DDR

Time: 30min

Today I turned on my Wii and got a weight that just made me wanna throw it (its the Wii's fault that I gained right?) so I just turned it off. To make up for it, I did thirty minutes of DDR instead.

The DDR made me sweat WAY more than the Wii did so its not a bad thing I switched for the day-now I just need to do both in the same day.

Feeling Better

Time: 30min
Weight: 143.1 lbs
Wii Fit Age: 25

The Wii tells me today that Im back to the weight I have been for the last few days. Woohoo! Now I just have to stick to the diet I started yesterday (back to being strict) and get some more weight off. I cant wait to be under the <140!

Wii Mii!

Time: 41min
Weight: 143.1 lbs
Wii Fit Age: 26

Today working out was funny/frustrating! I bought a real hula hoop to use with my Wii and I CANT seem to use it! LOL I dont know if its cause its a large hoop or if its cause Im a dork...but either way its a problem. Im going to keep practicing, some even when Im not working out so that I can use the hoop better.

Wii Fit-er

Time: 41min
Weight: 143.7lbs
Wii Fit Age: 27

Another day, another exercise session. Im still avoiding chocolate. For days Ive been saying Im going to reward myself with it but Ive been doing it with other things like pizza & ranch on my chicken. Ive decided to hold off the chocolate until I hit 135lbs which will be 10lbs from my goal! It seems amazing to think that Im getting close (well closer right?).

Wii To the New Me

Time: 45min
Weight: 143.3lbs
Wii Fit: 20

Yay! My weight is back on the downward track. This is the lowest weight I have been able to record so far! Yesterday I planned on having chocolate because its been over 2 weeks since I have. BUT I didnt! Instead I had a piece of pizza, but only ONE-even though I was still hungry I told Brandon that I didnt want to blow my diet on pizza that wasnt even good, lol.

Wii Fit (Back on Track)

Body Test #1
Weight 145.4lbs
Wii Fit Age: 31

Body Test #2
Weight 144.6lbs
Wii Fit Age: 20

Time: 41min

This morning I woke up without any ankle pain and determined to work out. I did the body test like I always do, before I work out. I hated the results so I decided to do it again after doing my hula hooping and step. The second test was much better, according to it Ive only put on 0.6lbs in the last few days, rather than 1.4lbs! Im looking forward to working out this week. I cant wait until I get under the 140lb mark! Some people might think the Wii Fit doesnt work, but it sure does for me!

Food: I also need to get back on the food train again. Ive continued to avoid chocolate but Ive had fast food at least once a day for 3 or 4 days, which I hadnt had at all since Ive been working out (that I can think of). Im sure thats not helping my weight gain at all. So back to chicken/fish/salad for me!

Excuses

Time: Just weight today
Weight: 145.3lbs (up 1.3 how depressing!)
Wii Fit Age: 20

The last two days I have been running around and looking after Kayla due to Josie Lynn's birth so I havent worked out thought I have thought about it everyday and wished I had a better schedule look out so I could have taken advantage of the time I had. This morning I was looking forward to getting back on my Wii and then WHAM! I fell! I twisted my ankle pretty good and though its not too bad I dont want to push it by working out today..so tomorrow for sure is the day!! I will be back on track!

Wii Fit (Day 2 in a Row)

Time: 30min
Weight: 144lbs
Wii Fit Age: 20

Another day of 30min of step. It seems to work pretty well to do the free step while I watch whatever show.

Day 9 of no chocolate! YAY!

Today Im hoping to have RR for lunch...my favorite! I doubt Im going to have salad...lol but I have salad here that I can have for dinner :)

Wii Fit

Time: 30min
Weight: 144.6lbs (woo hoo under 145!!)
Wii Fit Age: 20

Today I did 30min of step while watching TV. Felt good. Im still doing well with the diet, and have yet to have any chocolate. Im beginning to think about saying NO chocolate until I reach a goal weight, Im not sure what that goal is yet, either something in the 130s or 130 itself if I decide to do it. Im taking it one day at a time right now.

Oh-I only took off one day from my Wii and I went right back to it. YAY!

Wii Fit (Day 7 in a Row)

Time: 31min
Weight:145lbs
Wii Fit Age: 25

I woke up so tight this morning that Im not surprised my "age" wasnt as good as its been lately. I completely focused on cardio aka aerobics today, 20min of advanced step and 11min of hula hooping. I will also be chasing Kayla (what a joke!) today so that will help keep me moving at least some what all day.

Wii Fit (Day 6 in a Row)

Time: 19min
Weight: 145lbs
Wii Fit Age: 20

I didnt really have a work out plan for today. Sundays are homework day for me so I try not to schedule anything else (like working out takes so much time, lol). But as I was LAYING on the couch thinking how cold I was, and not doing homework anyway. I decided I should do a short work out to get the blood flowing, to warm up and engage my brain for the coming homework.

I tried some of the 'challenges' today. And those didnt go as well as I expected. Other than the JackKnife the board didnt seem to pick up my work out correctly. If that happens again Im going to try changing the batteries in the board. It worked fine the rest of the time so I think it was something I was doing wrong.

Here is what my graph looks like right now. I know it doesnt look like much BUT Im working my way further and further into the "normal" range. I was on the edge, in and out, for a while there and it feels great to see it continue to go down down down! I just gotta stick to it!















Today is day 5 of no chocolate and eating as healthy as possible-its working!!

Wii Fit (Day 5 in a Row)

Time: 35min
Weight 146lbs (well 145.5)
Wii Fit Age: 21

Today I didnt get up and go straight to the Wii like I have been for the last few days. I really had to decide if I wanted to work out or not since I had two ideas in mind-one to work out 5 days in a row, and 2 to take off weekends.

My computer (it was my fault I found out later) took a dump this afternoon and I had no internet cause my brother was working on it. So this afternoon I decided to work out to pass the time...plus I was bored and felt like napping so I decided this would be better.

Onward and downward (with the weight!)...

Wii Fit (Day 4 in a Row)

Time: 32min
Weight: 146lbs (actually a hair under for the first time!)
Wii Fit Age: 26

Today it was easier to get started on the Wii Fit-I didnt even bother trying to figure out a reason to put it off until later in the day like I usually do, I just got busy. My abs are sore too (not horribly, but I can feel them). This morning I even ate my yogurt before I worked out :).

The start of day 3 with no chocolate...

Wii Fit (Day 3 in a Row)

Time: 30min
Weight: 146lbs
Wii Fit Age: 26

I headed straight to the Wii this morning! Not that I really was dying to work out but I know I need to just stick with a routine. Now Im on to having a banana/yogurt for breakfast.

The start of day 2 with no chocolate....

February 4, 2009

Wii Fit (Day 2 in a Row)

Time: 30min
Weight: 146lbs
Wii Fit Age: 30 (silly! yesterday was 20!)

I worked out two days in a row go me! I figured out a new way to challenge myself to make it interesting again. Im focusing on yoga. I complete a row at a time of yoga work outs, along with the suggested strength training exercise. It takes about 20minutes, then I move along to aerobics/balance exercises to complete a 25-30min work out. Only one more row of yoga to go-and then I will do the same thing-with strength training.

Today I also plan to grocery shop-fruit fruit fruit!

*On a side note-I realized Ive lost about 8lbs since December, I dont even remember being that heavy but according to my Wii graph I was. Which kinda makes since cause my clothes feel like I have lost weight-it just hasnt been that apparent on the Wii-probably cause I have been pretty steady for the last few weeks.* On to the next 8lbs!*

Wii Fit

Time: 25min
Weight: 147lbs
Wii Fit Age: 20

Its been almost 2 weeks since I used my Wii, my weight didnt move, but my age went down :). As I sit here I renew my commitment to work out more. I realized that Ive been restless, not sleeping well, and waking up stiff and sore. That can easily be corrected through diet and exercise.

Im eating yogurt!

Wii Fit Day 15

Time: 33min
Weight: 147lbs
Wii Fit Age: 25

Its been 5 days since I worked out-not good. My weight went down '0.2lbs'. And according to the Wii if I keep at this rate its going to be hard to meet my weight loss goal. Guess that means I gotta work out more regularly for sure.

Something New

Over the weekend I bought Jillian Michaels Fitness 2009 for Wii. After I got it home I was trying to find out something about it so I was Googling it. Of course once I did I found all sort of bad reviews about it! I decided to go ahead and try it out anyway.

Guess what-the reviews are right! Its impossible to make the avatar follow what your doing and its super super boring! I much prefer the Wii Fit.

Im going to try to take it back to Toys R Us, I figure I can claim its defective since it doesnt work right. From there I might try out another exercise game or not. I haven't really decided yet.

I need to get back to working out-and paying attention to what Im eating. Hotwings and Pepsi are NOT good!

Wii Fit Day 10

Time: 25minutes
Weight: 147lbs
Wii Fit Age: 21

Im trying to work out every other day...and still working on moderation in the eating habits. Even though I was back up a pound today Im not worried about it since that fluctuates as much as 2lbs a day anyway (according to Wii)

Wii Fit Day 8

Time: 30min (mostly yoga/strength-my abs are sore...yay)
Wii Fit Age: 22 (!)
Weight: 146

Today I ate pretty healthy...even had a "green" smoothie my mom made with fruits and veggies... pretty yummy surprisingly. The nice part was a small glass was filling for a long time. My mom of course is trying to get me to do them too...its great for getting in your servings of fruits/veggies but I dont know if I want to do it or not, cause I hate it when I get that kinda stuff started but then quit. So I dont want to do it at all if Im not going to be committed.
