Reality Check
This past Saturday I wore this skirt ......
and it was tight, not tight like,"doesn't that look nicely fitted" but tight like,
"oh, my goodness I don't know if I can sit down in this skirt!"
Nevermind that I wore this same skirt just last Sunday and it was fine!?!
Today I started walking/running again!
3 miles in 44.43minutes!

My new look!

I may look odd, but this is a wonder bag of ice.
After my Physical Therapy they strap this huge bag of ice to my shoulder. I left it there for about an hour (went to eat lunch with it). Then I took a couple of Advil. Today (the day after) my shoulder feels fine! We, the PTist and I were both predicting that today I would be in alot of pain......NOPE! Thank you wonder bag of ice!
I'm impressed that in just a week, my shoulder has come along way!

Alright this is a bummer!
I have to admit that YES, working out makes me feel better BUT it's also great wear and tear on my body.
Over this summer my left shoulder has slowly stopped moving. I continued to work it out, until recently. It's still strong. It's just getting more and more unmoveable!
I went to the doctor the first of September. He said I had impegment and all I needed some Physical Therapy.
Since I was working out already, and I was super busy running back and forth, running like crazy. I didn't go for PT.
Now, it's no longer just impingement it's the next level, something capsulise. and PT 2 times a week for 6 weeks!
OH and an cortisone shot.
No more strengthen my arm, only stretching it!
He's not sure there isn't some sort of tear, BUT my arm is still strong so there is a good chance it just doesn't want to move. Even if there is something that requires surgery, I still have to have PT before he could even do surgery.

Back at it!
I want to walk a half marathon in the spring,
so I've found a plan to get me there.
It's a 14 week plan all set up!
Today I didn't think I was ready to start quite
where the plan starts (4miles)
so I'm working on pre plan.
Today I walked 3 miles in about 45+ minutes
(I had to go to the bathroom in the middle so
the time got off, but I watched the miles)
I weight this morning at the gym and I was 181!
That's just too much, gained!

I'm back.....
This morning I decided it was time to give working out a priority again. Well, actually there is this mind game that I play ...... my scales have broken at home, I've been eating whatever I wanted to (which is really different than what I would eat a year ago. Yes, there has been some learning going on), no excerise.... which leads me to look at myself and see FAT. I think I'm gaining weight. Which is good in some ways, I'm not a skinny person so I still need to see my FAT so I'll continue with my workout/health journey.
This morning when I worked out I still weighted the same 175 that I've weighted all summer! Plus 1
I worked out for an hour (walked for 20 minutes and ran on the elliptical for 40 minutes aka 5k)and it felt good! Plus 1
