An Exciting New Name

It turns out I'm pretty awful at naming things.  I have been pondering for an hour over what I should name this blog.  Health and Life is a good name, but a common one.  I even looked up this wonderful website on how to name your blog.  I managed to take up a whole piece of paper with a lot of phrases that don't make any sense or have no relatedness to my blog.  I think my favorite name is "The Afflicted Scientist", but outside of the afflicted part I can't make it relate.  For now, Health and Life will remain my blog name.

As far as weekly progress goes I suspect I will meet two of my goals.  I have done my leg strengthening exercises three days, and I have tracked using Lose It!every day.  I almost didn't track Lose It! today because I thought I would go over on calories.  Going over on calories is not a good reason to not track.  I entered in everything and was only about 20 calories over, so it really wasn't bad.



The biggest problem I've run into this week (other than intense pain) is not being able to find my dumbbells.  The arm and core exercises I found both require dumbbells, so without them I haven't been able to do any of those exercises.  I'm running short on cash, but I think I may buy another set tomorrow.  I probably won't make the original goal, but I think I can modify it and make it work.  My modified goal will be 1 arm set, 1 core set, and 1 pool jog!


I thought it might be fun to show people the weirdness that is my knee.  My knee is the equivalent of the top right picture.  Picture credit of: noyeskneeinstitute.com

Bipolar Owl

I'm out of town this weekend so I didn't have much time to find what I wanted to post about.  I think my next big post is going to be about the stigma of taking medication, so for this Saturday enjoy a meme about bipolar meds. 

Dream

The moon lights up the night, As I watch the dancing sprites. The spring wind blows, to the place no one knows, As the elves sing away my woes. And all of the dragons take to flight before the signs of first day light
