9/12/10 I just read Steph's blogs from the last few months...I am so proud of you girl! When I saw you last, you looked great! You are an example of what commitment will do.
I have not made a blog entry in a very long time. Guess I got tired of talking about this knee pain. It has truly become a day to day thing. It has certainly had an impact on my workouts. And my quality of life. I still go to the pool but sometimes my leg is too sore for that. I am taking a few D2 classes depending on what I can still do. And can I say that becuz my left knee is so jacked that now my right ankle is swelling and hurting in protest of having to carry most of the weight now. I mean damn! This is why I have not blogged. My body doesn't seem to be on board all the time to what I am trying to do.
I was taking Physical Therapy. It helped with the stiffness but it did not yield the results I was hoping for. I actually did not go back this week. I did however make an appoint for a second opinion.
I typically am not a person who rushes to surgery,but that may be my last option. I cant even sleep soundly at night.
I would be lying if I said I didn't think of giving up or that I have not cried over my situation. But then I remember the alternative....I am still above ground.
I need a bit of a jump start again. After reading Steph's accomplishments, maybe I could be more create in finding thing i could do as alternatives. i am open for suggestions.( a sistah needs some encouragement)
I turn 50 years old 9/24. Lets see what happens between now and then...peace

First of all, I want to say a BIG WOW to both Roz and Stephanie for really taking my challenge to the next level. I am so impressed with your progress! You 2 have transformed your bodies and I am so proud of you. Secondly, you must continue to blog on a weekly/daily basis so others can see that this can be done! You can get SERIOUS about your fitness and health and become the person you have always wanted to be!
Stephanie, your figure comp is coming up and I know I am pushing you hard, but man, are you doing it girl! I can't wait to see the finished product!
To others reading this BLOG, here is a challenge to you: Do you LOVE your body as is or would you like to improve your look, strength, endurance, and overall health but you are just not sure where to start or maybe (keeping it real) you are just too lazy to start? Well, whichever is the case, D3 can help! We are offering classes on line under D3 On Demand very soon if you are not in the Chicagoland area but if you are, call me so I can get you started!
Remember, after 21 days a habit is made and you too can become a consistent participant of exercise(even if you never have). So, what are you waiting for? Call 312-276-5138 ext 10 or just email me your story to dre@dresdieseldome.com. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
