UUUGGGGHHHH! Why?? I'm not fond of EITHER silver team member! They both annoy the crap out of me!!

Today- 3.3 mile run/walk, 15 minutes of arm strength training

Renewed....I hear ya! I didn't lose any weight last week. I'm sure a big part of that had to do with not being able to exercise, but none the less, my ticker didn't move. Congrats on acknowleging the problem and doing something about it! I'll be your support if you'll be mine. Let's get it together and finish this! I have managed to stay on track yesterday and so far today. Let's strive for a BIG weight loss next week!! I'll be praying for you on Monday. Will you be put under for this? Is it at the doctor's office or at the hospital?

Hi guys! My ankle feels much better today. I actually did a 2 mile walk on the treadmill today! YAY! It's good to be moving again! Renewed....I know it's gonna be hard, but take a rest girlie! You probably just overdid it! You don't want to risk an injury though, so take it easy for a couple of days. Feel better soon.

Hey guys! The doctor's office is closed today, so I didn't go. My ankle feels A LOT better today though. I even went to the gym and walked on the treadmill this morning. I'm still wearing my ankle wrap and it seems to be giving me a lot of support. I'm sooooo excited it is feeling better. My mom suggested that I soak it in hot water with epsom salt, so I did that last night. I'm not sure if that's why it's better today or not, but I'm gonna keep doing it. I can't run yet, but I'm gonna log my walk in the nike+ challenge. Hope everyone is having a great day!

I'm kinda regretting not having an x-ray done. It's even more bruised now than it was a few days ago. The swelling is continuing to go down, but I still have to be very careful when I'm walking. I'm debating on whether or not to go on to the doctor tomorrow...

Congrats MacMadame for completing the program!! That's wonderful!!

I don't think I could live where it's THAT cold, lol. It's supposed to get to down to 19 degrees here tonight and that is MAJOR cold here, lol. Heck, the 30's are major cold here! I sure can't imagine running in it! Kudos to ya'll...

Yikes! Sorry luluc. I hope it heals soon. I'm right there with you. I'm tired of watching from the sidelines.

LOL. A friend of mine said the same thing! Cool! I'll PM you my email address. When is the challenge starting?

WTG Kathy!! Ya'll are doing great!! I'm still watchin' from the sidelines :wink:

Sorry Mac! Hope it feels better soon.

Congrats Renewed! That's great! I love animals, so the mini farm sounds wonderful to me. I grew up with horses. I used to love riding them. Anyway, I'm so happy for ya'll! When will ya'll start building?

Welcome ninner! It really is a great program and this thread is filled with great support and motivation! Congrats on your success! Keep up the great work! The swelling has gone down quite a bit but it's still pretty bruised. My mom brought me a ankle wrap the other day. It feels pretty good when I wear that, but when I take it off it's a lot harder to walk. Originally, I was hoping to be running again by Friday...but I doubt it now .

Thanks luluc. It's getting a little better each day. I hope to be back on my feet soon.

I'm glad you posted that renewed because I forgot to update my ticker this morning. I lost 2 lbs. I was hoping for 5 this week. I did really good up until I sprained my ankle. I haven't eaten that good since and haven't exercised. I can't help but think I would have lost more if I had just ate good on Saturday and Sunday. Oh well...I'll take it. Renewed, good job girl!! I'm sure you gained some muscle from all the running. Keep up the good work!!

Okay, thanks Susan!

I don't see them anymore. Have they been moved or deleted?

Hey guys! My ankle is getting a little better each day. I can walk much better today. DH was calling me peg leg because of the way I was walking, lol. It's still swollen, but it's getting better. Hopefully it won't be too long before I can run again.

Thanks Susan. I thought maybe I was going crazy but I'm glad it's not just me, lol. Thanks again!

I went jogging outside yesterday and I twisted my ankle and fell. It's pretty swollen and sore, so I won't be doing much for a few days at least.

I wish I had a treadmill. I'm probably going to give it until MOnday, and if I still can't walk on it, I might have some xrays done. I thought about going to the ER but I'd be there for hours. Our ER has got to be the slowest on earth, lol. Hopefully it's just a bad sprain.

No, it wasn't icy. Just uneven. I was running around our apartment neighborhood and the pavement is a mess. Since the Y doesn't offer child watch on Saturdays, I knew I wouldn't get a run in if I didn't do it outside while DH was home for lunch because we had plans this evening. I'm such a clutz!

I guess I need to give up on running outside. When my DH got home for lunch today, I decided to run outside and I barely got to .25 miles and I fell! The pavement was uneven where I stepped and I twisted my ankle bad and fell on my knee when I hit the ground. My ankle is really swollen and turning blue. I'm probably going to be out of commission for a few days at least....UGH!!!!
