Incorporating exercise back

Another good day! That makes 5 in a row!

I actually retook the points quiz today and realized that I'm in the borderline between 20 and 21 points (by a few ounces as of this past Saturday's weigh in. I didn't take that extra point most of this week (Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday) and it will (hopefully) be gone on Saturday so I decided to take it for the rest of the week.

I actually got back to the gym today, after 7+ days of not going. I went to spinning class and did some abs/stretching afterwards. I might've overdone it since my knee doesn't feel too great right now and I definitely pulled a muscle on my back (when stretching, go figure!!). I'm treating the back with heat right now and I might schedule an appointment with the chiro about my knee. It hasn't been feeling too great lately. Another reason to try to get this weight off me!!

Anyway, here's my menu for today. I feel like I ate a lot of food. I still have my cocoa and milk to drink (been doing that for a few days now, it's a nice sweet end to the day, since I crave it sometimes--okay almost always).
