Look, don’t get me wrong… I eat super healthy. Fast food just happens sometimes, ya know what
I mean... “Drunken nights” … Me too. Sometimes I find myself indulging, but… I
give myself a pass as drinking doesn’t happen too often either. The trade… It’s
totally worth the dancing I did on the dance floor that night.
Staying focused on the goal… A HEATHIER ME. Doing something
that raises my heart rate-daily is something I mentally feel needs to happen. I
exercise almost every day. If I don’t exercise, then I’m either playing racquetball,
working in my yard/house or swimming. I realize
that I’m not 20 anymore and exercising more has brought me to a new awareness. My
joints. Particularly my right knee.
First off, I am so excited to start training for an 8k
obstacle course we are going to be doing in December. Making the decision to
start exercising has changed things and brought things in my life; for me. Positive…
Mentally and physically. I’m thankful that
my joints have made themselves aware with the soreness in my knee. It made me
start thinking about my supplemental and vitamins.
I take 5 different vitamins and supplements every morning.
The funny thing is that I realized that I take a massive multi-vitamin, vitamin
D, Iron, Pro-biotic, Omega’s and now I want to add a joint supplement. It’s
actually 2 more pills daily. Ugh... have I become that pill box lady? At least,
none of these are prescribed by doctors that derives from the pharmacy made in
some lab somewhere. I’ll gladly take these. To me, it’s all about prevention. Come on ladies… isn’t that why we buy lotions
and potions? That’s a whole different topic.
But 7 pills. Ugh! I guess what I’m saying is that I take the
others for my body, why not add one; technically 2 for my joints? If it helps this knee heal, and I can continue
to train, then I guess that’s what “doing whatever it takes” means.
I’m going
to continue to train, but take it easy on this knee until it gets stronger.
Keep pushing myself to the next level!
