Getting Fit

There's been lots keeping me busy lately. Gil & I went on a diet/workout plan called Insanity. We just finished up the first week. I'm not doing the Insanity workout part...instead I'm back to doing the 30 Day Shred a couple of times a week and running on the other days. As far as the food goes, we eat 5 smaller meals throughout the day. So mostly I've been busy keeping up with preparing food with Gil and cleaning tupperware! But all in all, we both feel pretty good having eaten a lot healthier this week than we have been lately. This new diet is forcing us to eat at home for dinner, which we have been really bad about lately, so that's a good outcome already.

I bought the Nike + iPod sensor to track my runs on Nike.com and I think that will help keep me on track. Gil and I are also doing weigh-ins on Wii Fit.

So far, Gil has definitely stuck to the diet and exercising better than I have. But I have to say, I've been pretty good too. We set up a makeshift gym in the garage so that we can do our workouts out there, since our basement ceiling is too low for jumping and it's working out pretty well.

We're still thinking about getting a puppy this summer and that would increase my exercise w/more walking or running. Can't wait for that warm weather to come...
