Freakish accident involving a kid and my injured knee tonight. I am hobbling along on it at best. Sitting here icing and hoping tomorrow brings better, not worse. I can't seem to catch a break with exercise. Just starting up and wham - something takes me down. Frustrating. Hoping for the best.
Today was fun otherwise.
Shopping with eldest yielded good stuff for both of us. New bralettes and panties for me. Comfy and cute. I'm into Gap Body stuff lately.
My collagen protein came today. It's Whole30 approved and recommended. Helps with joints (main reason for taking it), skin, hair & nails. Hoping for some results from it. 1 or 2 scoops per day dissolved in anything. I chose water tonight. It has no flavor, but it does thicken the liquid. Mind over matter - hard to swallow it tonight. Tomorrow I will do in a flavored drink (maybe hot tea).
70 cal per serving. Not thrilled about that - but the benefits should outweigh the calories. Of course, I keep thinking 2 scoops is like a glass of wine calories... but it's not the same. If only!
I'm on a mission to change ME from the inside out. Food, supplements. All good stuff.
Speaking of which - I'm cutting down on the fish oil to every other day. I've been having unusual bouts of bathroom issues and indigestion. Looked up fish oil side effects and this can happen if your body isn't used to it. I'm on the fence if I'll buy it again. $50 per bottle. But everywhere you turn fish oil is the thing to do - get those omega 3s. Results are longterm - kind of hard to keep motivated on this one. Especially since I have amazing cholesterol numbers. I'll think about it.
BTW - fish oil has 41 calories. All these supplement calories are adding up.
Out to dinner tonight and was perfectly good with no alcohol. I wondered if it would feel hard. I did see a couple of glasses of wine that looked good, but it was a passing thought.
I like the Jason Bourne movie. Kids didn't. Quite the critics lol.
Even with my crappy knee ... sitting here in bed content. Hot tea, computer, kindle ... relaxing ... bed to myself. Good end to a good day.
