Day 3
2 minutes walking
1 minute stepping forward then stepping backwards with legs wider and out to the side
1 minute legs apart stepping tapping and twist body as you tap for waist workout
1 minute knees up and arms reaching up elbows to knees as the come up( hope this makes sense)
These may get a bit boring so add any you think might be better but at least it gets us moving well that was my hope doing it to music is good and I was keeping it short it you could do longer ones if you want.
I am getting better at drinking more water finally
Hope your both keeping.h on track.

2 minutes walking
1 minute punching to left and right twist body and leg and tap toe as you twist.
1 minute stepping 2 steps left and then 2 steps right clap hands as after the 2 steps and tap toe.

Remember you can increase the minutes if you want, I kept them at 5 minutes total but you can do more if you feel like it.
I plan to eat strawberries, orange and a pear today.
Have a good day!
