EXERCISE -- GOTTA LOVE IT

Just an update to let everyone know that I am still on track with my exercise. Since January 1, I have walked 125 miles and logged 29 hours on the Wii Fit. I know that sounds a little excessive, but I am trying to counteract my love of food. I just have a hard time saying NO to those fattening chips and cheese and chocolate. I have had very little sweets this month and have almost cut out all soft drinks. I do slip up occasionally, although it helps that I have joined AFA's boycott of Pepsi products (and unfortunately that includes Mountain Dew, my favorite). I really did not have the caffeine withdrawal that I thought that I would have, even though I never allowed myself to have more than one a day. I think my focus on walking and staying active really helps. It also helps to keep track on my calendar what I am walking and other exercise. I am considering doing a spin class at the gym in New Albany, but am afraid that my walking everyday will hinder me from doing well in the class. I am trying to decide if it is worth it to skip walking that day to do the class. I have until Tuesday to decide about the class. I will post on Wednesday if I was brave enough to try it or not. Well, I need to get to bed so that I can get up early to walk -- Yea!, about the walking, not the early part.

  1. Way to go! Enjoy walking in the nice southern weather! I wish I could enjoy a morning walk. Single digit temps have kept us all inside lately. I'm proud of you! Keep up the good work.
