Day 64, 65 and likely through the end of the week

My eye has me down for the count. I ran around all day yesterday looking for an Ophthalmologist to take care of it. It was not a fun experience and its going to take at least a week before I can get seen and they can just examine me -not excise the damn thing.

It's really irritating me. It itches so badly some times and it obstructs my vision. Okay, pity party over.

I've been researching what I'm going to do once I'm healthy again. I'm thinking of joining a gym that does step aerobics. I love step. I found a chain that's across the street from my job and then again a few miles from my home. Gonna look into it when I'm healthy.

Day 63

Nothing today:-(

Here comes the whining: Eye itched all day. Fever came and went. Just laid low. Going to the Ophthalmologist tomorrow to see when I can get scheduled to get this thing removed so that I can get back on track. And on the track!

Day 62

Only got in a short walk along a trail today. The eye itched and the mild fever came to play. Hoping to go on a hike for a couple of miles tomorrow with the kids.

Day 61

Went into the Health Clinic to finally get my eye looked at. It looks like I've been beat up, doesn't it! No, just sebaceous fluid trapped under my eyelid with not way out.

I'm on antibiotics. I'm a bit feverish, but I think I can still get some low impact work outs in this week. They say chalazions, which is what's going on with my eye, flare up due to stress. I'm sure its bad when you're stressed and don't realize that you're stressed. I'll aim for some yoga sessions this week.

Day 60

I've had this thing on my eye called a Chalazion for four weeks now. It's basically a pimple on my eyelid. It's gone down some, but its still pretty big. It started itching the past day or two and now I'm feeling feverish on one side of my face. I was trying to home remedy it, but gonna head into the clinic tomorrow morning.

Day 59

I didn't get any exercising done today.
And my food intake wasn't the best:( I stopped at a drive thru.
Then I ate two servings of potato chips.
Then I had a handful of chocolates.

No excuses. This is my space for accountability.

I'm going to look into Cross Fit. I recognize that I work best when I'm in a group setting and have other people checking me.

Day 57 & 58

Day 57
Tuesdays are always hard. I get up Mondays invigorated! But then Tuesday rolls around and I have a million and two errands to run with my kids. I can't get any work out in and then I feel guilty, even though I know I'm not going to be able to get a work out in.

Day 58
Then Wednesday shows up while I'm still feeling guilty about Tuesday and I inevitably ask myself "What's the point?" Plus I stepped on the scale and it said something mean to me. I'm so upset that it was mean because I've been doing a very good job with my calorie budget. I might be periodic. I don't know, I don't keep track anymore in my advanced age;-)

The weird (good?) thing is, that I'd been feeling fly the past couple of days. I wore a couple of outfits that were form fitting. I was digging my curves. But then that stupid scale!

At the very least, I will go for a walk.
