So, I've thought long and hard about a good new years resolution and like many others I'm toying with the idea of starting a workout regimine. I know, I know what you're thinking. No one ever sticks to workout or dieting goals so there may not be much hope for me, but I'm going to try anyways.
I haven't been running since I was 3 months prego with Benn and I love the feeling I get after running for 30 minutes or so. The problem is...its winter and I absolutely do NOT run when there is snow on the ground. So, my solution? Russ and I are going to start working out on Monday at work during our lunch. Its really the only time we have to get a work out in with two little ones. I'd love a membership to a gym, but then we'd have to put the kiddies in daycare again (after being in daycare while we work all day) or have someone watch them for an hour at night so we could work out. And to be honest, I'd miss them too much. The nights fly by as it is so thats not feasible. If the gym is too packed and busy at work during lunch, I think I'll get a few great work out videos to at least work on toning my arms, stomach and tushie until the weather turns warmer to get out and run.
Just to be clear, there will be NO dieting. I already am a picky eater and to be honest, I HAVE to have my candy (gummy bears, sweet tarts, and york peppermint patties are irresistable to me)! Maybe I'll limit myself to one of these a day? I know these resolutions seem like a cop out - not really commiting to anything, but one thing I am going to commit to is to not overreact, stress out and enjoy life more this year than last. So, there it is...a new me for 2009!

You go girl! I've started running again too...it's going to be tough after a long day of work because I'll want to just hang out with my babies! So, I definitely know how you feel.
I miss you SO SO SO much! Congrats on the new wheels. I hope Benn and Avah are feeling better. Do we judge together at any other meets before the Sturgis Invite? We should definitely ride together! See you soon!
