So, Richard and I did it! We joined up with Gold's Gym. As I was waiting for the boys to get their haircuts last week, I filled out a piece of paper for a drawing for a free one year membership at Gold's. Well the next day, I got a call saying I won. Since I'm not good at being consistent and excercising at home (you know, the whole self-motivational thing. Yeah, just not quite there all the time) we thought this would be a good idea to take on. I do like walking, no problem there. This just works well (I hope) cause there's a playroom for Sara to go in and I can have that time to myself after the boys go to school. And we have a super nice gym right down the street from us! How nice is that!
So I got their class workout schedules and what do you know....I went this morning and did some pilates! Hurray for me! The only problem was I woke up with my sciatic nerve hurting in my backside so I thought working out might loosen it up. Oh that is SO not the case. It felt better for a little while after and now...I hurt! I hope it goes away soon cause I've got my plans going. I want to do water aerobics on Friday and step aerobics on Monday and Richard and I want to go play raquetball which we love to do together.
This sciatic thing better go away, cause I'm pumped and ready to workout! Probably my chiropractor will have to help me with that. This comes on every once in great while, it's not usually an issue. I must have been lifting Sara funny or sitting wierd. Who knows!
I have a goal to stop drinking sodas, eat less sugar and get the rest of my family to do the same. I also want to lose at least 20 pounds and do more hiking and running. I've always wanted that! So here I go! Anyone want to do it with me?

Haha nice job, goodluck with the whole gym thing, you'll love it eventually I'm sure of it, the beginning is always the hardest. I hope your backside feels better soon! And we'll have to get together when we get back, im sure we don't live too far from eachother!
Way to go! I can give you all the emotional support you need! I'm going to start water aerobics at the rec center next month, and I really like the idea of cutting out sugar. Maybe we can help motivate each other with the whole diet thing. What do you think?
Way to go sis! Let me know how it goes!!!
you know you don't need to lose 20 pounds, Kimberley! You look so great! But I do love all of gold's classes... sadly my membership is ending at the end of the month (but it wasn't free and I want to quit paying for a gym that I'm not using... self motivitation and all).
