I recently injured myself doing Zumba...horrible back and neck/headache pain. I was told not to exercise for 2 weeks...anyone know anything that could help me stay on track if I can't do anything? Im so disappointed! :grumble:

Eat less.
Did your doctor say you could do things like walking?0 -
Only standard daily activities...so walking in the store and such, not alot of cleaning (bending over I guess) either. So I feel like maybe I need to lesson my calories of 1200 a day? Its for a couple weeks, but its really irritating me.0
