Randomness and recovery
Well, I'm recovering from knee surgery so I've basically been confined to the house for the last week. I've spent most of my time in bed which I HATE because usually I am a compulsive over-exerciser. Let's just say my upper body has been getting one hell of a work-out! And I'm fidgeting so much I look like I'm on pills :PI'm so bored and I'm really struggling to fight depression. I'm determined to get through this though. I start physio next week and I'm so looking forward to it - it means the start of things getting back to normal for me.
I finally got out of the house today cos I had an appointment to see my orthopedic surgeon. He gave me pictures of the inside of my knee (really gross)! I got to go to the shops for a bit too (yay!). I got:
It's exhausting walking on crutches, but I'm so happy; all that stuff should help keep me occupied for the next few days. Plus my friend is coming over tomorrow and bringing 'Across the Universe' for us to watch. I been wanting to see that movie for so long so I can't wait :)
And... I invented a new drink! Mix 2/3 of a cup of S. Pellegrino carbonated water (0cals) with 1/3 of a cup of cranberry juice light (7 cals) and add a couple of ice cubes. It's so yum and it fills you right up and stops hunger pains. You could add some lime or lemon juice if you wanted (or vodka!). That's what I'm gonna ask for next time I go out - vodka lime and soda with a splash of cranberry juice. They use the full sugar cranberry juice in the clubs, but it'll only be a splash so it shouldn't be too bad.
Thats all from me for today!

- Tooth whitening kit
- Complete manicure set
- Foot treatment stuff
- 7 day detox program
- Magazines
- Tinned salmon that only has 53 cals per can (it's really weird that that excites me...)
