My Left Foot - Not the Movie

My foot still hurts.  I went to the physio today.  I saw him a month ago for my left foot, and he told me to go back to my doctor and get orthodics.  Did I do any of those things....no.  I had the intention to do it.  My foot remained swollen but didn't hurt and I had so many other doctor appointments in the last month, I just couldn't be bothered with my foot.  But of course now the foot really bothers me.  So I show up, swallow crow and make him do a treatment on me as I told him "you couldn't make it worse".  And he didn't.  I think it actually feels a bit better.  Still sore and swollen, but I think a bit better.  Not sure if it really is or I am just wishing it is.

Well, eating today went a little sideways. On the good note, I drank all my water and I am making myself a beautiful veggie stirfry for supper as we speak.  I did have a bagel for breakfast and a small piece of spinach quiche for lunch.  But as Kelly said, baby steps and not as bad as fries and a burger.  Tomorrow is a new day and I will do better.

Didn't keep my promise last night to not snack - I ate crackers and cherries.  Crackers - I love them.

So, this will be my last post until next week.  My biggest challenge this week - going away for the long weekend, eating out, having fun.  But I feel good about it. I am going to make the best choices I can and just be as good as I can, but still enjoy myself.  I really want to see the results on the scale, and so far I have not seen it budge.  It can be discouraging.  But I am trying to focus on bigger picture, I know I am making healthier choices for myself and my family.  And by doing that, consistently, I know the pounds will start to come off.

Have a great long weekend ladies.  I will touch base on Monday!!!
