The extra calcium helps, and the extra protein helps rebuild bone as well as muscle. The study seems to show that the whey works better than milk or other dairy products, although obviously they're all good. (Assuming you're not allergic to whey or dairy, etc.) <br /><br />The only downside is that the extra calories might fatten you up a bit, so you might want to ease up a tad toward the end of your boneknitting period.<br /><br />Also, pay attention when you're feeling cranky for "no reason," because sometimes that means it's time for another pain pill and your body is letting you know before the pain actually hits.Bansheehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12594214770417497135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447603865959500290.post-63939207207704317612016-04-27T09:52:40.264-04:002016-04-27T09:52:40.264-04:00I suppose this means that we have to wait even lon...I suppose this means that we have to wait even longer for the next episode of "Deus vult!"?thefederalisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17514099991587503764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447603865959500290.post-61599969519305852762016-04-26T13:02:22.692-04:002016-04-26T13:02:22.692-04:00It may not have been funny to you, but your descri...It may not have been funny to you, but your description of it sure was funny to me.

We must not forget that <a href="http://tofspot.blogspot.com/2015/06/tof-and-sidewalk.html" rel="nofollow">incident with the dastardly sidewalk</a>, which came close to doing the same. Alas, the dastardly elliptical machine did what the sidewalk could not. (Are the sidewalk and elliptical machine in cahoots perhaps? It makes one wonder...)<br /><br />Get well soon.jmhenryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10108615537455993311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447603865959500290.post-28923157574261871912016-04-26T09:18:42.163-04:002016-04-26T09:18:42.163-04:00Wikipedia article on Elliptical trainer contains n...Wikipedia article on Elliptical trainer contains no such warning.Pawyigh Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02207136696914311229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447603865959500290.post-45824573557480417592016-04-25T21:28:28.858-04:002016-04-25T21:28:28.858-04:00https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dummy_pronounhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dummy_pronounSophia's Favoritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02871625814389904112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447603865959500290.post-84327335715482632162016-04-25T19:58:02.961-04:002016-04-25T19:58:02.961-04:00Ouch!
