The scale jumped.

Over the last two months I haven’t been very active as a result of my injuries from the car accident. I have sensed that my waistline has been gradually increasing over this period. Yesterday, I stepped on the scale for the first time and saw a shocking number. In two months I have gained 13 pounds. I can seriously see one of those quick weight loss diets if this continues! I don’t tend to gain weight very easily but all of this sitting around and doing nothing has apparently changed that. It will be at least another two weeks before I can start getting any type of regular exercise. The doctor has extended the time that I have to wear this boot for two more weeks. I really want to be able to at the very least be able to ride bikes with my kids by the end of the summer. That seems like a realistic goal but you never know. Just when I think I have this healing thing figured out there seems to be a new kink in the works.
