Lookin' Fine in 2009

The new year often brings hope of some change in our lives, whether it be circumstances, commitments, or changes in habits. I have never had weight loss in mind until this year. It has been hard to accept that the baby weight is not coming off on its own. I never realized how good I had it not having to exercise to stay the same size. Well, I have now joined the majority of the human race who needs to dedicate him/herself to staying fit. Sigh. I don't know if Tim gained sympathy weight or if it's just all the extra time he has spent sitting in a chair editing, but either way he has also seen new numbers on the scale...

Soooo we decided to make a change and we are really excited about it! I know this enthusiasm may dwindle over the next month but I think the accountability to each other is certainly going to help us stick with our goals. Plus, we are making exercise fun with the Wii Fit! So far, I would say the ski slalom, hula hooping, and strength training exercises are our favorites. I love that it tracks your weight, BMI, and amount of exercise. Of course, we need to do more than just the wii to see a big change but it is certainly a great start while we are stuck indoors for winter. And the perk is we're having fun quality time together in the process!
