Yoga and walking

Checking back in...
(amazingly enough, I have been trying to write this post for two days)

I would love to say that I have worked out half a dozen times since my last post, but not quite.

I have put to use two fun resources, one old and one new (to me from the library!) to encourage me to move. 10 Minute Workout is one that I have had around for a couple of years. It has five different ten minute workouts: pilates, yoga, boot camp, ballet and kickboxing. I am starting slowly with the yoga. The others are fun, especially the kickboxing and I hope to work back into that soon.

My borrowed-from-the-library find is Kathy Smith's Power Walk
This is fun, and really not too hard. I did the 30 minute power walk and felt great. The next day I could feel it in my abs, so I know it did some good. It was certainly more entertaining than the other walking videos I have tried.

I have also been walking our nice long driveway, or I had been until the weather turned very ugly. This week promises to be better, so hopefully I will get back outside.

Hopefully, my next check -in will include happy news of falling numbers on my scale.

I guess that should mean no ice cream tonight. ;-)
