Stupid Infection
Tuesday, May 14, 2013
I had a thigh and butt lift. Loose skin after massive weight loss sort of sucks. I have been so off track since then. It was only walking the first three weeks. I got the okay to start running again a few weeks ago, but at the same time I had a few stitches redone that ripped at work. Then I got a surgical site infection. I took the antibiotics, but the redness never fully cleared up. My energy has been low since then. I did some yoga, and a few short runs... but I just couldn't get in the groove. My eating has not been stellar either. This last weekend, infection relapse with 101 temperature, headache, swelling,..... Maybe that is why my energy has been low? So after getting fluid drained out of my hip, I was given more antibiotics...14 days instead of 7.... hopefully this does the trick. I need to get back in shape. I've gained a few pounds. I am not feeling so good about my body right now. Things are soft. I want that start of a six pack line back on my stomach. I like when things feel solid... I want to go running and have three miles feeling effortless. I am clean eating the rest of the week, and as soon as I feel good, I will be out running again.
