Day 3 and 4


Starting to feel normal now which is a relief!

Got to the gym yesterday and did some weights and some interval training on the rower. Besides that nothing too exciting to report for Day 3.

Been having some really busy days hence my lack of post yesterday and combining the posts for Day 3 and Day 4.

Today I had a shipment of goods arrive that I had sent from Australia. Space is becoming an issue in my place at the moment and the arrival of 21 items (many boxes, bike, filing cabinet, cd cabinet, chest of drawers, air conditioner, etc) didn't help my stress levels.

Then my strength all came crashing around me when I had to move a broken microwave down the stairs. As I was lifting it the door of the microwave swung open and the glass plate came out and landed vertically right on my left toe! I don't think I need to describe it but there was a lot of blood and lots of swelling arrived not too soon after. It literally immobilised me.

I haven't experience pain like that for a while. I had no choice but to take pain killers (which I don't take if possible). As I lie on the lounge feeling sorry for myself, toe all black and blue, and at a loss as to where I was going to put my all the things that had just arrived . . . I caved in and had 2 things that I love and am not allowed at the moment - wine, cereal, and toast. LOL.

I have been extremely strict with my eating regime since Monday but today I tipped over the edge and the discipline went right out the window. I was starving and in such a bad mood that I couldn't even think about actually cooking myself something and cutting up a salad.

Anyway - tomorrow is another day and I'm sure after a good nights sleep I will be back on track again.

What is even more annoying is that I am meant to be in a boot camp session tomorrow morning but exercise is now restricted because of my injured toe.

I hope things get better tomorrow.

  1. Aww I hope your injury heals quickly :( injuries suck. But you're definitely right to let it rest a little while. I was in awful pain the last two days also. That coupled with work stress and I slipped up too! But as you say tomorrow is another day. No use dwelling on it. Hope you have a nice day... :)
