Pilates

Good evening readers! As you know, I've been trying to stay up with my exercising. I haven't been to Curves in over a week...Shame on me, I know. Work has been a little crazy busy. I've been trying to do some at home in the evening, though.


I was at one of the schools today, that I go to pretty often to do technology lessons and trainings, and they have a twice a week or so exercise group of a few teachers and staff. I decided to join them after school today and they were going through a Pilates tape and using the huge, bouncy balls. Boy, am I sore in the tummy, not to mention the bottom!! LOL. If I feel like this now, what is it going to be like when I try to roll out of bed in the morning? I needed the good workout, though, as I have never tried much of the Pilates stuff before. I have mostly been a step aerobics or Curves girl.

My goal is to get back into Curves next week, but will visit my Pilates pals when I can also!

Have a wonderful evening!

2009 Resolutions - Better a Week Late than Never!

Well now that I've introduced myself, I have to publish my 2009 New Year's Resolutions. I'm banking on the fact that actually writing them down in ink in a regular paper journal as well as posting them here will keep me somewhat motivated. We'll see!!

The deal is that I have gained about 15-20 unwanted pounds in the last year and a half or so. Not sure why. The only thing that I can think of is that when I am off work and am home, I eat because I'm bored. So my resolutions are pretty much the normal ones, but like I said I'm putting them here in print for whole blogoshpere to see! So here is my journal entry from yesterday, which is the first one I have done for 2009:

1/6/09 ___ lbs. (I have my weight written there; I won't blog that one though!)

For 2009:

• Eat healthier - Don't eat out of boredom****
• Be Active when getting home from work, don't just collapse on the recliner with the computer for the rest of the evening.
• Begin a blog and keep it updated
• Get back to drinking Green Tea - this was doing me good for a while there and I need to get back to it.

So, keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I try to take off some of those unwanted pounds and try to better my eating habits!!

Thanks for reading!

Susan
