February is over!! Over all it was good, started swimming and using the bike and eliptical with weekly increased time. I enjoy the swimming. My overall weight did drop consistantly during working out and swimming. But the last week I could not workout as I was not feeling well. So the result was a 1lb gain over the month.

New strategy for this week, start with the elliptical then go to the bike. Elliptical: Time 15 minutes, Level 1, Speed 3.5 pace, Distance = .86 / Bike: Time: 15 min, Level 5, Strength Profile, RPM=70 - 75, Distance 5 miles- Overall conclusion: Better to start with the hardest first!!

For today, still no real working out. But will start again slowly this week. Had a few stiches removed on Friday so still healing from that. Today's workout: some ab work and pilates.

Finally was able to get into a shoe - not a pretty one but a shoe. Foot still swells during the day and I still ice it at night. But overall good. The flexibility is starting to come back - walking still hurts slightly but getting better. Hope to look for a show (Merrell) that I can wear to work and be comfortable.

Final dressings finally came off foot - scarring looks good. Working on my toe mobility with excercises. Still very stiff. But no pain - hoping to be in shoe soon.
