Day Three

The first thing that I can say about my journey today is OUCH!!!!!!

When I woke up, my entire lower unit was hurting. Not muscle pain alone, just pain. My feet hurt in places feet shouldn't hurt! My legs hurt and my HIPS hurt! Every move has been painful and uncomfortable and sitting doesn't relieve the pain in my feet.

I had thought I would experience this discomfort yesterday, but I was fine! I guess today my body is making up for it.

I learned a couple good lessons:

Lesson #1- Even though you are walking, STRETCH! Had I stretched a little before taking off, I would probably not have quite as much pain in my legs and hips.

Lesson#2- GOOD SHOES are a must. I walk along a gravel road with lots of rocks. I need shoes that are much thicker in the sole and support my feet better. I will begin shopping for a new pair of shoes that will allow my feet comfort.

Lesson#3-Anything worth having is not always comfortable and easy to obtain.

At this moment I would love to forget all about my desire to lose weight and crawl into bed, never to torment my poor piggies to such painful excerise, but I won't. Bad shoes, sore lower unit, I am heading out for the walk today. I will stretch first and I will cut it down a little, but I will walk.
