3388"] Sharon, I'm glad you made it to the gym yesterday as I just finished reading the Good Morning thread and I know today is going to be extremely busy for you. Missing a Weight Watchers' meeting is ok - You're doing great!!! I agree with you - Being much more "exposed" during the summer is hopefully enough of an incentive to make me stay on track... I finally have some good news to report. I received my first dose of Dexamethasone (sp?) applied topically by my physical therapist yesterday morning. It takes about 20 minutes to get a small vial into your skin. It is only slightly uncomfortable while the medication is being applied - Just a slight burning sensation. It was almost peaceful being able to do nothing but "rest" for 20 minutes, lol!!! My physical therapist told me that I'm making really good progress. She gave me permission to start jogging at a slow pace during my morning walks. I can do a combination walk/jog, mostly still walking, but it's a start!!! I have to always remember to ice afterwards. I'M SO HAPPY!!! I know I have to be careful and not overdo it. Trinity, I'm definitely taking your advice!!! No matter how much I want to run, or at least jog more than a few minutes at a time, I WON'T. I know you told me that now is the time I'm especially vulnerable to hurting myself all over again. I NEVER WANT TO GO THRU THIS AGAIN!!! I'm still managing to maintain my weight. I still fit into my black dress and swimsuit. However, I'm really starting to feel flabby... I just don't like resistance bands... I have hand weights. I carry them while walking. It just isn't enough!!! I'm going to see if I can get my elliptical trainer fixed. I'm still taking time for myself. Emotionally, I'm feeling a bit better this week. With the kids home, I know it is especially important that I take care of my own needs as well as theirs. Well, not much else to report. I hope everyone is doing well. And, remember today is the first day of the rest of our lives - Make it a healthy one!!! WFEN [/QUOTE]
