After taking Huffty to football this morning where I stood and sat down (hardly challenging but nevertheless tiring for me today), I have done nothing but lie on the settee, watch television and snooze.
To be honest it is long overdue even if I don't feel any better for it.
I'm continuing my treatment with the Mad Canadian on Monday and I will be making every effort to keep this little body charged.
Kitten and I are getting to grips with the diet side of things, which is not particularly inspiring but still capable of variety. The secret is to try and get as many "good calories" in with as little intake. Undoubtedly, I will be using supplement drinks going forward and I have some of my own tricks up my sleeve. When I used to do heavier weight training I used to make my own supplement drink from egg whites, skimmed milk powder, water and chopped up banana. It was a supplement between meals, full of protein and carbohydrate but not to overdone of the fatty side. It also benefited from added vitamins and minerals in the skimmed milk powder.
At the moment I am sitting down to some soup, to which Kitten has added minced garlic chicken. She has had a food processor as a gift from her parents for the last two years and it is the first time she has used it. I get the feeling that it may be coming in for some heavy usage in the near term!
Meanwhile this resting malarkey can be taxing. How much footie, old episodes of Top Gear and current episodes of Red Bull X-Fighters can a Swordfish watch?
