Goals and Obstacles

in Freewriters4 months ago

I remember the days when my stomach was flat, and when I slept eight hours a night without interruption. I remember when I had the energy to stay up late and still get up and do what I needed without losing strength.

I'm fortunate to still be able to maintain a healthy weight, but I fail miserably concerning exercise. I sit all day for work. Wintertime is upon us. Recently we have been besieged with bitter cold temperatures and snow storms.

My treadmill sits abandoned, accusing me. A year and a half ago I injured my ankle seriously while using it for an iFit session. For over a year, it would swell like a balloon with any walking. Finally, I received injections from a podiatrist that seemed to help the fall before this last, but to this day if I walk too much it swells. The injury was a torn tendon. I keep praying that it will heal completely. Meanwhile, the treadmill stares at me, accusing me across the room. I canceled the iFit membership when it was automatically renewed this month for the year. I should have canceled it last year.

I started to do some exercises to work in between phone calls again. Consistency is my aim.

It's a stay-home Friday. I'm alive and thriving. After work, I got my haircut.

I hope you all are enjoying your Friday!

That treadmill accused you? If you ask me it should be the other way round.

Do you need more injections? It might take way longer than expected but it will cure if you take that rest. Winters will not make that easier.

If it comes to stomachs... mine has never been flat.

Blessings to you

Good morning! I look at that treadmill across from my recliner and it mocks me :) lol
For the most part, the foot is ok. It swells after an extended period of walking.

I may end up visiting the podiatrist this summer if it will not calm down. I have learned that tendons are fussy.

Thank you so much for stopping by in the word of encouragement. Sending you blessings in return. ❤️🙌
