  • Weighty issues : – )

    I have been following my own advice for a few weeks. Figured if I was working with people on eating for their own metabolism I ought to recheck my own eating….and whoops I was not doing enough protein for me.

    So since the 4th of July – I added protein in the form of bison and have lost 5 pounds. Even better – I lost 3 inches on my hips and 3 around my waist. I feel great! And am looking much leaner…my friends have asked if I lost a lot of weight. Nope – just getting lean…

    I’m also still exercising although I took off last week [too hot ]- but it seemed to not make a difference – I jumped right back into my usual routine this week with no problems.

  • Never too old for yoga

    Most everything I have been doing of late is working at tightening my muscles…cycling, walking, playing squash….

    That’s not bad as I am losing inches – but I was beginning to feel a bit crampy at times…and that’s not good.

    I do yoga at home with my videos – but like most – on my own it’s a short session and not frequent : -) and so I am going twice a week to a low-key yoga class….and I feel the difference immediately…

    We all need to keep ourselves flexible…and oddly enough, by adding yoga to my life – I have suddenly lost weight!

    As we age, that flexibility is important – the stretching and working at staying more “moveable” is good for all bodies.

    An old saying [I can’t find the origin of] is: “whatever the question – the answer is more yoga.”
