Day at the Doctors- Discouraged

Yesterday I had a substitute at school and went to the doctor for three reasons:
1. Kidney Infection- got some medication
2. Knee Pain- got some shots and pain pills-- felt better right after but is killing me now.
3. Fibromyalgia- I went to a specialist in this area and got some better information and medications. I got lyrica with a stronger dosage, celebrex, and a pill that helps me sleep better. Hopefully this will help with the overall pain and especially fatigue. I am so tired all of the time. So the doctor told me not to walk for three days-to keep it up and ice it...I guess because they drew water off the knee and the shots and everything---but my substitute was awful so I am back at school and it is really hurting. I just want a whole new knee.

I am really not doing well on the diet/ eating plan or the exercises this week. I think I am going to bag this whole idea. I have lots to do at home and with moving my classroom and grade level stuff for the end of the year. I just need to focus on other things besides what to eat and the time to work out. I just want to sleep after school instead of walk.

So this will probably be my last blog. I wrote this blog so that I would have a record of my progress and be more accountable. At the end of it I thought I would print it out and but it in a binder for my relatives some day who might need help with weight loss. But I think I am not a good role model for this type of plan. I know I have gained weight this week.
