Get Fit

I have been going to the gym for a year-and nothing happened, 5 lbs in 8 months. SO I canceled the membership, and took up jogging with the dog, and my oldest girl. 1 month later 5 lbs lighter and major inches lost. I just love it when my clothing starts to fit, excellent motivator for me. I have been thinking about doing a video, but after reading a few post I think I may just bust out the Wii Fit and go for it! I do have to add that I have thyroid problems that we are currently trying to fix, and was told that may be the reason the weight is not coming off. I am hoping to loss a good 20 by summer 2010.

I've been a bit of a procrastonator when it comes to my fitness. We're going away for vacation in a weeks time so I hope to get back into the swing of things on our return. Pull out the Wii EA Sports Active and Fit (wow Jenaferlm, 26lbs in 3 months, impressive)

I have been losing a ton of weight by doing tw things: 5 mile bike rides about every other night and recently added my Wii fit-- i think the wii may kill me but i lost 26 pounds already in about 3 months!

I must say my Wii is collecting dust right now, too busy I guess but I have been going to the gym :). You ladies are might just motivate me to bust it out and play some games instead of watching t.v. at night.

LOL I guess I'm a dork then. I totally swing the tennis rack and toss the bowling ball. I love my Wii. We never seem to sit when we're playing anything, even racing cars :-)

I am a personal trainer myself and I LOVE THE WII! I finally got it for my husband's birthday just two weeks ago. We don't have the WII Fit (because I spend enough of my life doing push ups and yoga poses) but we do have various sports games and I have to say, as a fitness professional and a huge advocate of active family living, I think the WII is a revolution in electronic entertainment. If you are a dork like me and you actually get into the game, moving around, swinging your tennis racket, pitching the ball, you will raise your heart rate and use sport-specific muscles in much the same way you would if you were actually playing, albeit at a lower intensity! A ZILLION times better than just sitting on the couch and a way more fun, interactive way to spend family TV time. AWESOME! And, no, I am not paid to endorse Nintendo... ha ha

Hi ladies, Wow, only 4 members in here. It will grow soon; I am excited to be part of this group. Working out is part of my life and have lost 60 pounds from it. I look forward to many more conversations. Tamara www.lose-weight-naturally-now.com www.holistic-makeover.com www.mytechiefriend.com just some sights for you to check out and get to know me better. Also, please join my blog, I would love to have you!

So I've just started using the EA Sports Active personal trainer for my Wii. I thought by starting this group it would encourage me to keep up my routine. And perhaps I'm not the only one out there struggling to get fit.
