Exercise Challenge! Go for the Gold!

[Boo 3]

Hi Susan! Hi everybody!!

Well, I have been on a doctor-ordered rest from running, which has driven me crazy...except for the fact that much of my pain has subsided.

The problem is that I have not figured out how to eat appropriately during a less active phase. It is nuts!

So I ran two miles. Light exercise just does not satisfy my aggressive needs. It does nothing to curb my appetite or lift my mood. I need to sweat and push myself past the point of comfort, to reach new levels. I need some competition. Nearly two years ago I celebrated a miracle at the completion of a two mile run. Now I feel like a failure for being cautious.

Exercise cannot be an all or nothing activity, but it feels like it should be to get the benefits.

How is everybody doing??
