I loved hearing all about your numbers after my random post. I'm still catching up on commenting on your blogs so please hang in there. I really hate it when people don't respond so I'm doing my best to visit all of you.
After work on Monday I paid another visit to my geriatric doctor and my foot is not as great as I thought it was. It also ended in being pitched $750 custom orthotics. Um...don't Manolos and Jimmy Choos cost around that much?? I'm doing some research to see if I really need these things or if I can hobble around for a bit longer. I work in the pharma industry and I know a sales pitch when I see one but I'm still confused. I think I may have been suckered into the idea though. Being an adult is fun, right? Anyhoo, puppy and I took a walk in the open space once I finished working from home a bit more.
Moving on...I've been eating stuff like salads and veggies. I know it's not a big deal since the other 3,000 blogs you read have pages and pages of veggies but I have found myself in a slump and I'm finally coming out of it. Along with not posting regularly I allowed myself to get a bit lazy and only ate carrots and snap peas for my veggie intake for what felt like weeks. Boooooring!
Monday's salad:
Wednesday's packed lunch:
The thing on the right is a puff pastry filled with cheese. My mom made it and we got to take home leftovers. It's beyond amazing and I get to eat it after I scarf down all my veggies. I love balance.
Also helping me balance things out this week is getting to sleep on time so I can get to work earlier and get shiz done. I've received a bit of a promotion and my workload is out of control lately so getting in before the email gets scary has helped me get some focused time in. I pack my lunch, make breakfast, and pick my clothes the night before when I leave early so that I don't wake the whole house and actually make my train.
Tonight's breakfast prep included waffles. I love my waffle maker so very much. I'm still working on getting the shape right ;)
Well kids, I'm off to shower after the gym and get to bed.
Do you have any experience with orthotics (fancy, I know). Would you get them if they would help you walk/run pain-free?
