Not a Happy Camper !

November 1, 2010                                         Weight: 190 lbs

Anything in excess is not good !

Well, let me explain.... I thought I had a great workout idea.  Speed walking at high intensity up and down the steepest hills in my neighborhood.  Not the brightest of moves.  I ended up getting extremely painful and severe shin splints.  I actually never experienced this injury.  MD said it could take 4-8 weeks to heal.  Need to ice the area several times a day, wear an ace bandage and a removable soft cast at night and simply take it easy.  Not easy for me....Went home, had some chips and some wine for comfort food.  Another bad idea.  Weight started to creep up again.  To be continued.....
