Wow, I've been absent from my little corner of the internets for quite some time . . . no frittering away time trying to figure out how to be healthy w/ a minimum of effort, no obsessing over every ripple of flab I spot, no more posting pics of my booty . . . oh blog, how I've missed you!
Well, here is what happened: about one month ago I sat down hard on my foot to keep myself from tumbling clumsily down the stairs at school, in a sad attempt to keep my paper cup of tea safe . . I kept the cup upright (although the tea mysteriously disappeared) at dreadful cost to my foot, which got juggernauted down two steps and curled under me like an instant Chinese foot binding. OUCH!!
I had to cancel my two classes the next day and my husband took me to Severance hospital in Seoul. I got to be pushed around in a wheelchair by a nurse smaller than me, wheeee!! The x-rays showed no serious damage but the doctor said it would be several months before it would be fully healed. *GASP* But it's been a month and it looks almost normal, I'm going to start on the elliptical slowly . . . can't stand the idea of getting doughier and more slothful . . . as long as go carefully and gently it'll be ok . .
note the humoungous purply-green bruise
compared to my normal foot which also got a bit bashed(after about three weeks)
the puffer fish foot after two weeks (puffiness came first, then bruising)
frozen veggies in a bag for two weeks really helped!
had to wear longer skirts and sturdy sandals at work --note the Storm Trooper ankle brace, a lovely accessory to any ensemble
After an entire month not doing anything, I thought I'd majorly regress but the stats from Dec. 1 weren't that bad, plus got new booty pics for the photo check too -- I guess I've been coasting, which won't last so I'm motivated to get back on track!
