Good Morning!

The Family Circle website went crazy, Parents.com ate it up, something weird happened, so the walking calendar/schedule thing is gone. I don't know about anyone else, but summertime kind of killed my motivation somehow anyways. Sadly, summertime is basically over... but on the up side, I seem to have found a little bit of motivation again. This is mostly Harmony's fault for being a month in to her new "learn to be a jogger" awesomeness. Yay!

Anyway so I am following her lead, albeit I'm on day one and she's on month two, in the "Couch to 5K Running Plan." Maybe somehow I will manage to get myself into a consistent exercise routine again. That would be a total miracle.

Also, I have been doing a much better job keeping track of what I shove in my face. The calorie tracker at www.fitday.com is a real lifesaver for me, as most foods -- or something close enough to them -- are already in their searchable database and I don't have to spend all my time copying nutritional information from the backs of everything I eat. It also keeps track of my most recent entries as well as my most recent "custom foods" (the items where I HAVE had to copy the back of the package). It is my friend.

And of course I'm still tracking my steps at www.walkertracker.com. Today was day one, as I mention, of the attempt at an exercise routine... and I have a surprisingly nice headstart, with 4594 steps already on the pedometer at 9:45 a.m. SWEET!

Now, if anyone can show me a free-or-cheap site where I can track all of these things at the same time, you will be my hero.
