Ok, EVERYONE makes New Year's Resolutions, but this year I am sticking to mine. After the last Dr visit, we determined that I eat a LOT of sugar and carbs, don't get my heart rate up unless I am mad at someone or smoke a cigarette and I am officially overweight for the first time in my life.
I started the diet...sort of and it wasnt too hard, except for the sugar. I ate the protein and fruit for snacks, drank the "Smart Water" and it was then I learned just how much sugar I ate. I woke up at 1:30 am craving something sweet. (Yeah, I gave in and ate a bowl of cereal).
So today I asked Joe to get the treadmill out of storage and set it up. He and the boys rearranged the family room, dragged it downstairs and made predictions about just how many times I would use it before I quit.
Mike said "Maybe she will have a heart attack on it and then we can get rid of all the Crapbook Stuff and Sewing Crap and have the whole room to ourselves." NICE!
After they set it up, Joe and the boys had to get the dogs and put them on leashes and try to teach them to run the treadmill. MEN!
GROAN! I will lose 20 lbs by June. They say if you tell someone you are more likely to keep your resolution, so I will tell all of you.

Good luck with the resolution! I'm sure one of the many dogs will keep you company on the treadmill...except maybe Paco, who never leaves his hole.
Put all the excercise things down there and you can start up a 'Chins Gym' and make some extra cash.
