Although I can't blame my not-so-flat abs on Emily, I joined the Self.com 'Reach Your Goal' free online program, which has four customized plans to choose from. The 'Finally Lose The Baby Weight' plan sounded like the best one for me, so I'm looking forward to the "fast, flexible, kidproof sweat sessions."
The other three plans are 'Drop 8 Pounds this Month', 'Tone Without Cardio', and 'Run 3 Miles With Ease'. The program has an online food diary and workout log, which automatically calulates the calories consumed and burned. There's also a buddy list, so if anybody out there signs up, we can "help one another stay motivated by sharing your achievements and swapping inspiring messages."
We'll see how long I stick with this... I'm feeling extra-motivated today after my hour-long workout in our apt. complex fitness room. I like using it since it has good equipment, but since Emily started running around, I can't bring her there. This is our last week of vacation, but once Jason goes back to work I'm going to see if any of the girls I know in our complex want to trade baby-sitting so I can work out there once a week. It's also how I keep up with the latest music videos on VH1 since we don't have cable :) Today I switched between Katy Perry's Hot and Cold and a Frasier rerun (the one where Niles and Daphne get married).
Anyway... has anyone made any New Year's Resolutions (fitness/nutrition oriented or not)?

As soon as I got the okay to return to exercise, I was back at the gym. On the same day I signed up for www.thebiggestloserclub.com website. It has been 1 week today. And I am feeling great. Today is weigh in day! We shall see if it's working!
I am paying 20 bucks a month for the biggest loser club and it sounds like the SELF website is almost identical. I did get 3 free books though. But I think after my fisrt 3 months, I will cancel my membership and head over to the SELF website. I LOVE SELF magazine and website. I used it a lot in 2007 when trying to lose Ben's baby weight.
My goal/new years resolution is to not diet, but change my life. And so far so good. I don't feel like I am on a diet. I am just making healthier choices! :)
That sounds great! They just raised the fee to watch the kids an extra $15 a month for the 3 of them. I'm thinking of cancelling the gym altogether and maybe with options like these... I'll go for it!
I want 8 pounds off in a month!
