Didn't get out of work until 5:00pm, but got to SIGS and rode the bike for almost 45 minutes. Increased the resistance and got a really good workout!

Rode the bike tonight for 35 minutes. Cut the grass today and cleaned carpets. My tape on my feet was coming off so I took it off the evening and I can really feel a difference with it off.

Hello everyone! Remember me?? Well, I am back after another 8 days......I haven't been off exercise that long but close.
I went to the podiatrist last Thursday and found out I have an inch long heel spur in my left foot and am suffering from plantar fascitis in both feet. So I received a cortisone shot in both heels and have been taping my feet, applying ice as often as I can and doing some stretching exercises. Yesterday, I was fitted for some orthodics for my shoes.
My pain level has been cut in half and I traded out the stair- stepper for my Dad's stationary bike. I rode for 35 minutes last night and it felt fantastic!!!! Oh yeah, the MD said I needed to keep away from walking exercise for 2 weeks, thus the stationary bike.
I have lost another 3 lbs. and I'm not giving up on my goal by no means....just another little set back!!
