I hate my body right now. Mainly my right foot. The Plantar fasciitis is acting up again in a big way! Last night I hopped on the treadmill armed to do a great workout. During the warm-up I felt a pop in my heal and that was the end of that. I iced my foot and did an upper body workout while sitting in my chair.
Today I am feeling OK. Just OK. My heal is sore, it's best that I let it rest. I'm feeling sorry for myself right now. I need to exercise. Not just for the weight loss, but also for the depression. I find my mood is much improved after a workout. Doing smaller workouts such as the one I did last night, doesn't seem to boost the much-needed endorphins my brain needs.
That all being said, I decided to pick up a Yoga DVD today. I've done a little Yoga on the Wii. (just a side note that I love the Wii fit - if only my board would work consistently!). The pickin's were slim so I ended up going with Rodney Yee's Yoga for Beginners
. I watched a good chunk of the video before trying. Wanted to know what I was getting into before getting into it. :)

The instruction is fifteen minutes long. The time went fairly quick, even when I was feeling the burn. I'll add the Yoga to my routine, especially right now when I have very little choices in what I can actually do. I know how important it is for me to stay with some sort of routine. If I don't, I will not only get back into my old eating habits, but will probably also need to start back on the meds. Can't. Have. That.
