Working out!

So, I mentioned a while back that Todd and I were going to get a YMCA membership and we did that. So here's an update to my progress. After watching the Biggest Loser season 7 religiously (on Hulu) I gained a new respect for my body that I didn't have before. It's hard to explain, but watching those contestants go through what they've gone through has been an amazing experience. Some of them I feel like I know personally and am friends with them and when they feel pain I feel it too.

So, after setting some goals for myself and some expectations Todd and I hit the gym. We have already been eating pretty well. We have veggies and/or fruit at every meal. We have a lot of "organic" things (including our meat), we are back to goat's milk only, we have cut down significantly our sugar intake. All of this has been going on for a while, it was just time to add the workout part.
Yesterday we hit the YMCA for the first time together and I spent my time doing circuit training and running on the treadmill. Bob (the BL trainer) says that if you aren't use to running you should run for a minute and then walk for 2. So that's what I did and I did so well.
Today I took a spin class that totally kicked my butt in a good way (and I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow!). It was different than anything I've ever done before and I'm excited to do it every Monday and Wednesday. YMCA has a child watch center so it's perfect for Emma to go while we are working out!
I worked outside in my garden for about 4 hours this afternoon and got sunburned on my cheeks, but I got my peppers planted, made room for my zucchini and have the beds for my eggplant, cukes, beans, tomato's, etc all lined out and ready to work on tomorrow!
Also...I got a gallon out of Nutmeg today!
