Right hip, Menopause, Insulin Resistance

RUN WALK 1.56 miles in 23 mins

Yesterday I saw Dr Fitch in orthopedics about my right hip. He expects to find a labrum tear, mostly because I'm a runner. It may or not be the cause of the pain, but he's suspecting an impingement and that to be one potential source. 

And as I digested this, yes, I might agree. I ignore willfully the fact that inside the joint often hurts too. But I'm holding off on more of this until the MRI is one and read.

I don't have overt menopause symptoms, besides hair loss the last few months. Meno Belly too, I fear. In reading about it and still trying to optimize my diet (I've been 40% protein lately and Unsatisfied) I'm learning that the 16:8 IF and low carb are helpful here. 

I work with AI more now, although ChapGPT is hung up on things in the last 6 months, when I ask Copilot he comes up with suggestions I can work with. 

GPT didn't tell me that high protein is for rebuilding, not energy, and that it drives gluconeogenesis. Es verdad?! So I'm shifting from 40% protein over to 40% fat. 

More later.
