What are you eating/doing today? (Thursday)

Good morning everyone.  

Today I hope to get a good bike ride in, going to have coffee with a friend, and trying to get more chores done around the house.   I've been procrastinating for a while and I really need to make a start getting things done.  Low energy hasn't helped, but I'm not going to use that as an excuse.  Time to get 'er done, lol.

Picked up some SKYR yogurt yesterday (they had been out of stock at my regular store so I went to a different store).  Love the stats on this yogurt, and it tastes less tangy than some of the others.

Have a great day everyone. 

Morning CC. I finally dragged myself out of bed. I'm still tired, though i cannot sleep but what is the point in laying there doing nothing. I have a Dr's appt. today for my knee. Seriously this knee is going to be the death of me. Then a few errands and I'm done for the day.

Yesterday i bout an ice cream maker from factory direct for $20. I'm going to try some protein ice cream.

Have a great day all, Nia.

Nia knee pain is  so frustrating.  I was offered knee replacement surgery on my one knee, but I turned it down (for now) because I thought that after surgery my activities would be limited and if I could put up with the pain I would just continue  the way I was.  Losing weight has definitely helped with the pain, but there are days that it feels like I am taking a step with a broken leg.  Next week I am going to a seminar that is sponsored by the Arthritis Society and the topic is pain management.  There will be some local doctors that specialize in arthritis and I would like to hear what advice they have to say.  PM me if you want to know the details.

I bought an icecream maker a year ago.  I liked it, but have no room in my freezer to put the cylinder in, lol.  Eggface has some recipes, and I also saw somewhere that people have added sugar free pudding mix to give it some creaminess.  Good luck and let me know how it works.  

I agree with you on the pain and not wanting to stop moving. I noticed last yr when i had my surgery and not being as active, i was sad and depressed and just ate whatever whenever. After starting to get more movement, my mood increased tremendously. I continue to move as much a possible because for one, when i don't it stiffens up and two i get so depressed and angry when i don't move. I will see what the doc say's and i think better pain control is what i need too.

I'll definitely let you know on the ice-cream maker. Egg face is where i got the idea from.

Good morning CC and all. Enjoy your bike ride.
