Wow.  Ok, I was not expecting these numbers. I've had an unexpected issue with anxiety, which has led to me not being as active as normal (not that that is a good thing, but I haven't been walking to work or going swimming).  In particular I'm really not sure why my muscle percentage went up so much compared to normal.  But for the weight, I guess I haven't been eating tons because there's been a knot in my stomach which has left me feeling not very hungry. I keep eating more because I know my body needs the fuel.  I have eaten some bad for me things (like a bit too much pepperoni  pizza last night), but other than that I have been striving to eat healthily.

Going into this week, I'm going to try doing a little bit of yoga every day (or at least most days).  To get me off to the right start, I tried out Element: 5 Day Yoga today, which is with Ashley Turner (a yoga instructor I have never tried before).  I like that her DVD has five short segments, much like the 10 Minute Solutions DVDs (but these segments are 15 minutes each).  I'm not entirely sure what I thought of this DVD though because I found it a little hard to follow in a few cases.  I put two of the five segments together, ending up with about a 30 minute practice (there were a few minutes added on to start and end, so it was longer, but there were times where I couldn't figure out what exactly was going on, so that shortened things up a bit).

I wanted to add a bit of yoga into my days last week, but that didn't end up happening (I don't really know why not); I'm going to make more of an effort to fit it (or Pilates) in this week.  I haven't decided how many days I want to be fitting it in - I'm thinking about four or five (assuming I get back to swimming one or two days this week).  We shall see how it goes!!!

As a side note, this is post 300!!!!  It's hard to believe that not only has this blog been around for 10 years,  but that I've also managed to make 300 posts in that time (considering there's been a number of years where I haven't posted much!)
