Hello.

This is going to be a personal fitness blog. I expect it to be quite boring.

Basically, about a year ago I started suffering from chronic (maybe constant is a better word) pain. Arthrotec helps. Then in September I got braces and the same week broke my foot (technically, a minor fracture of the toe, and “soft tissue damage” that causes pain mid-foot and my first three toes to be numb/tingly all of the time). During the pity party that ensued, I ate a lot of cake and icecream and poutine. I’ve started eating better—homemade soups, lentils, beans, etc. to try to get some protein and fibre back into my diet, but I’ve lost a lot of weight—all of it muscle. I actually got a body-builder-type drink (Myoplex) at the drugstore yesterday to try to up my protein intake, because it is quite sad.

Anyway tomorrow I start physio, and I wanted a place to keep track of what I’m doing exercise-wise, diet-wise, and otherwise-wise.
