During breakfast this morning, Trent had the ads from the paper and was looking at workout equipment. He is wanting his dad to expand their stuff. He was looking at a dip machine but wasn't sure about it. So he and his dad hopped online and did some research. So nice to have a computer handy for things like this! You don't have to leave the house to check things out anymore. Everything is available at your finger tips!

What do you think of when you here the term "push bars"? The first thing that came to my mind was pull up bars like when you work out. I went and looked it up and it has nothing to do with that. It has to do with cars of all things. My oldest keeps talking about all the things he wants to do to his car, maybe I should let him check this site out. But stress that any changes he does will come out of his wallet and not my purse! I have loaned him enough money over the last few month! Its time he starts paying me back!

I have seen some pretty disturbing videos out there on fast food items, that make me never want to eat at any of my favorite places again! Its no wonder everyone is trying to find the best diet pills to help aid them in weight loss. I am going to try and use some sort of aid, along with watching what I eat, some exercise and drinking lots of water! I have all but cut out pop from my diet, there are those times that a Coke is just needed! ya know!? 

I have stocked up on lots of healthy snacks, and have some healthy recipes to try out this coming week!  So here's to good eating!

What game systems do you have? We have had pretty much every one out there… Sega, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Playstations 1 & 2 and now the Wii. Just waiting for the boys to ask for the PS3. That they will be told no. The ones we have now rarely get played, except for the Wii and I am the one who plays with it the most. Only because this is the only system that doesn't bother my vertigo. I need to get back to using the fit, to get back into shape.  As soon as I finish up my time with the computer I am going to turn the game on and either do the Fit or play Animal Crossings.

We signed up for a membership at the YMCA last week. We have been a few times and getting a workout. I have checked out the ellipticals, and while they look like I would get a great workout, I am hesitant on using them. I am afraid that they would bother my knees. Why I don't know? I walk/jog the track, so why should getting on one of these machines be any different? You would thinkt that it would be easier on my knees, as there would be no pounding the pavement like on the track. I guess I should just bite the bullet and give it a try.
