Way to go YODA!

I know how you feel with the prices at the GAP. Mom in law sent me a pair of dress pants and "guessed" at the size. I took them in for a refund (bought at Penningtons in the plus sizes). I was SO EXCITED!

I have a specialist appt after Christmas and I want to have lost even more to show him that it was a good choice. Have a great week!

But I really, really, think you should have bought those pants. *wink;)

Hmmmm I'm sure you do Cloe....I'm sure you do!!! But I have other nice stuff!!! *winka winka* :eek:

Hmmmmmmmm okay....I think I have to admit to myself that I might have buggered up my knee 10 days ago. Right after one of my workouts (two Tuesdays ago) when I got off the elliptical machine I took a few steps and got an odd painful spasm in my knee. I thought it was just like a "crink" ya know...and had to work it out....then over the next serveral days it would get a sharp stabbing pain when I moved it a certain way (but the pain wasn't constant....just sometimes when I moved it or bent it.....). So, I haven't worked out in 10 days (on purpose because of this) and I made a doctors appt. (but it isn't until 15 Dec) to have it checked out. Wellllllll, today after work I did a bit of shovelling (omigawd, we went from nothing to about 30-40 cm of snow today....*sigh*) and after I came in the house my knee started to hurt continuously....(ie. not just sporadically)....and I'm limping now. So, I don't think I can stay in denial any longer....I will go see the doctor tomorrow (squeeze in) and see what the up is.....cause something is buggered for sure.

I don't get it.....I have been using the elliptical for several months....it's not like I was new at it....ya know?

Anyways......hopefully all is well because it sucks not having been able to work out for the last 10 days.

DAMN %!#%^%%$&^&*^ snow!!

uh oh Yoda.... that's not good. Let me know what he says... and ask him why my knees have started to make a crunching sound when I bend 'em. *gag*

UPDATE:

Okay....so I woke up this morning and the constant pain in my knee was gone...(back to the sporadic) so I'm back in denial now! I'm not going to see the Doc today (I'm sure much to Mr Yoda's dismay); I will wait to see my regular doc at my appt on the 15th. Really though.....no use going if the pain isn't there when I go......!!!

Just happy it is gone.

GO FIND OUT!

To be honest with you my knees are kinda screwed up right now too. I was going to talk to my doc in Jan.

Do you think that maybe because we can't eat a whole lotta food that maybe we are lacking some kinda Vitamin for ligaments or cartlidge or something. Don't you think tht it should have been alot worse when we had soooo much more weight on????

Be careful, and take care!!! Let us know what doc says!

I hear what you are saying Cloe, my back pain got worse after i lost weight, here i am thinking it is going to get better and instead it gets worse, what the hell is up with that.

Don't wait too long to see the doctor Yoda, mister Yoda is right you know you should still go and get it checked now. Take care.

Hmmm, ya'll are funny. Okay, I did end up going and it turns out that it is probably a small tear in my cartilage (it should heal on its own over time)...I was given some prescription anti-inflammatories/pain killers to take. The only things is (DAMMMMIT) that I can't do any impact exercise......(&^$$#$#%^%$^$$# I realllllllllllllllllllly need to do exercise..........without it I won't lose.

*sigh*.

I know I know....I have to let it get better but it SUX.

Mr. Cloe says he has the answer. Excersize without using your knees, that is.

..........................need I say more.

There all freak'n the same, no?

Hmmm Yoda, torn cartilage does not repair itself. It may feel better after a while because the inflammation may subside but once a tear always a tear. I don't understand why Docs don't tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth!!!!! The good news is that I have torn cartilage in my knee and it hasn't bothered me in years. Don't despair, your knee could get back to doing all the activities you were doing without pain and without intervention.

Tks Wheezy!!! (I think!) LOL

Yes, Cloe....they're all the same in that respect!!!:nervous
