Crystal got an Ab-Lounge for Valentines Day. I came over this morning and worked out with it for a while before we went to the gym. It’s just as nice as I remember it being…. and I don’t have to worry about storage in my crowed apartment!

But it’s been four weeks and we have only touched the weights once. We are both anxious, Crystal is loosing weight for a wedding and I just wanna be slim and tone. Her personal trainer is waiting to hear back from a medical professional before he starts us on weights… and it’s a long wait.

I’m scared to take the next step and examine my diet. I know it’s not the healthiest, but our budget is really tight and we get a big protion of our food from my brother who brings home leftovers from whatever was catered at work that week. It’s usually yummy but not in line with “healthy” eating habits. Any suggestions on eating well on about $5 a week?
