Its been a while since I've had a post so there are a few things I need to catch everyone up on. I lost 2 pounds this week, I weighed in this morning at 192 pounds. Most of my clothes are pretty baggy at this point, but I don't feel the need to be buying new ones quite yet. The baggy clothes are annoying, but I don't want to buy more clothes that will soon be too big for me to wear, that would be a waste.
I went to OSS (Orthopedic & Spine Specialists) for an appointment this past week. I got a anti-inflammatory injection in my right shoulder because the muscle there is in a constant state of spasm. It seems a little better now, but I still have to go for physical therapy to strengthen that muscle. And my knee was not fluid filled like originally thought, the cartilage in my knee has softened & is inflamed. I will be needing physical therapy for that as well to strengthen the muscles around the knee to take the pressure off of it.
I never thought I would have this many injuries while getting healthy, but when you let yourself go it wreaks havoc on your body. I think I have dealt with the injuries quite well up until this point. After I got home from the last appointment I felt bad for myself. I don't know why. But I made the conscious decision that I was only going to give myself a pity party for 5 minutes. It kind of worked. I just have to look at it in a positive way. That I am working on fixing my body, changing it into what I want it to be by changing my life style, exercising more and making better food choices. I never thought I would get this far and I'm certainly not going to let these injuries keep me back. I would have when I first started but not now. I want this so bad and I'm not going to let something so simple stand in my way.
My goal for this week as far as weight loss goes is 189 pounds. I have a goal set off 184 pounds by August 31st, and if I can lose those 3 pounds this week then I should be ahead or on track for my August goal. I'm hoping to beat that goal into a bloody pulp this month.
That's all for now, Thanks for reading!
