On Monday, I decided to give pilates a try. My knee was starting to feel better, and I thought pilates would be easier on it than yoga. Unfortunately, this was false; part way through the 30 minutes, I did some exercise (I don't remember what it was now) and I felt my knee hurt. The best way I can describe it is that whatever is wrong tore again. So I made it through the 30 minute workout (I was doing a dvd) and resolved not to do any pilates or yoga until my knee is completely healed. So instead, I went on the exercise bike a couple of times (still using the interval program) and went for a walk as well. In total, I worked out for about 30 minutes 4 times this past week (the only exception was the walk, which was about 45 minutes).
Thankfully, my knee seems to be getting better. It's healed up a bit since reinjuring it on Monday. Biking has been great for it, and the walk wasn't too bad. I'm still going to be avoiding pilates and yoga for the next while to make sure it heals up properly.
I weighed myself at the beginning of the week and was disappointed, having gained about a 1/2 lb. But then my period started, which explained the slight weight gain. I ate a bit badly at the beginning of the week, but overall I think I did a bit better than last week (with the exception of Tuesday night. I went to a friend's house and ate candy). Overall, I've had a great week, and I'm hoping this will keep up in the future!
