*Starshine*'s Journal, 09 October 2013

Feeling fed up and sorry for myself today. A recurrent hip (muscle) problem has forced me to stop my morning runs -- temporarily, I hope, but it hurts like hell! Managed to walk my usual route a couple of days ago but too much pain now so have had to take a couple of days off. Clearly, much as I have been enjoying jogging 6 days a week for the last couple of months, it's been a bit too much too soon, and I don't want to make a minor injury into a major one. Usually, I can do alternate (low impact) days on our cross-trainer but we don't have that with us here. Such a shame. Just when I was really getting into running and seeing the dividends. Tried "You are your own gym" calisthenics instead today but it's just not the same. Absolutely dying to get back out there, so will try walking again tomorrow.

On top of this, got food-sabotaged by a hungry husband persuading me to go for a big juicy burger. Okay, it didn't take that much persuasion. There's nothing like pain to add to the allure of comforting fatty carbs. Tried to be good by only eating half my filled potato skins starter and leaving half the bun (the bit with the hidden mayo.)

Tried weighing myself when I got home but got a daft reading because I'd just eaten. Weighing-in tomorrow instead. Please let it not be so bad. After everything I've done so far, I really don't want it confirmed that not running for a couple of days and eating just one damned burger automatically = weight gain...

Don't be so hard on yourself! Just give your injury time to mend. You won't gain so quickly so don't worry. HUGS X
