    I hear ya!

    That's why I bring my lunch and all my snacks with me for the day! Though there have been a few times I had to go *out* to lunch for business, and it wasn't that easy for me to decide what to get that was similar to what I had originally planned on here or that was just healthy in general! Sorry you had a lame lunch!

    Business lunches stink

    My lunch today is an example of what's wrong with typical american fare-carb overload and cheese covered salads. Yuck.

    CrankyGoat's Plantar Faciitis injury

    Pamela, there are two extremely minimally invasive options for the repair of tendons and fascia that have recently become available. The first, and least expensive, is Platelet Rich Plasma Sport injections made by Exactech (basically spinning the patient's blood and extracting the platelet rich plasma, then injecting it into the injured area). The second option is a Podiatrist or surgeon (under anesthesia) will poke small holes in the injured area and slightly debride the area with a Topaz wand made by Arthrocare. This process forces the white blood cells to attack the damaged tissue and repair itself. Obviously, a Doctor is the only person who can prescribe these treatments.

    Thanks and if...

    you have any suggestions with regards to Plantar fasciitis, that would be hugely appreciated. I had been doing very well with a trail running / weight lifting routine and this develops out of the blue. In hindsight, I suspect I was being too aggressive with my calve muscle routines and neglecting to stretch properly. I just started back to using the spin cycle and lightly on the elliptical, but I want to get back to running as soon as possible...by the way, hope you enjoyed your birthday trip.
