My knees are getting better thanks to the chiropractor and a massage therapist. Although, I just noticed bruises all over my body from the massage therapist...oh well. It was intense.
Today was my first day back in the gym since last Tuesday. Mike and I worked primarily upper body. I'm a wimp. I have no upper body strength. This makes me really mad. What makes me even more mad is the fact that I feel like I'm not working as hard because of my knees. I don't want to have to baby anything along. I want to go as hard as I can everytime I'm in the gym. I'm this way in most aspects of my life. It's an A or an F. If I can't give 200% then I get an F which is not acceptable. EVER!
On a lighter note...
I'm watching Biggest Loser. I really hope Mike doesn't watch this show. There are things the trainers have contestants do that I know he would think are "fun". They look terrifying to me. However, these people have lost a lot of weight. A lot of them over or close to 100 pounds. I want sooooo badly to do that!!! I think this is why I'm so mad at my knee...I just want to do it....I want it soooo bad.
You'll get there - I know you will! Remember, the Biggest Loser contestants eat, sleep and breathe weight loss 24/7. When they are thrown back into their daily lives, things get more complicated and the weight loss slows down to a more normal pace. Be patient and positive. I'm eagerly reading your blog entries and following your progress!
