Today, I napped for 6 hours and ate a graham cracker, mozzarella sandwich, Fritos, vanilla cake, and Kraft macaroni. I stood around in gym class and pretended to participate. Yay for my non-existent health plan :P

Joined the gym! I'm also getting personal training sessions. They're not helping me loose weight, but I think they're helping me build up from strength.

One of my friends has that also... I know how extremely irritating it must be. I would love to do kickboxing classes also, if only to release some of my anger, but I don't think they even have classes where I live.

Drinking tons of water, doing about 15-20 minutes of strength training 6 days a week, and going running for 30-40 minutes everyday, with one longer run on the weekend. (: I definitely need to start looking for cute summer clothes to keep me motivated! ;D

I've started taking Zumba classes. It's the most fun I've ever had working out. Honestly if you hate the gym or going for runs, try Zumba. I actually look forward to every class and trying to find some extra's to fit in on days when my usual isn't scheduled.
I'm also supposed to be taking part in a half marathon in March so I really should get back out there and go running....but Zumba is just so much more fun! Also helps with my coordination. I've got two left feet and to begin with I was tripping over myself during the salsa routines but now my feet actually go where I want them to go :-)

Well, not so much a "fit for summer" plan as I started last year & intend to keep it up for good (I got a bit lazy over winter) but I do an hour of Zumba once a week, then about 30mins a day of yoga/pilates/weights/abs/cardio workout dvds at home on the other 6 days. I know they're cheesy but it's a cheap & reasonably effortless way of toning up as you don't need the added motivation of leaving the house!
I'm also aiming to take up jogging 2-3 times a week but not getting home until after dark is making this a little tricky so at the mo I'm just jogging at the weekends, though I hope it'll brighten up soon. I also follow a reasonably healthy low-fat low-carb vegetarian diet & drink lots of water.
