Another day another stupid hate my face day… Okay, that didn’t flow at all‼️ My 21 day fix kit arrived today, finally, yippee! I’m still excited about it. I know that physically, I’m probably about a gazillion miles away from being able to do the exercises. Both strength and endurance wise. So they will likely be too hard for me. They’re not the type of workouts that you can just jump into and be ready to go. Well, for me. Keep in mind that over the past two years I’ve been spending many many hours in my bed or on the couch. Not just being lazy, but unable to function. I can’t go from that minimal activity level and do some of these workouts. It’s probably not safe to jump right into these videos without at least some basic day to day activities that keep you somewhat physically prepared. Tonight I did the “yoga fix” workout and she was talking about it being their easy stretching and relaxing non-extreme for the week. Which is why I chose to try it. I definitely worked up a sweat and found it quite difficult. This just reinforces the fact that my body has to slowly get used to moving again. I ordered the “Tai Chen” kit. This exercise includes slow and deliberate moves including physically correcting how we move and hold our bodies. It’s developed by Dr Chen (hence the name). He uses kinetic science stuff (obviously not their words – I’m just done in today – lol!!) to retract you how to carry your body and move your body. He corrects your alignment and really gets rid of aches and pains, cricks and cracks. Then in the second part of the video he teaches how to properly do certain Tai Chi moves or sequences. It is a ninety day program that slowly has you learning a long Tai Chi sequence that you do with your corrected movements and body positions. (I’m so sorry about the poor description, I’m so so tired right now… my brain just doesn’t want to work!) Anyway, my point is that once this kit arrives I will begin the 90 day program and also continue following the 21day fix meal plan. I needed to get something more realistic for me to complete. Maybe then, I can begin one of the other, more physically demanding workouts. I’m feeling positive and motivated to follow through and complete my 21 days feeling good about myself. Then I just continue with the food plan for the next 21 days and he next and the next…as long as it takes to lose the millions of pounds I’ve gained so get the past few years! I’m super tired and tomorrow will be a long day. The kids and I are going to Rocky Mountain House to visit my good friend Holly and her kids. Eating healthy may be harder then when I’m at home!! Hopefully I can stay on track and buy whatever groceries I need, without offending my friend. I’m sure it’ll be fine. We’re pretty close, so it should be fine. 💤Night night sleep tight💤
