I'm trying not to get too demoralized. Yesterday I was feeling so up, with my anniversary trip coming up and getting the phone call about a job I applied for 2 months ago.
Despite the three messages I left yesterday, I still haven't heard from the Director of Nursing that left me a message on Wednesday afternoon. I rushed around after I got home from work today, packing up for my trip this weekend. I always seem to wipe myself out getting ready to have fun.
Normally, today would have been a walking day. I usually look forward to it. Today, however, I was hurting more than I have in two months. It is either because of how brisk my walk on Wednesday was, or it was trying out a new exercise, Sumo Wrestler Squats, on Tuesday and Thursday night. I guess I better not do those any more. My history of back problems has led me to be very cautious of activities that lead to numbness and pain in my leg. That's what I'm feeling today.
If I want this weight loss journey to lead to a successful, permanent lifestyle change, I need to balance exercising neither too little nor too much. I was getting cocky and thinking I could up my game. I really was hopeful this time that things would be different and I could "cure" my back issues with a gradual work-up to a higher activity level. Please don't let this be the beginning of the end for my exercise regime. It has happened before and I don't want to see it happen again...

I hope you can find your exercise balance and keep moving as much as possible. However, even if you have to scale back you are doing well. I got too cocky myself, hurt my feet but after about a month and a half of rest I am ready to start building again. Good luck. J

20% work-out, 80% diet... stabilizing is better that going back up...

Don't stress about the job! It won't help! It's out of your control. Just hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Definitely some rest or reducing the intensity of exercise is in order! Don't worry! You will make it! I agree with puhpine. Stabilizing is important! Your pain will go away again, and you will be able to exercise, maybe not with the same intensity but still you can play with the length. My indoor cycling sessions are almost always very light but they have a huge impact on calories ;)

Thanks, everyone. You are all very wise and I just need to cool my jets. Sometimes it's hard, though, when there are always a few REALLY fit, motivated FS members describing their routines. In my defense, I did take it slow until I finally blew it with the Sumo Wrestler Squats. Seriously.bad.plan.
