Jumping on the Fitness Wagon... Again

I. am. sore. I am out of a shape in the worse possible way.

Jen took the day off work Wednesday and was insistent on going to join a gym. So we trekked all the way to West Lafayette to join Snap Fitness. So now we belong to a gym. It's only been two days and I'm already looking for excuses to not go today. My main reason being that I went twice yesterday so that should more than make up for not going today, right? I'm pretty sure my body needs a bit of a break. The extent of my exercising is usually just walking around the block or what-not. I'm not used to treadmills or ellipticals or stationary bikes and definitely not lifting weights. So needless to say, my body is probably pretty angry at me right now.

Plus I can't find my EasyFit. So if I go to the gym, I won't be able to track my calories. The EasyFit is basically a pedometer-like contraption we're supposed to wear and it keeps track of how many calories we're burning throughout the day, whether exercising or not. Plus it keeps track of "EasyFit" points. Which basically is a score of how active you've been throughout the day. The more active you are, the more points you get.

I've beginning to think that Jen stole mine so she could rack up more points than me today. Which sucks cause I may not be planning on going to the gym today but I was going to clean a bit today. So I could have easily surpassed her today. She probably hid it in the mountain of clean clothes piled on the dresser that need to be put away as a ploy to get me to put them away. Hmm.

Seriously though, I do plan going to the gym a lot now that we have a membership. I'm not one to waste money so I'm not going to waste the money we've put into it so far. Plus, like I've said before, I need to lose weight. And at least i have some sort of motivation now. If I don't go, I've thrown away all that money. I'm not willing to do that.

Boiler Up!
On a completely unrelated note, last weekend was yet another Purdue game. This one went nothing like the previous game. We lost. And we lost bad. But it was still good times. I had to share a few Lily pictures from that game. Jen made Jello shots for the game and Lily enjoyed them! Hers were obviously alcohol-free.
Bottoms Up!







Good to the last drop!
