WHAT IF GOD WILL HAVE IT SO?

So, I have completed the first month of this year without one single day of exercise to my name. No, I am not happy about it... and it was not my fault!!! I have a really bad case of tendonitis (sexy name for a horribly painful situation) right under my left heel, pulling to my ankle. That's how I started the year... after a brief cold stint in the coldest parts of the world as the year started. Excuses! Excuses!!?? Sounds like excuses to anyone who doesn't know me. I really do enjoy my power-walks and near-runs, I call them "occasional trots". :) But what I need to explain is that I am beginning to think that God will have me so... Fat. No, don't laugh. This is serious. Why do I think so? Ok, not only do I have tendonitis, I am also placed on a drug that I MIUST take on a full stomach, twice a day. I still remember the doctor stopping me on my way out and saying, "Mrs Umeano, I don't mean a couple of sandwiches, I mean a really good full meal. I don't want us treating ulcers soon! So, I can't walk. And I can't diet. I can't even watch my portions. Isn't this God's way of frustrating my intentions so I concentrate on more important things?

Hmmmm ...., but I'll have to think about this one.
However, I have to question your doctor's 'full stomach' instruction. A slice of bread, a bowl of cereal, even a pot of yoghurt is enough food to take your medication on I assume you're taking NSAIDS for the tendinitis? You don't need a full builders breakfast oh!

Hey Ulo, Hope the foot heals quickly!! Me thinks though that God will prefer you to be healthy. If you are fat and healthy, thats alright. And again as per doctors orders, full stomach is actually relative...The question is...full of what???/
