I am getting a little further on my cross stitch project. It’s going to be a long one.

 

 

 

 

 

Okay so last week Jeff was complaining his foot hurt and he could not walk on it. I kept saying “When are you going to doctor?” Finally on Tuesday after work we went to the doctor. We met the nicest doctor and you know I hate my doctor, a lot! The very next day I called and changed my doctor to him. Also I won’t be as nervous since I know his personality and what he looks like. Back to the Jeff. I didn’t know this but Jeff has never had an x-ray done ever on his body except his teeth. I was shocked!

I have probably close to hundred, I really don’t know. I had a lot of x-rays taken of my back. Then various parts of my body, arms, legs, and knees. I was shocked because I thought he would have at least one. Also x-rays today are less painful as they were back then. Now they have the one where you can lay down and they have it where the machine moves. Still though that table you have sit or lay on it is hard! Jeff found that out.

The doctor had no idea what it could be but not plantar fasciitis which I have that in my left foot. His complaint is it’s on the side of heal. Found out it’s what they call police officer foot. Funny it’s called that. Also I noticed he has a couple of bruises on his heal too. Of course they didn’t give him any painkillers. Was hoping for that. The doctor gave him some exercise that Jeff won’t do. I just know he won’t. I think he just needs to rest it and it will be better soon.

Almost everyday at noon during the week I watch YouTube! I don’t know if anyone else notices but way more ads lately. And the kind where you can’t skip after 5 seconds. Well most of the time I go do something while they play or look at Facebook when they play. But there is a rare occasion where I actually watch what they are trying to sell me.

I found out about a workout that is so intense it works for a couple days after you do it. Called HIIT High Intensity Interval Training.

Thanks to April I am into the YouTube videos Fitness Blender. It’s a wife and husband duo that do all these workouts. I have done a couple of them but I found out they have a few HIIT videos. I tried one Tuesday and I never sweated so much during a workout before in my life! I was a fountain of sweat! Oh man was I sore for days afterwards. You would think various parts of my body would hurt but what was the sorest was my butt muscles! I think it’s funny that my butt hurt the worst out of anything. There is a lot of squats in the video but I thought my thighs would be sore no my butt! It wasn’t till a little later my arms, thighs and knees were sore. But instant butt soreness. Funny!

Would I do HIIT again? Hell Yes! In fact I plan do it at least 2 times a week.

Also I am going to be doing an 8 week program from Fitness Blender starting the first week of August. Going go get some dumbbells. That is all I need for equipment. I am excited to lose more weight and what I want is to look different by Christmas that is my goal. So far I have been strict on eating my points been doing weight watchers, Jeff has too and he lost 10 pds already! I lost 5.

Fitness Blender has this program for 8 weeks and they give you videos everyday plus bonus videos. On top of that tips and tricks to get the most out of your workouts. I am excited to do this and the price is unbeatable!

April has been going to a gym and I thought maybe I should join a gym. We have 2 in our town an Anytime Fitness and another. I can’t think of the name of the other. Both are so expensive! Over a hundred dollars a year and then some. April got a whole month free to Anytime Fitness in her town so that is why she has been going. I am not so lucky to get anything like that.

However Fitness Blender program for 8 weeks is $15 that’s a steal. So I will be doing this. Can’t wait.
