Life as it is

AHHH Life has been going be at supersonic speed. I have a bone cyst forming (its about the size of a pencil or pen point, like .5 mm) on my wrist bones...joy! It is from falling constantly on my wrist during Basic Training and the bone doing something similar to a hairline fracture that went unnoticed and calcium and fluid built up and yah PAIN! I have been pretty easy to it for 6 weeks but I am getting back into the swing of things using it. I threw the splint and brace away and never took any medicine for it (oops...lol). On my first day of push ups at my own pace I did pyramid push ups from 5 down to 1 and back up to 7, so thats about 43 push ups. Then I did a 30 second dead hang from the pull up bars and did a half pull up and hung for 25 seconds. I was excited because I have not done either push ups or pull ups since the first week here (about April 21). So hopefully if I work hard enough I will be back to where I was within the week and be caught up shortly to where everyone else is now. It is further behind then where I would have been but thats life. It sux though because i was on profile for my 2nd APFT and since I could only do the run it counted as a failure which meant no off post privelegs today. Oh well, it was beyond my control. I still got to wear civies while in the Company area and go anywhere on post in ACUS. Next Sunday some of us are going swimming! I cannot wait. I have lost sooo much fat, I cant say weight cuz on any given day im 125-135 and I came in at 136, but inches wise OMG! i have lost about 2-3 inches from around my hips alone! its awesome.
