Healthy eating and exercise a walk to the lake... 😊

β€’5 Replies

Hi everyone,

As well as eating well its important to have enough exercise and here's where I went for a walk this afternoon. It's a fishing lake in the forest owned by the forestry commission and there were quite a few birds that are keen on fish here including some greylag geese which are the largest geese in the UK.

My average heart rate was 85 bpm ranging from 65 - 121 it was 4.6 miles and I took 9200 steps it was a lovely afternoon for a walk especially somewhere as nice as this, making a very healthy way to spend a couple of hours on a sunny afternoon.

My BMI is 20.2 and as it was in the 19's most of last year I'm very pleased with this. 😊

Hi Hidden

What a lovely view - a gorgeous lake - and Congratulations on your step count, and stats - it is great to hear your BMI has improved and you're feeling good! I agree that having enough exercise is such a healthy thing, and the benefits of communing with Nature are vast.

Thank you Zest, I don't compare with your steps but that doesn't matter as its what works for us. Its also good for the mind and soul being out amongst nature in the fresh air. 😊

Thank you Gunsmoke and on both counts, now you've taken the first step so are on your way to achieving your goals and you're in good company on here for that. 😊
