a resolutions update
Kelly is continuing the “show us how you live” themes on her blog, which I love. It gives me something to talk about every week!
My resolutions were to limit my computer time at home, be healthier, save more money. So far, I’m 3-for-3!
I’ve managed to stay off the computer more at night. That was one of my biggest challenges. I don’t really have a lot of freelance work going on right now, so I can devote my time to my husband and mindless television shows. (The Bachelor started this week, so I have that to get sucked into…though I didn’t really watch the entire premier on Monday.)
As far as being healthier, I’ve worked out every day using the Wii Fit. The “game” is working me like I haven’t been worked in a while. My legs hurt from the “walking.” My abs hurt for four days. I finally gave them a break for one day, only to hurt all over again when I did the abs workout.
And the saving money part? I’ve done pretty well with the eat-in challenge. We figured out that if we stick with this for the month, we’ll save around $250 for the month. On an average week, we eat out on Friday nights, Saturday for lunch and a lot of times on Saturday nights. It adds up. Oh, and the eat-in challenge is helping me by eating healthier.
So how are your resolutions going? Did you make any?
WOOT WOOT, you are doing great. Thanks for sharing your experience with the wii fit. My husband has been wanting to buy it.
Congrats on 3 for 3. So do you like the wii fit more then the 30 day shred? I already have the fit. I could save the money since that was one of my resolutions.
Freelance is so slow this time a year. I am ready for it to pick back up.
The Wii Fit is a really good start. I’ve liked it a lot over the past two weeks and make sure that I’m getting in at least 30 minutes of exercise to make it worth the effort. I ended up getting the Shred DVD on Amazon for under $10, though, so that was a huge investment for 2009 š
I agree with your challenge of limiting the time on the computer at home, it can easily become an hour that I’ve been checking on things. I am going to ry to limit it to 30 minutes a night during the week and hopefully can catch up some at lunch!
