This Week's Goals: (1) Do "Workout B" at least once. (2) Record my walks with MapMyFitness app and compare stats. (3) Get a new battery for my pedometer.

Analysis: I've gotten off to a decent start with my new fitness plan. Getting out for walks nearly every day hasn't been too difficult, even in a week that was full of kids' activities. I'm going about it the way I hoped I would too -- experimenting with different times of day and locations, sometimes going alone and other times bringing the baby in the stroller and/or some of the other kids with me. Flexibility, creativity, and determination are the keys to finding the time to exercise, because my baby's feeding/sleeping schedule is certainly not conducive to getting much done right now. That's enough analysis for this week, I guess. I don't want to overthink things; I just want to keep it simple so I can stay focused on the basics. :)
