Radiant's Diary

Thanks, India! I try to keep it positive. I have been negative for FAR too much of my life, and it's not going to consume me anymore :)

I got my stitches taken out today and had my checkup. Everything is fine so far and I am calling in a few minutes to set up my physical therapy, which is starting with twice a week. I'm a little nervous.. but it'll all be okay!
 
Cals today 1785. Blech, but okay I guess as I went and shopped around the mall. I was in town for the second time in two weeks, yay! I start physical therapy next Monday and I am really looking forward to getting better.

I haven't been keeping up as well as I've wanted to! Grr, I'll get back to it.

Today was day one of physical therapy. My leg muscles are weak, and that's about all I got out of it. I have some leg exercises to do at home, so I have gotten them done for the day. I think it's just a matter of keeping with the program and hoping that it goes smoothly.

Food wise, I've been doing well lately. Haven't been keeping track like I used to, though. I will get on that too... dang I've been slacking.

However, I did weight in today and I am at exactly the same weight as I was the morning before I went for my surgery. I am happy that I haven't put anything back on.
 
Cals at 1560 today. Water wasn't quite enough, but I still have time to drink some more before bed!

Did absolutely nothing today.. I hate not being able to just go out and do things, I have to have a reason to leave my parent's house apparently, even though I'm 20 now. God I can't wait to perminately move out.
 
Hi Radiant!
How's physical therapy going? I hope you're starting to feel better.

I know how you feel about your parents, but they're probably just worried for you. After all you just went for your surgery and I bet they're scared you could hurt yourself.

It's going pretty well. I am doing my at home exercises most days because I only actually go two times a week. I still can't lift my leg straight up in the air. That seems to be my goal right now.

They aren't worried. I've never had a good relationship at all with my parents. They're probably rather annoyed to be honest.
 

hey sweety..looks like you are not feeling tooo good! you'll soon be better and your weight is back down. that's always good.

sori to hear things are down with your parents. its always annoying when you don't get on with people you live with. just concentrate on getting better.

hope you have/had a good day!

Heya angel, thanks for the kind words! Last night was annoying/fun. I was out with a bunch of my friends and we died their hair and did cuts and whatnot, saw a lot of people I haven't seen in ages, but my freaking mother kept calling off the hook. I finally turned my phone on silent. I don't know what part of, "I'll be home later" means "see you in thirty minutes." *Sigh*

Anyway, WEIGHT IS DOWN TODAY, YAY!!!

I just hope that it isn't because my muscle is going away... I haven't been using my free weights as much as I would like to. I have physical therapy again this afternoon so hopefully I'll be told that I can do more things :) *crosses fingers*
 
hey good job on getting out of the house and having a good time! parents can be very protective...lol!

congrats on the new lol!:hurray:

hope you get good news tomorrow!

Todays cals were 1858.. higher than I've been shooting for over break.

Did my physical therapy yesterday. Riding the bikes is REALLY funny because I go "normal" speed part of the way, then I have to go reeeaaaaaallllly slow when my knee is all bent up because it hurts, haha! I feel so COOL! Not a whole lot else going on.
 

great to hear you are enjoying therapy and it went well for you! the calories will come down..lol!

have a good weekend!

Chinese omggggg. Crab meat wontons, to be more specific. Hahah!


Todays cals were 1574. Didn't do much of anything except my at-home exercises for my knee. I move back into the dorms tomorrow. Whoohoo.
 
Cals 1517. Water 108 oz.

Went to the movies with some friends tonight. If you get scared anywhere as easily as I do, don't go see One Missed Call. Not fun :(
 
Oh, don't talk to me about chinese. I could eat a ton spring rolls.

I bet you're so happy about going back to your dorm! Living with the parents is hard if you're used to have your indipendence.
 
I haven't posted in a while. I guess that I just don't feel like I am doing very much anymore because of the whole knee thing.

Right now, I am on physical therapy three times a week, plus my at-home leg exercises. I haven't been keeping track of my calories as well as I should.. I've just been eating healthy.. and probably not enough. I'll start keeping track again tomorrow.
