Back in the saddle

Hello and happy 2010! (Do you say "two thousand and ten"/"two thousand ten" or "twenty-ten"? I'm thinking twenty-ten is the way to go.)

Anyway. After two lovely weeks of sloth it's back to the usual work routine for me this week. The hardest part has been readjusting my sleep schedule from my ideal stay-up-till-1, sleep-till-9 back to the necessary 11:30 bedtime and 7:00 wake up. I hate waking up early.

I'm not one for new year's resolutions (I usually save that sort of thing for my birthday) but in advance of my rapidly approaching 35th birthday, I have resolved to rededicate myself to the gym in an effort to feel good and be super fit for then instead of feeling old and icky. I've got 11 weeks and it's not like I'm completely out of shape so it's doable. And it's nice to have a goal to focus on instead of working out just enough so I can eat without guilt, which is my usual motivation.

Are you committed to using a gym to get back in shape? Because maybe you could take some cardio/dance/whatever classes at a local rec centre. Could be more fun!

Hannah: Thanks for the suggestion! I'm pretty happy going to the gym, actually. I like to work out during the day (I'm usually too tired after work) so I usually just eat at my desk and take my lunch break to go to the gym mid-afternoon when it's quiet. I will occasionally take a lunchtime cardio class when I'm feeling bored with the machines.
