Yesterday we took a walk up to the Cathedral to see the decorations. I was so pleased that I was able to walk up that big hill to the Cathedral and not feel winded. I took some nice pictures while we were there. The iPhone 11 Pro Max has such a good camera system!
We usually have a decent crowd for our annual New Year’s Eve dinners but this year we were a small group. For dinner it was just our friends Michael and Kevin. Later the Dails joined us for the new year. We rang in the new year with bubbles and the ball drop on TV. Here’s to a great 2020! Let’s hope for some big changes this year!
Today my husband came home from spending 5 day with his family in New Orleans. This evening we exchanged gifts since we weren’t together on Christmas Day. For some reason I have no pictures of me opening my gifts but a few of him opening his. I think we both enjoyed the gifts we gave each other. I got some pajama pants, some shaving supplies, candy and a nice gift card to the Apple store!
Today I had a good walk outside. I walked just over two miles. This time I went up low incline hills and got my heart rate up over 100 bpm. I felt really good and didn’t feel too tired at all. My heart worked great. I’d like to get up to three miles but that will take some time. I was also able to close all three rings on the Apple Watch today. I haven’t lost anymore weight this week though. I’m still at 214. All in good time.
Now that I’ve had a heart attack and have started to get my nutrition figured out I’m going to get back to walking. I started yesterday by just taking a little walk around the neighborhood. It was a nice day and I walked on flat sidewalk. I didn’t want to get too heated or get my heart rate up to high too fast.
Today I got back to the treadmill. It was a cloudy day and didn’t feel like walking outside. I walked just over a mile and kept the speed at a decent level. Again, I didn’t want to get to hot or get the heart rate up. I did walk much farther than I did yesterday though so that’s a good start.
