I'm a little discouraged today.  I have gotten every point--even on days when all I wanted to do is lay in bed and drink chicken broth I still got up and worked out and ate vegetables and did all the other things I was supposed to be doing--but I'm not making any tangible progress.  Not only have I not lost weight for the last two weeks (and actually gained a bit last week), but I have a knee that is giving me problems for the first time in my life!  So today I have been perusing through the internet for something different to try and get my enthusiasm back.  What I found instead was The Pentagon Channel on youtube.  They have a series of workout videos designed for the military, but most of the backup exercisers seem to be completely new to the workout being shown.  There's something extraordinarily satisfying about being able to follow a routine that even someone in peak physical condition is having trouble with!  They're arranged in two ten-ish minute segments per video, so they're kinda nice when you've only got a few minutes, and (though I haven't by far even looked at them all) they don't seem to be on the super advanced level that I expected they'd be.  (Try and skip the first 35 seconds because the intro segment is rather annoying.)

This pilates series was really funny to me--something about the way the instructor's feet point when he goes into an "upward facing dog" postion makes me laugh.  Which is probably what I needed more than anything else today.
