The Plan--to get back to balance (and regularity) in my exercise routine
done:
Nov 23: 35 minute walk/run; 30 minute pilates
Nov 24: 20 minutes pilates
Nov 25: 1 hr walk
Nov 26: another walk, this time Glenway Gardens--feel the gluts! ~45 min
Nov 27: nada
Nov 28: Strength training 1 hr.
Nov 29: Walking and pilates 30 min
Nov 30: Yoga 75 min
Another reason for recommitment: just found out my cholesterol is high (247; high is over 240), as is my LDL (161; high is 160-189); HDL is good (68--60 and above is optimal), as well as my triglycerides (92--less than 150 is normal)--the good changes in HDL and triglycerides can be due to exercise. Some ratios are good: So I need to continue exercise, but also watch my diet and lose 10% of my weight to try to decrease the other numbers. I need to check back in with my doc in 6 months. SO: 6 pounds between now and New Years; 10 pounds during winter quarter. Keep it off during spring and possibly see about losing more if needed. Check in with doc at end of spring quarter.
Finally, back on caloriecount.com; checking what I'm eating every day. Only way to know that I'm not eating more than I'm burning--simple math; simply works.
