Brief Gym Visit

I had a cold a couple days ago. Nothing big, just FYI.

Today I went to the Y and did 5 minutes on the elliptical and 2 sets of 10 reps on the leg extension machine. Nothing big, but trying to get a feel for how I'm progressing. R knee still hurts when I press on it and I can't bring my heel to my rear to stretch. But all-in-all, it's going okay.

Surgery + 16 days - knee & foot doing well

Stitches were removed Tuesday. Knee continues to get better. Going up and down stairs is much better - only holding the handrail now just as a precaution. My L foot pain is going away, too. Just over 2 weeks after surgery. Dr said to stay off hard impacts so I'm thinking the elliptical will be good to start next week.

Sick today

Up late Monday and I got hungry so I ate a very late extra dinner of pasta and 2 waffles. Tossed and turned during the night and woke with a headache. Went to work but left at 11 due to continued downward trend. Had to use the bathroom 4 times before lunch!

Slept an hour at home, then salad, get kids, slept another 45, and then spent rest of afternoon/evening running kids around the Twin Tiers. Healthy food day at least with no added sugar, lots of fruit and veggies, and some taco meat with dinner.

Knee continues to improve and I like that it's giving me a reason to limp as that is helping improve my L foot. I thought it was my plantar, but more like a bone problem I now think. It's also getting better.
