No judging

Have we all noticed a pattern? I update then disappear then eventually come back. I'm busy,k? Deal with it.

Today,however, I am pinned in a chair with a sick baby snoozing on my lap (the flu is brutal) so I am being forced to slow down. And here I am.

Going into 2012 I didn't make a grand resolution - if you think I suck at updating a blog imagine my resolution success rate. But I have been thinking its time for some change. Most notably with my weight. I'm not overweight by any means. I'd say I'm the higher end of average (I AM good at rationalizing). But I don't like what I see in the mirror. I have done atleast 15 serious structured diets in my life. The problem is that I get tired or sick or just plain bored and the wheels fall off the train. And don't get me started on exercise.

So while most people want to lose "x" amount of pounds I just want to find a healthier lifestyle that o can get behind and stick with. In my lazy and overextended life. And maybe I can sneak it onto my family also. A little. What kind of wife and mother would I be if I did this alone.

Step one, I have decided, will be the exercise portion. I cannot afford nor do I have the time for the gym. This is me on my own. And being in the upper Midwest...I am stick in the house until at least April (I don't do cold...don't even ask). So what do you suggest? Yoga has been good to me in the past and I am hoping to start back into it.

Any other easy to stick to ideas?
