Fit

So now that Mason is one (almost 14 months already) I decided it's time to get started on that swimsuit body...yea right. I'll never get THAT, but I am serious about getting fitter. For Christmas we got "The Biggest Loser" for the Wii so I'm gonna give that a shot. I have 2 (!) months this summer to get serious and lose some pounds. Ian's off this summer too and he's on board (he's got this P90X workout he wants to do) so we're hoping that we'll accomplish something. As soon as school/daycare is out and done we're starting.

I've been wanting to get fitter and eating healthier for awhile but this past year with everything going on, we haven't been able to catch up on ANYTHING so this summer is about catching up and relaxing and working on ourselves a bit. I need to destress a lot and this summer will help that, I think. I'm pretty excited about starting this whole workout thing and we'll see how it goes.

I've never been one to workout to a video or DVD. I've always preferred biking or walking outdoors. I've been to a gym exactly once, in university, and it really wasn't that great (for me). I'm sure other people get great workouts in at the gym, but it's not for me. I feel too self-conscious and prefer to do my own thing.

We've also got a whole bunch of healthy recipes we've been wanting to try. So this summer I'm cooking, working out, and enjoying the outdoors with the kids! Life could't get any better, could it?

Therefore, "Biggest Loser" here I come! I'll keep you posted as to how it's going!
