It’s been a while since I’ve been here. I have to be honest, I got fed up. But, I needed some refreshing to get my mind focused on my health again. Weight loss has slowed significantly, due to a lot of physical stress and holiday preparations. One year I’m going to refuse to do anything for the holidays and let everyone else do it all!!! Just how I feel at the moment. Anyway, haven’t been able to workout either (the pits!!!) been over a month now and I feel very weak, it’s gross. All those weights I’ve done just went out the door. ☹️ Past injuries keep creeping their ugly heads up and it puts a stall on my being able to work out. I’m not worried about my diet, it’s still good. Just wish I can get my body stronger now. Sounds like a lot of complaining but it is what it is now.
Anyone deal with extensor tendinitis in the foot? Extremely painful...that’s what’s keeping me from moving forward workout wise. I hate it. And a stupid past shoulder injury that won’t let me lift properly. 😡

@Lenore Cumberbatch PearsonI can, and will probably have to. I am supposed to be doing it for hip bursitis as well. I am too young for all of this! Problem is, I don’t like pt. Seems like it hurts worse then before, I guess being consistent pays off.

I am sorry that you are not feeling well and have been discouraged. You are such an encourager. My Dr does not want me to exercise beyond walking until I have lost more weight. Do you have access to a pool? There are water zumba classes and a lot of other aquatic classes here. Even walking in the water can build strength due to the resistance of the water without causing further injury. I would definitely get your Dr's ok first. The physical therapist can probable recommend physical activities that won't flair up your conditions. I hope you feel better! I always look forward to your posts.

@Newme17 Have you tried doing stretches to get your mobility up? My ankle always creeps up on me but I use an ankle brace on heavy leg days and cardio. I also stretch it out everyday before a workout. I do a lot of mobility stretching everyday. It helps a lot. I hope you are feeling better now.
