It’s day 47 and I had some company today.  My fiance actually did the workout with me!  I had to bribe him a little bit, but I can’t believe he actually did it with me!  It was legs and back so he was able to do chin-ups which he likes, so maybe that was it.

I think my chin-ups are getting better.  I am still using the chair of course, but my form is improving and I am starting to actually use my back muscles instead of just my arms, which is the point of these exercises!

M stupid knee is still bothering me.  I talked to my mom, who is a nurse, and she said it’s probably tendonitis.  UGH!  What can you do for that except ice and ibuprofen?  NOTHING I don’t think!  I don’t want to start wearing a brace because I don’t want to be come dependent on it.  I already have an ankle brace and I have to wrap my wrist sometimes.  Maybe I need more calcium for my bones.  What’s good for your joints and ligaments?  Time to google some stuff!

Now that I am doing phase 2 of the nutrition plan, I only ate one serving of carbs yesterday which was the tuna wrap!  Go figure!  I really wanted a buffalo chicken salad last night!  I had no desire for a carb!  Oh well.  The less the better.  I think the most important thing is to get enough protein and not eat over 2 servings of carbs.  I always eat my fruits and vegetables and almost always get in my dairy.  I like to have yogurt, cottage cheese, or string cheese as a snack and I add low fat cheddar to my eggs in the morning.  After a while you automatically know what you need to eat and how much.  I haven’t been keeping up with my journal, but it’s all in my head now!

Tomorrow is Kenpo X and scale time!!!!  Pictures and video too!  I am supposed to do a video every week, but as you can see I have been slacking in that department!  I will try my hardest to come up with a good update video for weeks 5-7!  These weeks have the same schedule anyway.
