Last night was another rough night with knee pain. It has got to be the most frustrating thing to wake up every 1-2 hours because of a nagging pain. It wakes me up, I get up and walk around, the pain goes away, and I lay down and go back to sleep. I bet in the last 2 nights I've only gotten about 6 hours of sleep total.
However, I got up this morning determined that I'm not going to let this stop me from being healthy; it will NOT become another excuse. I might be tired, but I had another very strong day eating well, getting my water in, and of course my 10 minutes of strength training. No walking (it was raining and cold today anyway) and I wore a knee brace all day even though my knee doesn't hurt during the day. I'm trying to do all I can to keep as much weight off my knee is possible.
Short post tonight, eventually I'll just sleep through the night out of sheer exhaustion. Another day is in the books, here's to day #95.
Stay Strong!

Instead of trying to get healthy, why not shift focus toward learning how to build healthy habits instead. Follow me as I try to teach myself how to Engineer healthy habits that will allow me to take my health to the next level. Let's see where this experiment goes!
Sorry to hear your knee is still bad ...... sending positive thoughts that it does get better soon, and you can have a decent nights sleep.
