Detox: Update 1 Day 3

Whew! Busy day! It's weird though. Despite all I've done, even with this cold, I'm feeling very upbeat and cheerful. I went to the orthopedic surgeon today. The arm is declared officially all better! Yay! The knees? Enh, not so much. I've worn my cartilage rough under my kneecaps. I'll be wearing a brace on my left knee from now on when I exercise, at least until I can start physical therapy and learn how to tape said kneecap. This is good. I already hates the brace muchly (ickysweatyhot). Still, the doc was pleased by just how much awareness I have of subtle muscle control in my body, like the alignment I need to do specific tasks. I'll probably never get my flexibility back in my knees, which is my sniffly point, but at least I can work on getting pain-free. Also? I need to lose weight. I think I surprised him by not being offended by that, but rather eagerly agreeing. Well, heck yeah. I know how much losing 40lbs. helped, and while I've gained some back just from lack of attention to diet, this is a good incentive to get back on the wagon.

So, without further ado...( detoxing on day 3, snipped.  )

Oh, and I finished my taxes today! Yaaay!
