I'm learning

This week I'm learning about... PRIORITIZING. If I have 21 points to use in one day, and I use 26 at lunch, then I don't get to eat dinner. Or at least nothing good. Oops! Oh well - lesson learned. But I did stick to it - I had salad, cucumber, and an english muffin for dinner. Only 2 points. Thank goodness for my 35 weekly additional points. Big bummer though if I use all of those by Tuesday!

At least I made it back to the gym this week. Tuesday night was my own cardio for 30 minutes and weight training for 30 points. It gives me 3 extra points, but I'm not counting any of my "activity" points - trying to keep those just plain incremental. Today I went back to step for the first time. I was REALLY nervous on my ankle, but I loved being back in class. I made it the entire hour (7 points - woohoo!!!) and only felt uneasy at one step - the lunges (where I twisted my ankle last time). I found a great ankle splint for extra support for a few months to make sure I don't have any problems.

Today, Trey went back to the doctor for a checkup on his toe. He got the stitches and the pin out. It looks GROSS! But the doctor was very happy with his progress so a week and half longer in the boot and then he may be back in normal shoes!
