New Year, New Me

So after watching The Biggest Loser I decided that I was going to try to get my behind back into exercising (since I've been such a slacker since the colder weather started).  I did two yoga workouts on Exercise on Demand.  I feel energized but a little sore (I'm sure this will be much worse tomorrow).  Now I just have to do this 3-5x/wk.  In an effort to help me do this I joined the Pound for Pound Challenge on biggestloser.com.  I'm hoping that the thought of having them provide food for needy people will give me the incentive I need to do this.

On a different note, while checking out the stuff on Exercise on Demand I saw that they have yoga for kids.  I thought this might be a fun thing for Collin to try so after his nap we set up the mat and acted like Australian animals.  He had a blast and it was really cute.  I did this along w/him to try to demonstrate and actually got my heart rate up from jumping up and down like a kangaroo and a frog and running in place.  I guess he and I can do this regularly b/c he got very upset when it was over and I put up the mat for lunch.  :-)
