Suffering

Well, the Fitness Fig has been suffering this week. I got the braces on last Thursday, as I said, and the pain got worse as the day went on. Then it got worse again over the weekend. Agony when I tried to eat fries on Saturday. Of course, I have no business eating fries anyway, if I want to lose more weight. Instead I had a strawberry milkshake.... OK, I probably have no business with that either, but at least it didn't hurt at all.

In addition to the pain (and the tiring painkillers, though I was completely med-free today), there's been a hideous heat wave. I have no air conditioning. So have I been working out? No. I'm not one to work out in 90-something degree/very humid weather. I'm a big baby that way. Plus I'm not eating normally so I don't want to push my body too much on this weird liquid diet.

OK, now that I'm done with those excuses, my plan for tomorrow is to try the yoga class that I keep thinking I'll try. No sunburn from today's dermatologist visit, so I should be o.k. Hopefully they'll have a/c at the yoga studio.
