My bf tried working out  with me today, he is considerably bigger so he only worked out for 40 minutes but got quite a bit more out of the exercises, he worked up a sweat much faster then me and burned 318 calories which was more then I burned, even though I worked out for 25 minutes longer.


His favorite ones were the soccer heading, running, and boxing.
He liked the activities that were actually games better, though we didn't put a straight workout routine together for him this time.


We ended up having a soccer/boxing war sadly he beat me in both, but I came pretty close in the boxing.


Hopefully I will start showing more weight loss soon, though I do feel more defined

Unlocked another challenge today!
The PLANK challenge, HAH I will probly never do that one unless I turn into some crazy amazon body builder, I hate planks and can barely do the 30 second one on my strength/yoga list.


Last night and this morning I wasn't feeling well and it woke me up several times. I also stayed in bed until noon!  But I still got up and ate a healthy breakfast and did my workout, I actually feel a lot better now.


I am pretty impressed with myself that I have been working out an hour every time so far! I thought I would all ready be slacking off and just putting in half an hour!


I find this so much better then work out videos because I can personalize it for myself, and see results specific to me!


Tomorrow my boyfriend is going to try it with me! I will let you know how he likes it as well, just in case any male readers are interested.

Introductions to my little project.

Hi, I'm Chelsea.  I am a 21 year old makeup artist from Canada, who has a secret love for video games, and has very little time for (or is it very little drive for?) working out.

My boyfriend recently got me a wii fit plus for Christmas, as just prior to the holiday season I had decided that I was finally serious about losing weight. And had been struggling along with workout videos like Jillian Micheal's 30 day challenge and trying to stay motivated.

Of course as Christmas and new years came about, I stopped my new healthy food diet and began eating copious amounts of chocolate, and working out fell by the wayside. Luckily for me healthy eating isn't the hard part, so I have easily gotten right back on that diet. I love vegetables....

After reading a couple different peoples blogs, and experiences with their wii fit, and how they used it every day and lost weight and felt better, I have decided to do it as well.

I will work out a minimum of 5 days a week, for those 5 days I will work out for an hour.
I will record my findings, my workouts, how I am feeling and reacting to the game, how I feel the next morning, how much my cat weighs even!

I am going to start my challenge at 4 weeks 5 days a week including a healthier diet, and see where that gets me.

Hopefully because its a video game, i will stay motivated and find something that really works for me.
