Day 3
I really didn't do anything. I ate my small meals. I drank an extra glass of water. My ankle is wrapped and really painful. My hips feel displaced. I have a Chiro appt tomorrow morning. I am looking forward to it.
I folded clothes. I took a bath.
Today sucked.

Day Two

Today I went out among the English and visited the Chiropractor. A new one. She was fantastic!
Just a little walk, nothing else other than advanced heart rate with driving this evening. I see the doc Friday for another adjustment.
I got some new probiotics from her. They should be better than the Walgreens crap I have.

To start, I am NOT an athletic person. I don't like to sweat. I love to sit. I am a couch potato.
Thank being said, I am going to try and lose weight.
I am starting this blog to show what does and doesn't work for me, to keep myself honest about my eating and moving and to generally make fun of myself.
So today I am doing this:

Main Move: Wall Bridge: (tones back, butt)

Lie on back with butt against wall, arms at sides, knees bent, and feet planted 3 to 4 feet up wall. Exhale and peel lower and mid back off floor, keeping shoulder blades down, so body forms a nearly straight line from chest to knees. Hold for a deep inhale, then exhale and slowly roll back down.

MAKE IT HARDER Cross right ankle over left knee so only left foot is on wall, then roll up, pause, and lower. Do the full number of reps, then switch feet.

MAKE IT EASIER Don't use the wall. Keep feet flat on floor as you lift into a bridge; pause and slowly lower.

I am big enough that this hurts like hell.
I have a chiropractic appointment tomorrow so I can add walking to the mix.
