Think Positive!!!
I haven't really been in the mood to post lately. I'll be honest, I'm gutted about this injury. I'm gutted that it's keeping me out of training and I'm sick of not being able to take stairs without there being an element of pain.
I start placement on Monday and for the first week will be working 8 hour shifts. From week 2 onwards, it'll be 12.5 hour shifts and I can't be ill or hobbling about for that. It's not exactly a great impression. I'm only 12 weeks away from becoming a 'proper' nurse and I can't wait.
To keep myself going I've been looking at holidays for next year. I don't have the motivation of being able to go to training at the moment so I'm using a swimsuit as my motivation. Next summer, I'll need to wear a swimsuit and that's what's got to get my diet back on track. I've been so down about not being able to exercise that I've let it all lapse and I can't do that. I've come way way too far.
I did go for a short walk today and by the time I got back to the car, I was sore but I think I need to keep at it. The pain will eventually fade and I'll get back to normal. I've got a physio appointment the week after next. The girls from CPT have been lovely, sending me their best and offering to come walking with me. I definitely going to take them up on their offer, hopefully really soon.
There's a girl from uni who has been on my case to go swimming with her and I think I'm going to take her up on it. I kept giving her the excuse that I wasn't ready to into a swimsuit yet but I'm going to do it. In fact I've sent her a message on Facebook to see if she still goes swimming and if she's up for some company.
This desire to keep exercising has thrown me. I'm normally the person looking for an excuse not to exercise, not trying to hunt down lighter exercise that I can still be doing when I'm hurt :-)
So I have to keep in mind swimsuits and the fact that I will hopefully have to wear one next summer. I've enclosed one below but there aren't enough days left in my life to be able to wear this particular swimsuit........but I can give my mind a treat lol.
