Is it really lunchtime already?
I swear time really DOES fly some days.
Yesterday I stocked up on lots of salad "accessories"(toppings) to get me through the work week.
The biggest tip for healthy eating/living is making sure you never get bored with meals.
Variety is key!
In the bowl:
*grilled chicken that was marinated in Italian dressing
*pepitas
*sunflower seeds
*sugar snap peas
*cherry tomatoes
*carrots
*cucumbers
*arugula
On top:
This dressing is fantabulous, I found it during a Whole Foods trip on Saturday and even though we have several dressings in our fridge at the moment this one will be getting lots of use.
Knee Update:
I mentioned this morning I was going to the Orthopedic to talk to them about my current knee pain/issues.
Thankfully Lauren works at the office I went to because all of the doctors understood the workouts I do on regular basis before I even explained the issue I was having.
They did X-rays which came back normal so I am being sent for an MRI which is next Tuesday night. The PA thinks it may be a meniscus tear which would require surgery.
I highly doubt that is the situation. I am not in that much pain but I guess you never know?
In the meantime he told me to rest it when I can and take advil/ice it. I plan on sticking to my regular workouts, modifying moves as needed.
Speaking of workouts, it's time for Elevated Training!
I just dealt with what they thought was a middle meniscus tear. I chose NOT to have the MRI & am, so far, healing beautifully. In fact, I rode 70 miles on Saturday and it wasnt even super sore. You do what's right for you; I hope it is NOT a meniscus issue!

DeleteUgh! Knee pain! I'm currently going through the rehab process. While I don't have anything meniscus related, it has taken time. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteim very sorry to hear about your knee! i will be keeping you in my prayers! that salad dressing also looks really great. im going to have to look for it!! spa love!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy salads... sometimes. I'm bad about salad fails - putting things together that sound good in my head but turn out awful. Yeah, gotta' work on that.
ReplyDeleteI hope the knee feels better soon!
Wishing you nothing but the best for your knee situation.
ReplyDeleteSalads are gross. LOL. I only like spinach salads, I can't eat lettuce. I know, it makes me a weirdo.
That salad looks so yummy! I hope your knee heals up soon, good luck with the MRI, I hope it shows that nothing serious is going on. #SPAlove
