It did the exact opposite of what I needed. Even with the new sneakers, the discomfort is still there, but I can live with it.

(for me) It gives so much encouragement when you think out loud on your blog about a plan to bounce back and motivated me Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10165827645435533443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-59326473228583997192013-04-22T14:23:58.137-04:002013-04-22T14:23:58.137-04:00Is there someplace you could swim laps in a pool? ...Is there someplace you could swim laps in a pool?

But without the running, once again food rears its ugly head. Staying busy is important. I tend to go shopping to keep from eating. It works, but it is also way too expensive. I really should take your advice and do more house cleaning!<br /><br />dupsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18088114640385927198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-14902157373889569962013-04-22T11:28:20.420-04:002013-04-22T11:28:20.420-04:00If you never had a rough week or a downer post, yo...If you never had a rough week or a downer post, you wouldn't be relate-able anymore, so I know that I , personally, like to hear about it once in a while ;) Hope the easy run gets you out of your funk!Kelly Stokeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03905584561273190345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-81987529696685577952013-04-22T11:00:50.747-04:002013-04-22T11:00:50.747-04:00I appreciate how real you are...what you're ex...I appreciate how real you are...what you're experiencing right now is something we all can relate to and it is what makes you approachable and inspiring!
