I thought I would share what finally got me off my butt, yet again. Last night, while I was lying in bed trying to go to sleep, I noticed a sort of numbness running down the outside of my left leg to my pinky toe. I've been having issues with a pinched nerve on that leg, which I believe is directly related to a certain pair of shoes I own.
(Innocently comfy looking shoes, but every time I wear them, I get the pinched nerve thing for a bit. So, I don't think I have to tell you, the shoes are outta here. Which is fine, because I probably bought them at the devil (a.k.a. walmart) anyway. We boycotted the devil about 3 years ago or so, and I don't miss it. I've gone in there with my sister and mom every now and then, but it's always so awful.)
So then I'm laying there finding the position that doesn't make the pinched nerve act up, and then I notice the belly...oh dear lord, the belly. I'm so WAY outta shape, it's ridiculous. I used to keep some tone and feel fairly good about me, but that went down the tubes somewhere along the way.
It took some thought, but I think almost daily workouts stopped when I bruised my Achilles tendon this fall. My bike chain slipped (we later found that several links were cracked), and the pedal cracked me in the back of the ankle a few times before I got stopped. (of course this happened on a downhill) I was limping and hurting for almost 3 months. :o(
So anyway, I'm back on it. And I need all of you to help keep me accountable, so I won't stop. Thanks!
