Gains and Loses

Well  it's been a month since the marathon and I've gained weight, going from burning endless calories a day to nothing. Last week I started doing the eliptical pretty hard and it feels great, yesterday  added the tredmill and upped my workout to an hour. So today I ran for 10 minutes it felt awesome but I didn't want to over do it, so I walked the rest of the time.
 Best workout I've done in a month! my knees are a little sore but I wont run again for a while so I don't over do it. I'm feeling sluggish with the meds and the added weight gain bums me out but working out makes me feel so much better.
Hopefully I'll be running again soon but I need to be grateful to be doing anything!
As for the lose,  the black toe ( the pressure from running makes the blood collect under the toenail & kills it unless you release it ..ie a needle) I got from the marathon, just lost it's nail today looks funky I've never lost a toenail before, it should be grown back in 6 to 9 months hopefully before summer!  As for now I'm happy it's cold and nobody can see it! and back to eating better and knock out the excess carbs! and whipping my butt in shape!

  1. Man I wish I had your umf. I still haven't done a single thing since Halloween. And have put on weight and inches.
