Well, the Achilles is still very sore. Incredibly sore actually. As such I have not yet got back on the bike as the pressure is hurting it. I am back to the Physio next Tuesday so hopefully I can get some sort of relief.
I am sure it is not helped by the fact that I am retaining so much water at the moment that my feet literally feel as though they are going to burst through the skin. I have never felt such incredible pressure in my feet before. I have also never seen them quite this big before. Even my thongs are tight...
So today I am trying to drink as much as possible and try to stay as far away from sodium as I can. Hopefully I will start to "release" some of this water soon which will hopefully take some of the pressure off.
Any tips for getting rid of this water will be gratefully accepted.

Sorry to hear your injury status hasn't improved Kylie :0(
As for getting rid of fluid retention - I followed a recommendation from Jillian Michaels a few years back. It was a concoction of 2 dandelion tea bags steeped in about 1.5L distilled water, with about 50ml cranberry juice added. Can't say it was the nicest thing I ever drank (actually it was pretty gross), but it did a good job. Finding the cranberry juice wasn't easy (I got it from a health food shop), but the dandelion tea and distilled water are both in supermarkets.
Hope you feel better soon.
