Whoops, fell of the earth there for a while...

Sorry about the length between posts, I did promise I would be better about that, but c'est la vie.
I re-sprained my ankle a week or so ago, so that was a bummer. We were at the glow-in-the-dark mini golf course at Trafalga and I stepped off a ledge onto the green and it was not flat like I thought, so I rolled it and went down hard. Thankfully it wasn't bad enough to need the brace again, but it did further delay my return to full workouts. I'm just too scared to make it worse.

On the plus side, my face seems to be a little bit more clear, but still not where I want it to be. I couldn't find the "DIM" supplement my doctor recommended, and the pharmacist didn't know what it was, so I'll need to do some more research/call my doctor back. It probably doesn't help that I've been pretty stressed out lately and that makes me break out, and even worse, my stress coping mechanism is to pick at my face, so nothing gets to heal and the oil from my hands gets transferred to my skin. Ouch and yuck!

This morning I weighed in at 184.7, and I'm still in the "overweight" category instead of "obese" so I'm going in the right direction! I set my typical "5 lbs in One month" goal on my wii fit, which will put me in the 170s if I make it. The last time I got close to that, I rebounded and gain some weight back. The 180s are always the hardest for me, but that's to be expected since I haven't weighed less than 180.0 in a very long time. I'm not exactly sure how long, but probably high school.
