Exercise

Maybe I should clarify that I did not like PE. I am not good in sports and in general I do not like to exercise. However Sam's family started a biggest loser contest and I joined. Because as much as I love my little boy, I really would like to lose the rest of the baby weight. I have been trying to eat less, but I like to eat and I like candy. I admire my friends who are doing PX90 challenge but that is just way too dedicated for me. So I did the bike at the gym and rode 3 miles today. Then I came home and did crunches... Don't laugh but I was proud of myself for doing 30. Hyrum decided I was in the perfect position to play airplane so I finished off with that. I borrowed my sister's pilates tape and did that twice in the last 2 weeks so I really need to get in gear.

I have been somewhat inspired by so many of my friends who have participated in marathon or triathlon but really a hot bath and a good book sound much more enjoyable than torturing yourself to get in shape. However I did enjoy one story about how friends can help motivate you.
When my friend Whitney posted a blog http://whitneydibble.blogspot.com/2009/11/10-minute-mile.html For Myra's birthday she wanted Whitney to run a 10 minute mile. I think that is crazy...I would agree with Whitney for my birthday give me a pedicure!

And yes... I do realize that today is February 1st and not January 1st but it is never too late to start good habits. And yes I do procrastinate. I had decided not to make any new years resolutions because I usually break them. So this year I am not making a resolution rather I am improving my habits.

And my sister Deedra is making biscuits and gravy tomorrow to test how dedicated I really am. So we shall see if I will not overeat on one of my favorite meals...
