I went in to the doctor to figure out what my pain has been caused by around the hip area and side and knee. She deduced that I have hip flexor strain and illiotibial band tightness. I'll be doing some home exercises and stretches. In two to three weeks, if pain still persists, she'll suggest physical therapy. In the meantime, ice, muscle cream, or ibuprofen to help with inflammation as needed.
On a good note, I'm down 7 lbs since I last visited her! Which means that I'm down 10 1/2 lbs overall since February! Yay me! Yay working out! Yay for fun exercise! Yay for Redmond Athletic Club and Body by Candy!
Oh, and I had my first pina colada night. Yum! That's like a once a month kind of drink. Few and far between but OH so delicious!
Alcohol is fattening. Especially that wine you guzzle.
