The First Five days...

So, I was REALLY excited to get my Wii Fit last Saturday. So much so that I opened it and set it up the minute I got home. It was love at first play. It is really easy to follow and very encouraging.

• Day one - 15 minutes and I was surprised I made it that far. Worked at yoga and running.
• Day two - 15 minutes, worked at yoga, running and tried step. Failed miserably at step.
• Day three - 15 minutes, worked at yoga, tried hula hoop and was surprised I could do it, and finally finished step!
• Day four - 20 minutes, running, yoga, hula hoops and I tried jack knife and found it easier than I thought. I was really gung-ho this day. It was 14 minutes at night when I got home on 6 minutes before work. I literally squeezed those six minutes in before I walked out the door for work.
• Day five - no Fit - was at work 16 hours. :`(

So that is my log so far. I was really proud to be on such a roll. Today is day six, I plan to work out tonight.

Oh, I lost 1 pound in the first four days. Hopefully I didn't ruin that with the last 2 days.

Blowing Smoke

So I smoked my last cigarette on January 8, 2009.

I didn't make a big deal out of it. When someone ask to bum a smoke, I just said I didn't have any. No one really noticed at first. However, when they did it spread like wildfire.

Again, technically I did not quite smoking. I just stopped. If I quit, that means I have a chance to not quit. Then people look at you with the evil-eye if you choose to have a cigarette.

Right now I am smoke free and enjoying it. Though, I had to figure out a way to take breaks at work now. My breaks use to be like clockwork. Now I have found other ways to hide from the servers. (wink)

TWENTY DAYS AND COUNTING!

My New Year NON-resolutions

Everyone makes New Year resolutions. Most are mad with good intentions. Other just out of pure fun. I have even made a few over the past 37 years. Truly, I cannot think of one that I actually stuck with. So with the start of 2009, I decided to my resolution was to not make any resolutions.

So, if I didn't...

1. Quick smoking
2. Exercise more
3. Lose weight

It would really wouldn't make that I failed.

So cheers (okay, technically it was 26 days ago, get over it)
