I've been trying to get into a new routine that includes going to the gym every morning. We wake up between 7-7:30, eat breakfast, get dressed, brush our teeth, and then we're off to the gym. I've been really good about it the past two weeks. Sebastian loves going to the Kids Club there, so it's a good thing for both of us. I've been going to some new classes. I like Spin, and I also tried Power Yoga yesterday. That's a good one too. Very challenging! Body Blast is a toning class that is a great workout, but I just like the faster paced workouts. I wish there were more Spin classes during times that I could go. But today I ran a little bit for the first time since the marathon. It was good. I'm going to try to incorporate speed work and hill work. I don't know if we're going to do the Memorial Day half marathon this year, but I want to be ready in case I decide I want to.
Now if only I could get my eating habits in check, I'd be set. Actually I feel like I've been doing a little better. I bought Jessica Seinfeld's 'Deceptively Delicious' cookbook. The recipes use pureed fruits and vegetables that you can't even notice. It's a great way to incorporate healthier eating, and I really like that. I'm not keeping track of my points, necessarily, but I'm just trying to make good choices. I know what a sensible breakfast is. That part is easy. Then I have a snack when we get home from the gym. Lunch and dinner are the harder parts of my day, I guess. With these recipes, hopefully I'll be able to do better.

I bought that book as well and I really like it. I have only made a couple of things from it but they were all good. I want to try the blueberry breakfast bars. They look yummy and I love blueberries.
I am very jealous that you get to work out. I feel like such a slug because my doctor has told me that I cannot run or workout for awhile.
