….and we’re off….

the new year is off and running. so far we are surviving near arctic conditions, without the added benefit of extra hours of sunshine! our furnace was wonky for a day and one of our cars stopped running. on the bright side we are all reasonably healthy and rested from our time off the last couple of weeks. since today is the first day of the first week of the new year, i’m kicking off the eating healthy thing. i don’t have any crazy ideas like giving up caffeine (done that before), but more of a conscious and healthy eating routine.

my good friend onebetamom started the b-i-w-i routine….bite it, write it. this seems like a public and eye-opening way to really ‘see’ what you are eating, what your pitfalls are and how you can make better choices. i’m going to give this a try. now she is counting calories, making protein smoothies and *gasp* exercising. well, i don’t want to go all crazy, but i think i’ll start by writing down what i eat and then add some exercise soon!

the YMCA seems to be the best bang for our buck. ours is close by, offers a wide variety of classes, pilates anyone? so i’m adding this to my ‘to do’ list for the week….join the Y.
