Now before you say it, I know that weight is not a true reflection of diet and exercise success, but really, who has time to measure every inch of them every morning?
So for now, I will go by weight daily and maybe take some measurements every now then.
This morning was my first day of at home exercise. I was going to hit it hard whilst I have the enthusiasm, but that kind of approach has never lasted before, so I decided to play it smart. I've been having a little bit of back trouble lately and, seeing as this is about health as well as weightless, I figured yoga was the way to go.
A quick search on YouTube found hundreds of 20 minute yoga lessons. I decided to go for one specific for back issues and chose Yoga for Back Pain from Yoga Current.
It was a simple 20 minute session for beginners, however it did find the press ups at the end a bit beyond my beginner level, so I just adapted down.
I must say, I felt great after. It may not have been a cardio workout but it was great to loosen up my back to start my day and I found I was walking taller all day. I definitely want to carry on with yoga in the mornings as much as possible.
Didn't go for any specific healthy eating today, partly due to this project being a super of the moment thing. Just tried to eat well and logged it all in a calorie counting app, My Fitness Pal. I will see how this goes over the next few days and share my opinion of how useful it is.
Day one done. Feeling good :)
