Okay, so I get the bright idea yesterday to kick off a two week challange. For two straight weeks I am going to go to the gym every morning and totally give up soft drinks and try to stay away from junk food. I am also going to take my dog for a walk each night for some additional cardio. Walking around my subdivision is considered cardio because I literally live on a mountain and these hills make you feel the burn.
The best part of all is that my gym has an awesome child care program. It is a big open space with tons of activities, an indoor play set, t.v. area, video game area, etc. I never wanted to take the kids when they were babies and I hesitated at taking them recently because sure enough I would get all ready to go work out and they would cry and/or refuse to stay in there. One weekend I somehow convinced Jamey to take them with him and they LOVED it.
Riley had school yesterday and today and after dropping her off I went to the gym and Samuel had a grand time. Riley is excited that she gets to go tomorrow. I see this as a win win situation...they get a playdate and I get to work out, which I DESPERATELY need to do. I really REALLY hate to sweat but I think I hate being fat worse than I hate to sweat so we will see how the two weeks go.
Until tomorrow...good night and sweet dreams everyone!
Hell I have seen the hills in your neighbor hood, I would not be feeling the burn but dying of a heart attack. Good luck with your challenge. If anyone can do it, you can!
