Another tick on the to-do list!

So for my trip trip to Bermuda, I have a few goals I would like to reach.  Of course I have to save up the money.  For that, I've been working tons of hours at another store and totally running my butt off.  But it's paying off so far, literally.  Heck, my last paycheck for two weeks was what I would normally make in three weeks!

But the other thing I'm working on is getting in shape, watching what I eat, and overall losing weight.  I have taken a few steps toward that one already.  I signed up for SparkPeople, which is an online community for losing weight.  The website helps you track what you eat in a day, how much exercise you get in a day and a whole bunch of other helpful tools.  I've actually been keeping up with it pretty well.  I've found that I eat too many carbs, but I'm totally not surprised by that.  I love carbs.

Also, today Dale and I went and got me an AbCircle Pro.  It's one of those things you see on TV, but it's pretty neat so far.  As long as you keep yourself away from just using momentum, it seems like it will be a useful tool.  And it's so much quieter than I thought it would be!  I can totally use this while watching TV.  And right now it's in the middle of my living room, so it's easily accessible.

Looks like this cruise is an awesome motivator for me so far!
