It's been a while.

*waving* Hi everyone. It has been a while since I have been on here. How is everyone? How is life been treating you? I hope things are going well for you all. I have been doing ok. I injured my good knee about 4 months ago running which has really affected my running and workout. I had surgery on that knee about a month ago to repair my torn meniscus. Recovery has not been going to well but it's my own fault. I started working out and doing too much to fast. *sigh* Needless to say, the half marathon I was supposed to run next month will not be happening at least until next year some time. I am really bummed by this. Really bummed. I have gained about 8 pounds over the last several months. I swear I almost had a panic attack about this a few times. I go back to the doctor in three weeks. Hopefully, I will be cleared to start working out like I used to. I am determined to get back on track with this.

Sorry to hear about your knee and your setbacks with exercise! Definitely take this time to heal up. If you want to be running that half marathon next year, you have to make sure you are doing everything you can to get better now.

I know the weight loss has been a struggle for you and I imagine that not being able to work out is making it that much harder. Just focus on your healing and taking care of your body.

@@Essence46, Welcome back! Sorry to hear about your injury. Hoping you're cleared soon.

I can definately relate to how it feels when you gain weight. At least you are prepared to do what it takes to get back on track.
