Pain problems

I only posted through Tuesday last week.  I think it is because I made terrible choices that I didn't want to fess up to on here.  I was afraid of admitting my failure.  But that is one of the reasons I have a blog to write in, so I can be held accountable.  I am going to make it my goal to write in this blog even if I've had a bad day, week, etc.

My weigh in Thursday was a bust.  I was really disappointed because I felt like I had done better than the week before.  But when I look at the blog, I stopped writing on Tuesday, so Wednesday and Thursday weren't good days.  I gained a pound, and I just have to admit that I deserved the gain.  I keep finding myself saying, "this is the last time I ____"  Usually it revolves around going out and getting something terrible to eat.  No more this is the last time!

I got 2 bondibands in the mail on Friday.  I was so excited!  I sweat all of the time, and when I work out it is almost unbearable.  We left Friday night to go out of town, and didn't get back until Sunday night, so I haven't used them yet. 

I really wanted to get some exercising in starting today.  That is definitely not going to happen today.  Yesterday on the drive home, I started having some really bad pain in my back.  It just got progressively worse.  After finally getting home, I ended up lying down.  I was still in so much pain.  I was sobbing my back hurt so bad.  It felt like there was a sword piercing through my shoulder blades, and whenever I moved, I felt like the sword was twisting.  Scott did all he could, but nothing was helping.  I woke up this morning still in a ton of pain.  I called clinical and told them I wouldn't be able to make it.  I eventually went to the Medexpress/University Health Center on the campus of my school because it is cheap for students.  They gave me a shot of toradol, prescribed me a muscle relaxer and some other kind of medication for pain, and told me not to go back to work until tomorrow.  I took the muscle relaxer when I got home and passed out.  Thankfully shot of toradol worked, so I was able to get some better sleep than I did last night.  I'm still in quite a bit of pain right now.  Hopefully tomorrow I feel quite a bit better so I can go to school and clinical.

I am still working on making rewards for goals I meet...I'll post them when I figure them out!
