Hey -- I'm back on the wagon. Vacation is over -- and its time to hit it. I will do better supporting this group. I PROMISE...And I'm sorry I've stunk it up the past month and a half.

Have any of you all ever put your children in gym daycare? I feel SO GUILTY about starting this -- but I feel like I don't have a choice. I know there are benefits (she'll see me working out, making exercise a priority etc) and its only an hour -- but still.

Okay they are back. I don't think I have a handle on this place just yet.

Do it Ally! Stop with the guilt. You'll be a better mom as a fit mom! Take some time for yourself. Guilt free!

Ally, if we don't get them active when they are young, they will be the ones to pay later. You're doing a good thing!

Sprints nearly killed me this morning! It was so humid, at least the sun wasn't out that early. I got up and got it over with by 7 am. I will get really good exercise Friday. We are going up early to hike about 3 miles up the mountain, then float the creek, and camp for the night.

That is what they have at my gym the Precor it is a awesome machine and I know what you mean about having less pressure on your knees using those machines. I was changing things up with the bike, treadmill and then the elliptical and the days I used the treadmill my knee was killing me so I have eliminated using that thing.

We have a LifeFitness elliptical. It was less that the Precor but more than the Nordictrac (We priced all of them). I love the LifeFitness machines at the gym -- which is why I was so hung up on this one.

I'll take a picture and post it...we use it all the time. We are getting ready to have it serviced -- because it is making a little noise but there is no motor -- so very little maintenance is needed. I'll let you know next Tuesday if I am hating it or not.

Well, no camping and hiking this weekend for me! Hubby qualified for a golf tournament he has been wanting to play in and the first party is tomorrow evening, then one Friday and the big blow out on Saturday! Needless to say, I will drink enough carbs and calories to do me in for a month LOL! Oh well, come Sunday I will have to hit it hard to get back on track. This weekend will be a blast though!!!!!
