My knee and other stuff

Well, I finally went and saw a physio on Tuesday arvo. I found out that my knee is fine! That's the good news. The problem is incredibly tight quads and fascia (the connective tissue going down the outside of your thigh). He got completely stuck into them (ow!) to try to loosen them up a bit. The bad news is no running for the next couple of weeks (bye bye Mothers' Day - I'll be there for support), and lots of stretching.

On a positive note, I feel much more in control this week. I've flicked back to points and am enjoying the discipline. I picked up the exercise bike I bought on eBay and it's great. Just have to find an allen key so that the handle bit isn't loose! Did 35 mins this morning (could have gone much longer but I needed to leave!) with 20 mins of the 8-second workout thing, where you go hard for 8 sec then ease off for 12.

Also - item number 3, the damn batteries on the scales died this morning. For the first time since the first WI, I don't know what the WW scales will say. Fingers crossed, I'm really unsure. I'm hoping for a decrease, but I have no idea! I guess I find out at lunchtime.
