Fitness Friday: Lovin’ Shopping Again

I am so happy to have the support of the Wii Mommies Forum and #wiimoms and #bigrace friends .. why? Well because of all of you I am Lovin’ Shopping Again!! I can honestly say I have not once enjoyed shopping for clothes since the birth of my first born nearly 7 years ago, why? Well because I took the “eat for two” saying literally – and gained near 100 lbs! OUCH! So after my first came out at 8lbs 13oz I must say I was rather disappointed, why didn’t my weight go away?! I struggled for many years trying to find a system that worked for me. Yeah, I could have gone out and bought all those fast working diet pills, not that I really think they work, but …

Fitness Friday: My Pants Fit Again!!

Ok so it’s the same pants I could fit into about three weeks ago, but I can fit into them again! For some reason, probably the fact that I attempted to quit smoking {well I still am not smoking, but fell off the band wagon a couple times this passed week}, I gained 14lbs. Yay – why did I quit? Oh yeah to be healthier, happier and FATTER. The good news is my EA Sports Active and my Wii Fit are here to save the day! Not only can I wear my jeans again, but I am ready to go shopping, which honestly is something I could have cared less to do because why would I want to look at “this body” in that BIG store mirror looking at a …

Fitness Friday: Feel the #EASactive Burn Baby

Gosh I am so exciting to have the EA Sports Active. My husband could not do this 30 day challenge with me for strained muscle or something in his leg, but I am plugging away on my own with the support of the Wii Mommies, my Twitter friends and my bloggy friends! Thank you for all the support! This week I worked out June 2 and June 3 but something came up last night and I didn’t get to the #EASactive workout. I know, I know, bad me, the #wiimoms need to give me a phone call every morning or something 😉 j/k I did burn around 190 calories this week and am did some outside exercise daily as well. For some reason I have gained 14lbs {prior to starting …

Fitness Friday: No Wii This Week

I found myself and my family so crazy busy this week that I didn’t get into the Wii Fit at all. GUILTY! I did, however, get working out. I have been using the Flexxation Exxtasy Thru Exercise DVD and must admit it’s been a quick way for me to get a workout. My personal weight loss goal is -40-50lbs. I must not be shy so here are my current stats: 180lbs, 5’6″, and I fear that 10lbs are hanging in my chest area {but that’s another story we won’t get into}. I was always 120lbs in high school, then all of a sudden I gained nearly 100lbs with my first born {someone should have told me we don’t eat for two when we are pregnant}, I lost most of it …
