Time off and New Year's Resolutions

So I started a blog and then took the whole month of December off. Not just off of writing the blog, but off of running. Well, not the entire month, I did run a hand full of times.

Anyways, as it always is with me, I find that in a little over 2 weeks I have gained every pound that I have lost in the last year from running, and my clothes are tight again. I guess December is not a good month to take a break from running, but realistically I could have told you that before taking that time off running.

Of course, I decided to get back on schedule but found my self punching my husband every time the alarm went off this morning so that he would hit the snooze. Time quickly passed and I gave the excuse that it was too dark and too cold outside to go running and skipped.

I'm going to have to find something else to do in the freezing weather, or just grow a pair and go out anyways. I have Wii Fit Plus and Wii Active so cold weather should not stop me from working out, and it hasn't, but running burns a lot of calories and gets me going in the morning.

Well, enough of this depressing crap, I am moving on. This year I will do a better job of journaling my activities and food. I just need a single place to put it in because I tend to use mapmyrun.com for my running and activities, but don't really have a place for my food journal and I don't want to jump around from website to website. If you have any good suggestions I'd love it. Wii has some journal capabilities, but it's not as in depth as I'd like and I'd still have to use mapmyrun.com to get my courses and distances (not to mention it's tracking the wear and tear on my shoes). If only I could figure out and easy way to journal my food and calories on there without having to know all the conversion information in my head.
