I sit here at 8 p.m. on a Wednesday, quite alert and feeling rather good, having gone to my yoga class today. I am so grateful for Lilias and her responsiveness to concerns; I am hoping that more attention to yoga and my back will help me regain more strength in my lower back and avoid injuries like the one that side-lined me and is still an issue, though much less so right now. Prevention. How important is that?
So the question is what do I do to keep the weight down, the back pains at bay, and stay fit and keep getting more fit. Maybe it's two yoga classes a week. I may need to do more regularly scheduled things that I can't skip very easily. Lilias did tell me that stretching forward from a seated position is not something I should do right now, and I'm planning on following her advice, but that might eliminate some of the exercises I presently do. Will have to watch for the problematic exercises.
But here's my plan for the next ten days, so I have something to fall back on if I don't do well on a day-to-day mode; a little yoga and non-impact heavy--Dec 1-10:

Fri: No exercise today!
Sat: Walk at CNC--1 hr.
Sun: active day out and with dad
Mon: work day
Tu:Balance ball--40 min
Wed: Yoga 75 min
Th: Yoga 75 min evening class
Fri: worked today
Sat (10th): 50 minute very brisk walk in the COLD
TO DO:

Mon (12th): Walk/run
Tu (13th): Balance Ball
