Gyms & Pizza

The work gym has been going great. I've been 3-4 times a week for the last 4 weeks. I can already tell a difference in my legs and a small one in my stomach. The scale is only down about 6 pounds but I think that has something to do with building some muscles in my legs. I started out thinking I was going to start the couch to 5K program over again but I got on the treadmill and ran for 21 minutes straight so no starting over for me. I'm definitely running slow but my first run was at a 4.3 and I'm up to a 4.7 for 26 minutes so I'm making good progress. It's also just wonderful to get out of the office and have an hour to myself.

Pete got a new job on the weekends delivering pizza. I don't think it will be long term but we could use the extra money right now. I'm tired of never having a car so we're going to save up the money to buy a second used car and build up our savings some. We'd like to have another baby eventually but we need some more money in the bank first. I got a raise at work so that should help some too. Now we just have to try not to take advantage of that 50% off discount at the pizza place too often. :)
