Starting my 10,000 steps a day
Finally, the watch has arrived from yesterday while I was having my day off from exercise.
It is color pink to suit for a girl like me. My husband chose this color. I downloaded the Health app to my Huawei phone and connected the device via Bluetooth.
The watch is ready to be used the moment I wake up so I was kind of excited to see how many steps I can do in a day. The goal is to do 10K steps a day.
Here is a photo of me wearing my exercise clothes. I always wear a t-shirt but I am just trying to flex my muscle. Lol
So, yeah, I am fat.
Elise just woke up but Alexandre already made a mess. I picked up all the toys later on.

If you are wondering how I am able to achieve at least 10k steps today. Because I am doing INDOOR WALKING and I found this YouTube videos made by Grow With Jo. You can do the exercise inside the house and just walk in place. I do the beginner workouts.
My first exercise for 15 minutes, I've done 2K steps for at least 1 Km. In between, I do 100 squats every day. I did breathing exercise for 1 minute. I made another 2 Km exercise for 20 minutes. It felt so good.
After I finished every work out, I need to attend my kids, give them food, shower and repeat. When they play, I can continue doing my workout.
Before 6 or 7 PM, I've done 8k steps already so I was very closed to 10k steps.
And just like that, I made 12k steps before 9PM. What an accomplishment!? I am so proud of myself.
FYI. The steps are a mixed of doing the workout for about a total of 70 minutes and walking around the house doing home chores. There are times my kids want to be in my arms so I hold Elise or Alexandre when I do my workout. They are my extra weights. LOL
They love to be involve when I do my exercise. They enjoy being carried. Heavy kids, whew!
I still have a bloated tummy because I always have a good dinner. I am not losing weight as I am hungry and Elise is still breastfeeding. I am happy to say that I'm slowly working out on my endurance. But I need to strengthen my core that hopefully, I can have my flat stomach back. It takes time, I know.
I am still 53 kg and my ideal weight to return to is 48 kg. I used to be 46 kg from 2016 to 2018.
I am eating healthy here so there is no way I need to cut out my food intake. I am just really hungry.
I am happy to move so I dont care if I am not losing weight yet.
