I think I forgot to mention yesterday that I twisted my ankle in my up and down run. I kept moving and did not notice pain until much later in the day. By midday, I was hurting. I knew the procedures as this was not my first strain. So I came home, put my feet up, added an ice pack to my foot and started an antiflammatory pain med. This continued on into the evening and I slept with my foot elevated last night. Great, I thought so myself, I should be fine for tomorrow.
My alarm rang as it's usual time of 4:50 am and I gingerly rolled over. Boy were my abs hurting. My feet hit the floor and OH MY. Okay, maybe I would not be good for OBC today. I quickly sat and laid back down. I guess all the pain medicination was still making me sleepy as I did not wake back up until 7am.
Mid morning I called my instructor and left a message stating why I was not in attendance this morning. I also asked what form of cardio would work for the next two days. She quickly returned my call and wanted to make sure that I knew I only had a strain. After this discussion she was content that I was okay. Swimming will be the sport for me the next two days which I will enjoy. The pushing myself is what I am most worried about.
My six meals a day are becoming easier. I actually am starting to get hungry and can set a clock by my stomach. I can see why my healthy choice are so important. The days I add in my junk, I cannot perform as well. I am not enjoying some of the bad food I used to love. Hopefully I am making that turn.
Til tomorrow...
