Ugh

So it's been quite the while.  Hubby was pretty out of it with the flu, and son was home for fall break, and so I let myself slide.  We did end up being gone at least half the day both weekend days, so time was a bit tight, but I could have done more on some of those days as well.

Today, I tried doing that tae bo workout....though the vids were out of order so I missed 1/5th of it....it still about knocked me over.  I think I may try to get that in at least once a week.  I am thinking of trying a new mixup.  I know I want to do more yoga, not only is it good for my mental state, I want to not only loose weight but recover some of the flexibility I have lost over the years and develop more strength.  I have always loved some of the yoga poses that there is no way I can possibly do right now.  I will have to dig it out, but a while back I went through my yoga books and made up a workout that did the whole body.

I am thinking that if I do three days of cardio (possibly one of tae bo and two of the other cardio I liked), and then in between did the yoga workout with some upper body weights (my upper body strength has always been pathetic) and general stretching.  Minimum of 5 days, but I could either do more yoga on the weekend or just general stretching.  I think that is something that would be not only maintainable, but something that would be interesting, so that I wouldn't get bored with it, and would hit all of the areas I want to hit:  better overall fitness, building strength and flexibility and loosing weight.
