Natalie here: mother of two, wife of Neil, coming to you not so chubby, but recovering from an iliotibial band and hip injury in March that sat me on my bum for a good six weeks.In six weeks without exercise, that bum went south, y'all, and all my muscles turned to mush. Me. no. likey.
So I'm here to get my mojo back with some extra incentive ($ka-ching$) and great friends.
My favorite ways to exercise are weight lifting, running and step aerobics/functional training, with yoga and pilates thrown in once a week for rest and increased flexibility.
The hardest part of this competition for me will be the meal planning, dinner in particular. While breakfast and lunch aren't too challenging for me, dinnertime is crunch-time at my house. I'm hoping to develop a more organized approach to the evening meal. I also sometimes get so busy in the afternoon that I forget to eat lunch, and then I am too hungry by dinner. I will strive to eat lunch regularly.
For the next ten weeks I will plan most meals and snacks out of the Hungry Girl books.
Some things to know about me...I like to play piano, work in the yard, read, and record things on TiVo but not watch them.
I also love to blog, and you are most welcome to join the insanity at my life as neil's wife.
Oh, I almost forgot. I do not like to lose.
Bring it.
