Exercise Has Started

Weights
Aim to get toned – Gotta lift more weights

I made it to aqua aerobics today and was very pleased with myself. The workout was good and the instructor worked us hard. Legs and arms are a bit wobbly and after a lot of weights with the resistance from the water, I think I will sleep well tonight.

While doing my exercise I had fantasies of having the well-toned, worked out body of my dreams. To reach this ideal, more time at the gym, walking and at aqua is needed.  Today was a good start and it is a step in the right direction, now just got to stick with it.

With the kids back at pre-school I am hoping to fit more exercise in. Do you find it tough to fit in exercise now you have kids? I definitely do.

The plan tomorrow is to do some Wii Fit, Tuesday some walking, and Wednesday more aqua, then maybe more walking on Thursday/Friday and of course some more Wii Fit. Then Sunday will do more aqua aerobics. This is my plan and I hope to stick to it.

Do you have a routine to fit in exercise? I find that once I get back exercising it m

akes such a difference, I have more energy, I am happier and I feel better about myself. Exercise might also make me feel better about losing more weight, so that would make me happier anyway. Send in your stories about how you manage to get fit with kids.

3 years and beyond Feeling Frumpy University Study

Sun, exercise and study

Today I went for a nice long walk in the sunshine. It was wonderful to be all on my own and to be finally exercising. Yesterday I did about 20 minutes on the Wii Fit and then it was a bit crazy with the fact the kids kept on pulling out toys, hard to have room to do things with the floor filling up with toys and junk.

So now mummy and daddy have had lunch and rested. The girls got a vegemite sandwich each and not much has been eaten.  I am about to do some study and work on my assignment for university, while the girls and daddy are in the backyard.

Daddy however wants to tidy and clean the backyard and the kids are more interested in building houses out of branches and leaves, and making a mess.  Off to get my cuppa tea and get started on the study. Wish me luck, hoping to not get interrupted.

What do you have planned for the day or the weekend?  Have you had time to yourself to do what you like or exercise? I must say that just going for that walk made me feel ten times better about myself.  Note to self, fit it more walking. Send your comments in.
