My Blessed Little Life

It's amazing that it is already January...and almost the end at that! A few months have passed since I've last logged in. My exercise plans kind of came to a halt when school started back up. I haven't done very well at balancing school, family AND exercise. Unfortunately, my body is feeling it right now, too. It is time to get back to it! I just joined a gym here in town, and with the help and encouragement of some coworkers, I am recommitting to a healthier lifestyle. I've worked out twice this week already, and it is only Tuesday! I need this to continue. If nothing else, it can be a little stress relief in my day! Today's exercise: treadmill, 30 minutes.

Well, the woman's challenge is almost here! My family has signed up and are counting down the days until we get started. They have each gotten a pedometer to count there steps. Noah came in yesterday wearing his and had logged almost 14000 steps! I wish I had the kind of energy the kids have. I am looking forward to the extra push this challenge should give me to get out there and get moving! If anyone is looking for more encouragement, try going to Sparkpeople.com. It is a free website dedicated to diet and exercise. It has helped me a lot so far! http://www.sparkpeople.com

Good morning everyone! This is the first blog post for the newly minted Walking Warriors challenge team. I hope that this will be a great opportunity for us to get some healthy exercise in and get to talk to each other a little more as well! I am really looking forward to starting the challenge. If you haven't signed up yet I encourage you to do so!
