EXERCISE REGIMEN

Weight lost is more gratifying and faster, I feel when coupled with exercise. Honestly, It could be very hard in the beginning. I remember how out of breathe I was, panting uphill in Pulgas Ridge when I started. But I persevered  walking 2 miles three times a week slowly building stamina to a point where I graduated to hiking uphill as I increase my carb (vegetable) intake to support this actiivty

After having lost -13 lbs going on 3rd week into my low carb hi fiber diet, I started to take hikes uphill at  my favorite hiking place at pulgas ridge ,when, on a sunny day, the panorama could be breathe taking  .(here is when I say "consult a physician before taking on any diet or exercise") Because on my first hike I felt my sugar fell, got weak in the knees, cold sweats, nervousness, signs of hypoglycemia (low blod sugar level) and I had to chew on hard candy to get back my energy and estabilze my sugar level. Never hike alone.

I got this Nikeplus GPS app that records my regimen and document my progress.; here are a few hikes and walks ,I would like to share with you.













This was my favorite hike. It was a bit chilly but the sun was out and when we got to the very top,
we hanged for a few minutes sat on a rock and savor the view.
