Days 34 and 35: REST DAYS

I'm ready for month 2 to start tomorrow. In fact, I'm anxious to start it. The little demon of overachievement started trying to convince me to start today because I rested yesterday, but I'm reminding it how tenuous my knees are and that an extra rest day can only help me all around. I've been soaking in epsom salt baths and yesterday in a hot tub, doing my Strong Knees routine, cooking, and generally taking it easy. I was craving diner food so I'm having a homemade black bean cheeseburger for lunch with carrot sticks and a light cookies-and-cream milkshake. (175 calories!) Ah, rest days. The extra time is nice, too.
