Recovery

FAT during recovery. I weigh 135 right now and that may only be a 4 pound gain, but I know some of that is having lost muscle to fat.
I am about to go to the next level in my physical therapy (strength training), but I am really anxious to get moving. I did ride my bike twice this week and I began hula hooping again.
While I am trying to maintain the correct calorie count (Re: Kara), I am keeping the bread intake to 4X a week. (That bread machine bread is too good!) Water intake is high--8 glasses a day. Too much of that Valentine's chocolate is still around, though.
I think I should probably log all my eating because it is too easy to let things slide. I won't be counting points per se, but just the recording of my intake causes me to be more conscious of what I am eating.

Goals for this week

Eating:
Count points - stay within 20 points using flex and exercise points as needed.
Don't eat after 8:00 pm
Monday - Didn't eat after 8:00pm - Stayed within 20 points.
Tuesday - Didn't eat after 8:00 pm - had 23 out of 24 points
Wednesday - Didn't eat after 8:00 pm - had 24 out of 24 points
THursday - Had one bite of bagel after 8:00 pm - had 21 out of 20 points
Friday - Not sure - although I did eat large quanitiy of food, dinner was high fat. I baked a chickedn, which I thought would be ok - but there seemed to be a lot of fat in the vegetables. So I am going to say that I used 10 flex points. SO 28 out of 20 points
Sat - did well. I ate 25 out of 24 points. Using one flex points.
For my own keeping - I have had 10 flex points. I can eat 20 flex points today. I usually try to not use 5 of my flex points in case I have miscalculated anything throughout the week.

Exercise (as follows):
Monday - biggest looser - did it
Tuesday - boot camp - did it
Wed - boot camp - did it
Friday - run at the gym - didn't do it. Was up 1/2 the night w/ Tyler - too tired and he's to sick to take to the child watch. I may go tonight or sometime tomorrow.
I might go to boot camp on Thursday as well - depending on how the week goes. - didn't do it.
Sat - I ran at the gym
