Oh the days of layout. This is without doubt the hardest time for me to avoid the diet Coke. Not like I've completely stopped, anyway, but I am down to one can of the caffieinated stuff a day. Just for some perspective, before I got pregnant I drank the equivalent of a twelve-pack a day. A couple or few refills, and the four or five cans after I got home from work. Ouch. If that doesn't age a woman, I don't know what does.
It's going to be hard during crunch time to work out in the evening, too. It takes a serious number of hours over only a few days to get the layout done, and it all has to be in front of my computer. But I have my next workout scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, and then I'll have to decide if Iwant to try for Monday.
I like having karate in the morning. It means that my workout is the first thing I do, then I can take a shower and be pretty the rest of the day with my makeup on. Evenings are hard because that's when the family is all home. But I'm doing it for me and I love it when I come home and my boys ask how my workout was. Someday I hope they go home and their kids ask how their workout was.
Enough chatting--back to the layout.

I love it that my kids are commenting on my workouts too, Christine. It is making them excited to get more healthy and fit as well. Less time in front of the tv, more activity and they're becoming conscious of what they eat as well. Mom needs to set a good example...that's all there is to it.
My kids think it is cool! They have been asking me if I will arm wrestle their dad and beat him. I tols them to give me a few morw weeks with Carl and the answer to that question will be YES!!! lol! GIRL POWER!!! ;)
