Day one of 'not seeing in my 50'th year as an unhealthy blob' started today with half hour on the treadmill and a very healthy granola and greek yogurt breakfast, protein bar and mango chunks for lunch, and grilled chicken salad for dinner. I also forced myself to do a shit tonne of housework. I aim to work up to excercise eachday alternating between treadmill/bike, resistance bands work outs and pilates. I've also drastically reduced my wine intake and will now only drink a glass or two on a friday night. Once i've gotten used to this new regime I aim to go vegan (for both health and politcal reasons). Feeling good about this consdering i've lived a pretty sedentry for the last few years due to chronic back pain and long covid!
Exercise is the foundation for improving overall health and well-being. Although, how much exercise is enough to reap those sweet benefits? #exercise #getmoving #selfcare #gettinghealthy #gettingfit
So many exciting sniffs on today's little walk.
Had my kinesthethilogy appointment this morning and decided to push myself and take my boy for a little walk. I may have regrets later, but the air was so cool and fresh it was invigorating. Listened to one of my fav podcasts , @canadiantruecrimepod, which is always interesting! (Kristi is awesome, highly recommend!)

The hardest part of workout with time intervals is to know when to stop before you faint. #wellbeing #programmerslife #gettingfit #coffee
I lay down on the tile floor last night to do some crunches as part of my workout routine. There was a crunch alright- in my lower back. #GettingOld #GettingFit
Back from vacation and back to my workouts. A short back and bicep workout today.

I really should not go so long between workouts. I took a week off and that's to long. It felt great to get back into it

Well, I finally did it. I rode my bike to the office today within 40 minutes. Getting home in the 107° heat at 4pm will be another story. But one thing at a time right?

Enjoying a cuppa after my first run for about 32 years. I’m loving my new barefoot running shoes from Pure Step, they are so comfy and easy to rinse when they encounter a totally waterlogged field like they did today.
And what better than to drink out of my ‘Just Because I Am Me, I Am Good Enough’ mug?? It’ll be a while before I do a marathon, but the first step I took today was absolutely good enough!

Nailed it! 40 lengths #swimming that's a kilometer. So happy with myself! #GettingFit
