I was feeling just a bit achey this morning but not bad after walking a mile yesterday. I didn't do much today but watch TV. I was going out this afternoon to get lunch (yes, fast food again) and stopped by the mail box on my way. There was a key in the box for a package. I bent down to put the key in the mail box and my back spasmed really bad. I could barely get the package that was in the box. It hurt to walk back to the car. I knew I had to go right home and take something for the spasm. It hurt so bad that I took 2 muscle relaxers and 1 pain pill. I slept for about 2 hours after that. When I woke up my back was still hurting but it was better than it was before I fell asleep. It's still hurting but not as bad as it was. I don't think I'll be walking in the morning. There's more smoke from another fire up in Teller county so I don't think the air quality will be good in the morning anyway. I'm guessing that I over did it walking 1 mile yesterday and that's why my back is spasming. Oh well, as soon as it feels better I'll be out there walking again.
All I had to eat today was the fast food from McDonald's. Not too smart but there was no way I was standing to cook dinner tonight. Standing up straight hurts the most. I probably won't lose the .2 that I need to lose this week to make my 20 lbs lost mark. I only have 3 dayst to get there including weigh in day. It would have been nice to have walked a couple of days but I won't be able to do that now that I hurt my back. If I have a heat wrap I might put that on later before I go to bed.
Off topic: Dale Earnhardt, Jr. won the NASCAR race today. He hadn't won in over 140 races and about 4 years. I woke up just in time to see the win. I'm a Jr. fan so was glad to see him win.
That's it for now. Not much to report beside my back hurting.
