So I was on a roll. Tuesday I went for a run. Ran .5 mile, walked .25, ran .75, walked .25 then turned around and that is when I felt it. In my knee. But I was able to run back to the car. Felt fine. But when I got up Wednesday morning at 5:45 to get my kids off to school I got myself dressed for running. Headed out the door at 7. I walked .25 then started running. Made it .25 miles and had to stop and walk. The pain in my knee was terrible. I could walk with no problems, but every time I tried running it was very painful. So I took today, Thursday, off. I think I will get up and go for a walk in the morning. My friend has a knee brace she is going to let me borrow and see if that will help.
Pain is not good.
Food has been ok. Back to working. I have been packing yogurt to eat as a snack. That seems to head off the gorging bug when I get home from work. And trying to keep my portions at a regular size for dinner.
Dh and I just went for a walk. About .5 miles.
