yesterday was a crappy day

It started out like any other day.. I had a dr. appt. in the morning and found that I am now 268lbs. (42 lbs) That part was great..

Then I got home and found my very large dog, Otis, had fallen down while I was gone and I thought he had broken his hip or leg. He is 120lbs and I am not allowed to lift more then 10lbs. right now. I was kinda freaked out wondering how the fuck I was going to carry him to the car and get him to the vet without Keith here. I figured it out and got him there. She didn't think he broke anything but said he did sprain his right knee and left hip.. He has to be on anti inflammatory meds for the next 5 days. He is walking a bit today so, I guess he is feeling a bit better. It was very scary though!!

Then I went to a support group meeting last night. Sad thing is, it was for patients that are more then 2 years post op.. I was really lost at the meeting because nothing pertained to me at all! Oh well, a meeting is a meeting I guess.. I just wish they would have one soon for patients that recently had surgery.. I think the next meeting is June 1st.

I also went to the gym today and worked out with Nick. I think he hates me! He punished me in the gym and I am really sore right now. I am going to workout with him again tomorrow morning. I can say that since I have been going to the gym 3 times a week, I really do feel stronger and healthier..

On a sad note, I am craving cigarettes again all of a sudden. I'm not sure why. I haven't smoked since I quit in march and I even stopped craving it. It just started a couple days ago though and I am back to the cravings and dreaming about smoking. I hope it goes away soon!  Since I have been out and about more lately, I wonder if it's because I have crossed paths with people smoking??

  1. Sorry about your dog, i hope he's doing better, and way to go with the gym, I've been wanting to go to the gym to go swimming but i'm still feeling like crap, all stuffy and mucusy and everything its pretty gross.
    Hopefully i'll feel up to it this weekend though cause weekends we're allowed to take kids to their outdoor pool, so me and my mother in law were gonna take my 9 year old stepson, he's been wanting to go so bad since we heard they were opening a family pool at the gym. oh and sorry about your cig cravings, thats gotta suck, hopefully that gets better over time.
