Last night's weigh in was a wake-up call for me. It's a reminder that exercise is a very important part of losing weight and I'm certainly not doing enough.
I am currently working out regularly about 2-3 days a week. I really should be doing something every day, even if it's just going for a walk. Currently I am doing yoga one day a week, I go to the gym and ride a bike usually on Saturday or Sunday and I usually go for some short of walk another day.
My new workout plan will be to go to yoga every Tuesday & Thursday. There is an easy yoga class at a local studio - I am still too out of shape to do anything too strenuous. I hurt for several days after my last class! I need to go to the gym three other days. I am going to ask my friend to join me on Monday and Tuesday nights after my weigh-in ... and also on Saturday and Sunday mornings. That just leaves Wednesday. I am going to set that morning aside to walk the stairs near my house. It's a pretty steep staircase, but if I get up and do a minimum of once up and down ... well, that's a start at least! It will also help get my heart rate going - which is clearly something I need.
Tomorrow I will post a photo of the stairs to give you an idea of what they look like. Just so you don't think I'm a total wuss for considering only going up and down once!
