My pants are too tight. In fact, as I type this the top button on my pants is threatening to pop off. I over ate this fall and holiday season. Plain and simple. I ate too much and exercised too little. That’s how weight gain happens. Unfortunately Oprah sugar-coated it yesterday on her first episode of the year, the first of her "Best Life" series of episodes. (Did you watch it?). She insinuated that her own weight gain was due to thyroid problems and possibly due to depression. Oprah may be making excuses for herself but I’m not. I’ll say it again – I ate too much and excerised too little.
But that’s all changing….
Over the past week I’ve ran a total of 5 times, logging in 19.35 km and burning appx. 1179 calories. I’ve also used my Wii Fit twice. Our scale says that over the past week I’ve gained 6lbs, so imagine my surprise today when the results of the Wii Fit body test indicated that I’ve LOST 2lbs. Yay! Anyone want my scale? It seems to be broken.
I’ve also begun to use the Wii Fit more. OY! Boy do I ever hurt afterwards! I needed to take a day off running once this week just because it hurt too much to even breathe. I soooooo hope this new routine of using my Wi Fit and running on my lunches will help me to lose weight and be more healthy.
Wii… make my pants Fit again – PLEASE!
ORN: No run today – just a good 20 min workout on my Wii Fit

I’m proud of you for making a stand for yourself and take actions for your holiday sins. I hope you will continue your workout and don’t let Wii Fit sit there and collect dust like most people I know have done.
It will, it will! Keep it up!
I think the Wii Fit is a lot more fun than running, lol. But it would be great if you could do both.

My boys wanted a Wii Fit for Christmas, but Santa musta ran out before he got here. They just love to play the different things on it. They play on one at their aunt’s house.
Have you looked at the My Fitness Trainer ‘game’ for Wii? I’m thinking of picking that one up – I like the Fit, but I just can’t work up a really good sweat with it unless I stick to the hula hooping and boxing, which gets dull after a while. I too am trying to shed the December excess – along with the baby weight…
