Keep moving (Imperfect women in a perfect life)

I’m heading to the gym for a minimum of 45 minutes of cardio.  I’m behind on the water consumption today so I’ll try to catch up.
I’m making absolutely no progress on an early bedtime so I’m not getting out of bed any earlier.  So…after wasting the better part of my day on computer games, I’m [...]

Imperfect Woman (progress update)

Since nobody commented, I can assume very few people (if any) are reading this and I can ramble all I want.
I met my goal of a 45 minute cardio workout and 48 oz of water.  I have continued with the water daily and have completed one other 45 minute workout (Saturday).   I also stepped [...]

The imperfect woman in a perfect life.

So my hubby asked if I wanted to keep this blog since I have not used it for a year.  FB seems to have taken over our lives and our online comments.  The one thing missing on FB is creating a continuing story or connected content.  So, I think I want to keep this blog [...]

Who needs a gym?

What a great workout I have been getting by simply climbing the stairs! No special equipment needed.  I have been using a heart-rate monitor to try to gauge my pace and progress but it would be easy enough to just slow down when I start to feel tired and out of breath.  It’s a bit [...]

Weekend update

It was nice to sleep in a bit and then take a stroll to the bagel shop.  We walked to the post office and continued on to the bagel shop, which is about a mile away.  The breakfast bagels are good and it’s always entertaining to sit and watch the varied clientele.  Each time we [...]

Stair climb

Since I have started my fall baking spree, I also need to increase my calorie expenditure. On Monday I used the gym for an easy 50 minute workout. Last night just before bed I decided to walk the stairs. It wasn’t so bad getting to the 25th floor and down so I did it [...]

A good idea??

So on our first real day of rain, wind, and cooler temps, I decide to walk to the store for a few items.  It should be  a simple task with minimal effort…
Since I am trying to conserve gas and get a bit more exercise it seemed like a reasonable choice to walk to the store.  [...]

Eating well and getting fit

It’s a common theme for a Monday for many people, myself included.  Get back on track with diet and exercise.  I won’t make any big changes and in fact have been focusing on eating well for quite some time.  It’s the exercise part that is sporadic.  Hubby and I both walk quite a bit but [...]

Bonding with the family

Thanks to Nate for inviting us all to his graduation this weekend. I certainly had a great time! If you really want to bond with your family members…plan a transit trip with no clear way home.  After a quick tour of San Francisco Sunday afternoon 5 of us, covering 3 generations, spend almost 4 hours [...]

Hill and Dale

I had a goal this week to hit the gym and get back into the fitness scene.  Well walking the streets of SF will fill-in nicely for the work out room.  I may still use some of the workout equipment here but the hills will really help me tone up.  This morning I walked 3 [...]
