Good morning!
Leslie 2 Miracle Miles - 30min JV 10 Min Quick Core - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXAUmMprEkc JV 10 Min Legs and Hips - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_rNh1_MYIg It was one of these morning when I couldn't get into anything. I started with Gina B's new Retro 80's Dance workout and wasn't feeling it and when the ad kicked in after the first 8 minutes, I felt so irritated that I just stopped and had moved on to Leslie's MM DVD. Youtube is getting more aggressive here with the ads and is pushing paid subscription. Carol, being diagnosed with something can definitely motivate one to make better decisions for one's health. I haven't been to a doctor (except my gyno and I paid out of pocket) in well over 2 years because I had no health insurance. I'm finally getting health insurance starting tomorrow Dec 1st (yippee!) and I'm looking forward to scheduling some appointments for a complete physical. I'm apprehensive about what I'm going to find out because I'm about 35 lbs overweight. I'm active but lack motivation to do anything about my weight. I fear I may just hear something that I don't like which will force me to get my motivation back in a hurry - at best. I hope everyone is doing well. Waves to all!

i Everyone,
Lucy Wyndham Read posted an Advent Challenge: https://www.lwrfitness.com/fitness-advent-calendar/ and, I think I'm going to focus on that leading up until Christmas. With my Pilates, Yoga and whatever else I feel like adding in. So, last night I did the Winter Wonderland workout which was cute - 11 moves or so w/ 11 different winter backdrops. Today was day 2 and was a longer workout - 30 min - 20 moves. Her stuff is extremely basic and easy to follow. It reminds me a bit of Slim in 6, Slim Series as it is high rep, mainly body weight - in fact, it may be all body weight - I don't know if she has any weight workouts - it is cardio/tone for the most part. The sets are not all that exciting and there is no music, so those are the downsides. Of course, you could play your own music as everything is pretty easy to follow and you don't even really need to listen to her cues. I finished w/ Pilates Next - 5 day challenge - Day 5 - I hope to be able to get out for a walk. I'm feeling a bit down today - I think in part b/c I have been in the house since we got back from walking on Sunday - and it is now getting into the dark and dreary days...and also in part, b/c I'm concerned about the pending purchase of my daughter's horse. Did you ever get the feeling you were about to be completely taken advantage of? That is how I'm feeling right now. I wouldn't care so much if it wasn't going to affect my daughter - hopefully I'm just misinterpreting some signals, but suffice it to say, I wish if this was a no-go from the beginning that they would have been honest w/ us. My daughter is very attached to this horse which makes it more emotional - in fact, he has essentially been her emotional support during this pandemic and high school. On the one hand, I say, if it doesn't work out it may be a blessing in disguise, but I also know my daughter will be devastated. it is not good to be negotiating a business deal w/ high emotions....and as a mom, it is hard for me not to be emotionally invested in the outcome. Anyway - I know that whatever will be will be and we'll get through it somehow. And, maybe it will all work itself out. Sorry to ramble! I have a class this morning that I don't feel like attending...but duty calls. Hope everyone has a good day - thanks for letting me vent! Donna |
