Feeling Great!

11 May 2009
I am seriously hooked on Wii Fit. I love the fact that it it good for me and fun. It beats the heck out of exercise videos with perky, perfect women telling me how good I'm doing while I am about to pass out. I have been working out faithfully for two weeks and am already seeing a difference!

I feel better, have more energy, am in a better mood, and have more self confidence! My tummy is no longer sticking out past my boobs! I am so happy! I plan to keep it up because I am a much better mom and wife when I feel this good!

We have all drastically changed our eating habits as well. Dan and I are eating much fewer carbs and sugars and such. I am eating more than I normally did during the day, but it is the right foods rather than the wrong ones. I do not feel all that deprived, although I am sure missing bread. I hope to keep this up so the whole family will be healthier and I will shed some extra pounds. The addition of more fresh vegetables and fruits sure isn't going to hurt any of us.

Are any of y'all trying to get healthier during the summer months? I am hoping this works, because I normally get discouraged with dieting. So far, so good. I'd love to hear what you all are doing to help keep your family in shape!

Our Wii Fit Arrived!

05 February 2009
Well, our Wii Fit arrived today and I could hardly wait to check it out! It was interesting to say the least!

I am short and fat, big surprise. Okay, it didn't say fat but it said "That's obese" in a really happy voice. I also found out my Wii Fit Age is 55. That's a difference of +25 years. Good grief! I was less than thrilled but not overly surprised.

Tristen stepped up next. He came in as "At Risk For Being Overweight", again I was not surprised. I was impressed by his Wii Fit Age of 14, nearly perfect for his age.

Ashley was the only family member that came in at a healthy weight. The bummer for her was her Wii Fit Age of 31, not good for a 9 year old. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that she is not real coordinated.

So, our Wii Fit journey begins. I think it will be fun for the whole family. I am excited to see if it helps me to reach my weight loss goals. I am also hoping it helps keep the kids a bit more active. I will keep y'all updated on how we are doing.


SAVING is good.
