My husband and I have a little bet going. Not a bet "per se" but a little friendly competition.
We had this conversation around Christmastime about which of us is more "in shape" than the other. I pointed out that pre-pregnancy I used to work out very consistently (mind you, that was over a year ago.) He said that though he wasn't as consistent with his exercise, he thought his level of fitness was much greater.
So we decided to have a little fitness contest. Let me tell you how it's been going.
So far Dave has:
- Been waking up at 6:30 nearly every morning to lift weights and work out in our basement.
- Been trying to make a conscious decision to eat healthier foods.
- Made plans to start playing basketball a few mornings a week to get some cardio
- Looked into running a marathon
So far I have:
- Pulled out my collection of workout DVD's to decide which one I'd like to do. I got stuck watching the "Before and After" profiles on the Biggest Loser DVD, but have yet to actually complete one of the workouts.
- Used breastfeeding as an excuse to consume a number of sweets, including half a package of Peanut Butter Oreos (I need the extra calories you know...for Lily :)
- Counted climbing the stairs to and from bed as my cardio
- Did a Google search for "cute exercise gear"
I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say he’s winning…but I have till July! Don’t put your money on him yet :)

I can totally see why you would think "Googling Exercise gear" would burn calories ;)
So what is going to be the test of whose in better shape?
