I'v always had gym membership but due to my feet/ankles/lower legs, I normally walk the outter but inner walls of Wal mart store w/o buying anything. throught that I could at least do exercise in pool.I so need to lose my pot belly. anywho. I must have over worked my legs. As I exit the jump I had slip n fall. my ankels gave out.occassionally my feet will not move when I take a step, the foot rolls or flops n twist the ankle. I cracked my tail bone.Even though my Brother is an atty. I'm not going to lie n sue the gym. It is a health problem that I have. anywhoo just as soon as I'm healed, I will resume working out at gym in the pool. working out in pool seem to work on my needs.

yesterday my freind insisted that I go to Wal mart w him. he helped me in & out of car.
I had him to buy me a bed pillow to use on mobil cart seat.Thank God Wal mart has mobil chairs.
I rode mobil chair all the way thur parking lot, to my car,LOL, due to pain med I must have appeared like a drunk person,lol
My brother who home bases is in Ky is going to handle any legal matters, if any, regarding the gym. i really don't want to sue but he said the same thing that they should cover medical bills.
I stopped takeing pain med because it knocks me 100% out.My support buddy had to stand by bth rm door to keep me from going bk to sleep while I sat on toilet,lol
Plus I googled med. it is a nar - cod-tic. I thank God that I had stopped takeing it.
I need to get good ankle supports. I have feet braces, which are liken to sock w steal bar on bottom of foot n arch support. It is too hard for me to get brace off by myself, inpart because my feet n ankels often slightly swell.I don't eat table salt n I buy foods that have low or no salt.
Will Iv set too long on pillow on chair at desk too long.
Oh I almost forgot. so far I have kept off 3 lbs of 4 lbs that I finely lost in size.my belly is srinking. the upper part - rib area is srinking. God knows I have worked hard to do so.
Don't give up, we will reach our goal.

he says that some lrg c cret slabs have dips/sways in them. I don't know laws but I can only assume that suit would be against the gym n gym would need to sue the contractor, dunno. what a mess.
I so want to resume n contiune useing pool at that gym.
I haven't weighed in because I haven't cut bk on cal intake to balance cal in cal out ratio.
I can't walk to exercise( walking being my form of exercise) n it seem like all I do is eat.I don't eat junk food, diary, meat, bread, startchs but boy oh boy I can put away food.I guess that is cause by pain n wanting comfort foods that I was given as a child.My weakness is pasta. I went thur pantry n toss out noodles n soups that have noodles in them. I'v been meaning to box up can foods etc... for food bank. I donate on reg bases.I don't buy off brands - cheap food.1st place I won't eat such n 2nd if I won't eat it then I'm not given food bank food to give out that I wouldn't want to eat myself.
Someone was kind in posting something about home made soup. it's seems like a healthy n easy fix.
I use bag of frozen vegs< I like mix vegs ( micowave) n lrg cans of whole tomatoes n/or bullion cubes n spices,I like It.seasoning or I'll use V 8 bottle juice to make vegs soup. when I use can tomatoes,I don't drain the juice off can tomatoes.
For those who add meat to soup. I suggest that meat be baked 1st n mico the bag of vegs n then added broth into vegs n then add meat.
I think that some foods just taste better the day/days after it's maded.
When I cook, I make plently. I use medium size zipper lock plastic lunch bags to make small serveing size bags of what ever I made.
I lay bags flat n freezer n freeze. I lay wash cloths between ea bag. after food is frozen, I remove the wash cloths. I use wash cloths because it keeps the bags from sticking together n bags of food provide single serving,quick mico meals.
I'v had my 20oz of water this morning so off to get a cup of coffee. I use sugar free powder creamer. 1 spoon of suger free creamer being 30 cals. it can add u fast.
Yesterday I had 5 cups coffee w a spoon of creamer in ea = 150 cal's. I use lite coffee. lite coffee being 1/2 reg coffee n 1/2 decafe.
Off my butt n to kitchen I go for coffee.
