Will I ever be the same again?

Okay, since my accident, exercise has been pretty much slim pickens'. As I stated in my earlier post, my knee has really flared up again. So I go to my therapist today for my PT, and they took it easy on me because I had a lot of swelling. They ordered me off my knee all weekend.

 

I wish I could exercise. I'm ready to start another BFL challenge, I know I can do wonders with another challenge. I really miss exercise. I feel like my life is in limbo, I know I can shed these last 20 lbs if I could only kick some butt at the gym. Its just so frustrating. I keep having setbacks with this darn knee.

 

I'm wondering if this is going to be a life long challenge for me, will I ever be able exercise? Will I ever be the same again? I'm ready to do some dumbbell lunges, to work my booty, I'm ready to do some squats, some hard core cardio, I'm ready to sweat. I just feel so much better about myself when I have exercised.

 

Okay, just venting today. Sorry if anyone reads and It such a downer. I am just discouraged about my set back. grrrrr.

 

Okay, todays menu:

 

Bfast - had some iced coffee from McD's. Just wasn't hungry after drinking it.

 

Lunch - ate a breakfast burrito, without the flour tortia. Just the eggs out of it, good.

 

Dinner - grilled chicken (3 oz or less probably) and salad

 

Suppliments - Quickslim 30, 2 flinstones.

 

Exercise - not much, did only 10 min on recumbant bike. Taking it easy to help the knee heal.

Can you do some of the chair excerises. They have video out with them. It might help and keep the weight off your knee.
