To get an inspiration to write every day is like to have a  system of a diet or exercising: once you feel tired or almost giving up, put some more efforts into it, later it will feel very good.

Today we have started a day with a very extensive Pilates class at 9.30 am for more than an hour with some extra run under the rain as a bonus. I can not describe you how i love Pilates, you sweat, you laugh, you challenge yourself, and everything is happening very fast. I have decided to put a video here for those who might not know at all what I talk about. Here you have only 30 min lesson, so imagine what is happening during 1 hour.



I remember also i promised to tell you more about Withings. We have got the following wonderful Scales, which is a really smart body analyser. From yesterday i know all about fat % in my body, the weight, BMI and even the temperature of the room and the level of CO2. And its all connected automatically with Myfitnesspal, so everything is analysed and the only thing is left: Work out and Eat Healthy:)

And let's move quickly to another challenge: as much as i want to develop myself physically I am also not forgetting about my brain: i really love a new app called - Elevate. Every day i am getting some new exercises and trying to practice starting from new words in the vocabulary, ending with Math. Highly recommend to everybody who thinks that they know everything and in reality - nobody does!

Also yesterday was very lucky to get December issue of HBR and read an article about the "Understanding "New Power"". Highly recommend you to read it online especially if you are interested to understand your management and people in the company. And if you are yourself a manager : which side do you personally represent? I got completely a new perspective on my current situation.

" I can feel sugar on my teeth"...and  that is not a name of the song, it is me...counting calories, as i have advised you before NY. We have decided to use the app called : "Myfitnesspal" and so far it looks like fun. You can discover a lot of stuff about you and what everybody consumes every day, like "Black coffee" is only 2 kkcal and Caramel Latte on the another side will be: 68 kkal. Of course, you don't need to get too obsessed, but if you have very clear goal, like me...why not?

Also this app advises to drink 8 glasses of water every day minimum and do some exercises. For us we already booked 2 pilates classes this week and another, and this Saturday going to swim for minimum 1 hour. Plus suddenly we have opened the whole new world of low calories recipes, like this one:

We have tried it on NY and it was magnificent!

Let's toast this NY for the new knowledge!
