June 29, 2011 Diet Blog

So another pound down today, which is a relief. I've done something to my foot though. I have no idea what. I went to bed Wednesday night and it was fine. I woke up still fine, until I stood up after getting out of bed. The big toe meets the foot at the lower joint- that's where the pain is emanating from. It's severe. It got worse as the day went on. I have no clue what caused it. I went home, iced it and now am keeping it up and hoping for the best. Lord, its been a long day. Being in pain sux.
I do want to quickly speak to you about "the process of elimination" if you get my drift. Bowel movements- normal for me are everyday. On this diet, they are every two three days, smaller and little rock like texture. I know- I know TMI! TMI! Too MUCH Information!!! I understand, but I think if this is happening to my body, it may also happen to yours if you embark upon this diet. It's not 'tried and true.' I think its better if I document what's going on with my body as well as my heart and brain, that way we get a full spectrum of the features we must endure on our journey. That being documented- let's forge on...
Today was a day of embarrassment. Because I drink so much water I need to go to the bathroom. I hobbled all of the way back and forth having to explain the painful gimp to my concerned co-workers and friends. The problem is that I cannot explain it, so I just tell the story. AND what's worse than a Big Fat girl limping through the corridors of the courthouse? I could almost hear the people...'take off some weight and maybe your legs will be able to support you' type of thing. I hate calling any kind of attention to myself when I'm this heavy. I guess my self esteem is low. Rightfully so as I see myself in reflections of glass or mirrors as I hobble/waddle by. I just keep comforting myself...this TOO shall pass...
On that note I'll sign off for the evening. Tomorrow will be a better day. ;-)
