In response to lots of questions about my typical day, I am posting the general outline. This plan has worked for ME since the end of 2018, when I decided to make some major changes in my health, happiness and overall fitness. Of course, there’s a lot more detail under each of these headings. This gives the general look of my day, including: food, fitness, health, and a generic layout of how I schedule to fit it all in. My day starts, typically at 5:00 AM and ends around midnight. I start off with a detox drink in the morning and have found my best fitness and muscle building results come with doing multi-tasking, working cardio first thing, followed by a 1 minute plank. If I do this, I feel great, even if my day turns where I am able to do nothing else physical. Next up, fruit and coffee, while packing meal-prepped family lunches. After school drop-off & quick errands, I enjoy a working breakfast. Below, my usual routine is summed up in images. A few notes: I do include movement and some quick bursts of muscle building all day. Squats can be completed anywhere, with no equipment; next to a desk, in a kitchen, even on break, in the employee area or restroom of a work establishment. Doing 20 - 30 squats at a time, throughout the day can drastically improve your fitness and physique - as they work core, balance, and legs all at once. At first I felt silly if anyone caught me doing these. Now, it’s a standing joke “have to get me squats in”…I even have others doing it too! I encourage you, if you are just starting out, and don’t know where to start, just do a 1 minute plank (on the ground, a counter, or against a wall every day. Add 20 squats each day and see what happens after sticking with it for 2 weeks. 2 weeks!!! That’s what it takes to begin a new habit, shift mindset, and see some change. Please let me know if you try this. I would love to hear some feedback! Now… for my day….keep in mind what I am sharing below is what works for me. You must find what works for you. I am not a health expert, I do encourage you to speak with your own healthcare provider about any diet, health or fitness activities you are considering. I hope you find a tip or 2 below helpful! photos © copyright SheDo50Too

After seeing this adorable dress on my “Amazon For you Page” I decided to give it a try. It is one of my favorite new summer pieces and I have been wearing on repeat lately. It’s bright and youthful, & oh so flowy. A shift - swing dress that’s casual, with a nice V-neck is the perfect spring and summer staple. This beautiful dress works for any shape and size. Pair it with different shoes and belts to change it up. It’s available in lots of colors and an array of styles, but I just love the colorful geometric print for work, date-night, and day outings. It’s 100% Dacron, which is a breathable, comfortable, very soft wrinkle resistant fabric. It’s machine washable and able to tumble dry. There are more than a dozen colors and prints available, short sleeve, long sleeve and sleeveless options too. This has more than 60,000 positive reviews and comes in size small to xxl so there’s a size for just about everyone. At first glance I thought this dress was entirely too large; I normally wear xtra-small, however, after trying a few styling options I decided I love it. I have worn it belted as shown in this photo. Photo rights ©SheDo50Too Shop the dress on Amazon at this link ![]() Another great styling option for this, or any flowing dress, is to use garment clips that work as back tighteners just to cinch the waste a little bit. These clips shown in my photo below, work so well for open front tops and sweaters too. They even tighten the sides of pants, back of a coat - the options are endless. You can find an 8 piece set that comes with a cinch clips, cardigan collar clips, shirt clip and shawl clips at the link below. There are a variety of options to choose from. You can shop the clips here at think link. I have decided, that I equally love my new dress loose and flowy, especially if I am in and out of the house. These days, with menopause well under way, temperatures rising, and a busy schedule, anything that breaths and keeps me cool while not wrinkling, showing perspiration and looking great - is a perfect outfit!

Leave me a comment and let me know if you try this dress. I would love to hear feedback. Everyone’s size and shape is different so the look may vary, but I believe this is a great option no matter your figure. The dress is very roomy, so I believe it fits true to size. The sleeves have an elastic band at the wrist which makes it easy to wear them down or push them up for a bell look.
