It is never easy to really talk about the journey that I am trying to undertake albeit fairly unsuccessfully.
A bit about me I am a former gymnast and was training in Tae Kwon Do. Due to all of my training I have been injured quite a bit.
In 2006 I tore out my meniscus and had my first surgery. With the surgery my knee has never felt the same as before. Running is so painful that it’s hard to really do much. I still pushed through.
In 2014 my second surgery was completed on the same knee for a torn meniscus and a cyst. Again being off my game for the time to heal and not really getting back to active status sooner has really made it hard.
Again with these surgeries it hasn’t helped as being active is so very painful. Also getting older hasn’t helped me as my metabolism has really changed.
I. On my mid fourties and less than active. I have back issues and wrist issues at times and it makes it very difficult.
I have really pushed to walk more and try and healthier but it is very hard. I am trying and being much better at my diet than I have been. I also try to walk a lot.
So far I have lost about 8lbs but it’s a constant struggle
