I'm horrible at blogging

Two weeks have passed since the last time I posted a blog and a lot has changed.  I have kept up pretty decently with my workout however last week I went out to eat WAY to many times.  This week I am trying hard to get back into my good eating habits.   Last Friday I was finally able to say "goodbye" to my boot.  I have had that damn thing on for 4 months now and I was so very glad to see it hit the road.   It feels so incredibly weird to drive right footed again, to put two shoes on, and to walk normally.  While at the Doctor they suggested that I go to physical therapy, so without any hesitation I decided to schedule my first appointment asap.

On Sunday I decided to really test out my foot and see what it could handle.  I started out by walking on the treadmill. I walked for half a mile then upped the incline, every quarter of a mile thereafter I upped the incline.  I ended up walking for about 45 minutes and got 2 miles in.  Afterwards I felt great.  I had some soreness, but no real pain.  Since I felt good I did a few weights for my arms then called it a day.  On Monday I had my first PT appointment so I didn't do any other exercising besides that. I want to take it easy on my PT days, the last thing I want to do is screw up my foot and the healing process.

I have decided that as long as my foot cooperates I WILL run a half marathon on December 7, 2014.  It is here in San Antonio so I am quite excited.

Well that's all for now,  hopefully my next update will say my workouts have intensified and my eating is back on track!
