YES, I have a confession ---- I didn’t do much exercise this summer and as a result of lack of exercise, I gained almost 7 lbs this summer…. :-(
I keep on wanting to hit the gym, but I am such a lazy bone, I always managed to find excuses to get away from my regular work-out.
Well, actually, I wanted to spend time with kids in the evenings by the pool, watch them swim and play with water.
I knew, when school starts, our evenings will be packed with homework, piano practices and house chores…
Sure enough when school started 2 weeks ago, as we all are getting into the new routine, I told myself that I should start my yoga on Tue and Thursdays.
Well, that didn’t go too well…
After attending teacher/parent school night, I realized that going back to my yoga class is impossible, as every Friday, Darren has spelling tests, this means, every Thursday, we need to help him practice the spelling words…
So there goes my plan of regular exercise…now, I am debating if I should cancel my gym membership or not…..
But not to worry, my co-worker had a great idea that can help the both of us do minimal exercise at work….
Yep, sitting on an exercise ball during work hours…….

At first, I laughed at the idea and thought she was joking till one day she came to work with a blue exercise ball and started sitting on it.
She let me tried and boy… it is not as easy as it looks… its difficult to sit balanced on this exercise ball… so i gave in and got myself an exercise ball for work too.. haha... oh and it's in purple... well, i'd like to buy the traditional blue.. but the purple was on sales.. so what the heck, who cares how girly that is... (afterall, i am kinda girly... hehe)
