Working out and I'm begining to look forward to it!

Over the last few days/week or two, I've been working out every day!!  This is such an accomplishment.  Never in my life have I worked so freaking hard at working out.  I could still eat better, that is my weakness-- and something I can't control as of yet.  Why??  Lack of money.  With this deployment, I don't have someone to share the funds when mine run low.  Even though, as my roommate/best friend/ex-boyfriend, we shared certain expenses when he is here.  But he helps, and Dad tries to help too.  BUT I honestly try not to ask for money.

So the food budget, even with the 100 in food stamps I have, is off.  I'm trying to learn how to coupon, but so far I spend more couponing than I do otherwise.  I need to learn.

But back to the workouts and such.  Just yesterday I remembered one of my Wii exercise games (we have a few) and I added Wii kickboxing to my routine.  And I'm up to biking 4 miles in about half an hour, which I'm extremely proud of.  And I'm lifting weights and doing resistance exercises, but I'm going to have to revamp what I do, to make it a better all around workout.

My first issue in my subscription to Shape magazine came in today.  I love the magazine, so when tanga offered a subscription for two dollars, I jumped at it.  Tanga is where I get all of my magazine subscriptions.  They are always for really cheap.

Next entry I am going to review Fitocracy, a website and fitness "game" where you log your workouts.

Till then.
