Apparently the pomeranians decided that an hour and a half of a nap was more than enough, and decided that now I was to be their personal jungle gym. Yeesh.

Before that, though, I got woken up from my nap by Pounce - while he's a sweet cat, he's not usually terribly cuddly. But not even 20 minutes ago, he decided my hip was a perfect place to cuddle. I was afraid he'd fall off, so I rolled over and he rolled into my lap, and then he snuggled. And I mean snuggled. He pushed up against me, and headbutted into my chin, and purred for all he's worth. That was so damn cute.

Other than that, not much has gone on today. Took a walk and started on my 200 situps journey. I did fifty today.

Yea, situps! Crunches are good too, possibly better if the situps hurt your back or hips. Make sure you don't bounce. Do them in sets if you want to gain endurance. I'm all for resistance exercises--you can do them anywhere and they cost nothing.

I decided to start the 200 Situps program over again - I got halfway through early this year, but got pneumonia and that totally threw off all my exercise routines. The website is here- http://www.twohundredsitups.com/

I've heard of that. There's a blog someone keeps about the 100 pushups that's very inspiring. I'm trying to get there. I've done up to 70 at a time recently, and some days I've managed 200 or more, but I want to be able to do 100 pushups at a time. 200 situps sounds manageable too.

You can do it! It just takes discipline. I tell myself now that every time I complain about my pants not fitting, that I have to do pushups and/or situps. I've been looking and feeling much better too.
