I'm doing foodtastic, thank you.

It's the middle of the holiday week, and only a few days left until the New Year. Frankly, I don't know how much more eating I can take. Turkey, roast beef, stews, soups and desserts-- the sooner the year ends the better. As the waistband gets a little tighter, and the paunch gets a little bigger, I'm trying to figure out how I can keep a regular work out schedule. I started working out four days ago, and I did mighty well. Christmas and the purging of junk got in the way, and I don't think I will find much time between now and Wednesday to work out. I think it scares me that I could become fat, but to be honest, this developing Rubenesque figure does make me feel a little more womanly.

I'll just make a mental note to block out my trip to Loblaws though. As I was buying groceries this past weekend, this woman stopped me to ask me a few questions for a Goodlife Gym survey. Why me? Was it because I was rummaging through the chocolate bin for dark chocolate almond bark? Did it look like I needed to go to the gym? She only asked about half a dozen questions, but with each question my answer became more of a stare off into space as I thought to myself, why I wasn't working out more.

I've managed to get some rest during the break, and I do feel motivated to be more active. I've been doing something every day that gets me going, and when I have more time I put myself through a good workout.

It's not much but it's a start!
