I have no machine at home. We recently moved and joined the local Y. I love it. I take the kids to school and then go and work out. I love the fact that they are good quality machines, and I won't have to deal with any maintenance problems. Not that they've had any since I've been there, but I've had various pieces of equipment -- usually cheap stuff--- and when something breaks, you're out of luck. They make the cheaper stuff disposable. It's also nice to change things up, although the elliptical is my favorite, by far. If I was ever going to invest in something for my home, it would be that. But I'm surprised at how well I like working out there. It's kind of no-nonsense-- just get in, get the job done and go home.
I just logged my food at calorie-count.com. Yikes! I have gotten out of the habit of doing that, but it is essential for me. I didn't think I did that bad today, but even with all the exercise, I still barely burned more than I consumed. I have to get out of this mindless eating habit I've gotten into.
I was logging in my food, and thinking I was done, and thought -- wow - not good, but could be worse. Well, I had forgotten to log in my entire lunch!
Every calorie counts... every calorie counts.... every calorie counts.......
THINK THINK THINK THINK!!!!!!!
