narrowing my search

last week, i asked for suggestions for a fitness goal or program or something to focus my brain on shifting to a more healthful lifestyle. i need a kick-start to get moving in the right direction.

several girlfriends had excellent suggestions:

- 50 bloggers making a difference in fitness, health and happiness
- insanity, by beachbody
- choosing a yoga pose to really get into (touching my toes, headstand, or the like)

i took some time, reviewed the options and i think i'm going to do the T25 workout program also by beachbody. it's a 10 week program that comes with a little calendar which tells me which workouts to do on which days. and you can check things off! as in, i totally did that workout.

some of the other programs require a greater amount of time in the mornings than i can commit. each one of these workouts is 25 minutes. i can manage 25 minutes and still get myself and 2 little ones out the door in the morning.

i looked at the info last night and here's how it works:

day 1: weigh yourself and take your measurements (they say to do this on a saturday)
day 2: psych yourself up (sunday, i guess)
after that: do 1 workout (as specified by the calendar) 5 days in a row and that takes you back to saturday.

i guess it's pretty intense, but why not go for it?
