OOPs I did it again

Fell off the wagon of exercise again.  Life is hard enough as it is.  I AM LAZY and work tooo much.  This is how I got fat in the first place.  I find that it helps to make awesome playlists on your MP3 player ahead of time (if you have time to do this).  I am no quitter though just a procrastinator.  Well here I go again see if I can stay with it and get some video and recipes on here soon.   No body is probably reading this anyways lol.   

Wish me luck

I have been super lazy and eating junk like crazy :(  I have lost weight but it is surprising since I seem to be trying to sabotage myself lol.  Being overweight is more than just not exercising.  I realize I have grown used to eating things that have nooo nutritional values at all.  My diet is pretty much whatever is the closest and the fastest due to the large volume of work.  I have got to find a way to make good food choices on the go or I may never get out of this rut.  I have also started to realize that I am very hard on myself.  Each time I workout I feel like I am trying to punish myself for being fat.  How horrible is that.  I have learned alot of things about me lately and hopefully soon I will learn to love myself again.  I don't really feel to good at the moment about me :(  Just gotta keep going.

Day 10

     I definitely lost a few days now and totally forgot the best part the weigh in.....  As of three minutes ago I weigh dun dun dun   159!   That is pretty amazing to me given the fact that I have been eating lots of crap food and have not been doing my plan everyday.  Imagine how much better it will be when I actually stick to a diet lol.  I am in the process of putting up some recipes and photos for this but as we all know I am a bit lazy.  That is kinda why I am here to begin with.  

    On a side note I am happy to say that the new need for fitness is pretty contagious.  My boyfriend who is the direct opposite of me and under weight is playing the SAME game to gain muscle and weight.  Goes to show you how versatile it is.  It is idiot proof to which I love you can pick which parts you want to work on.  SOOOOO handy. k Well I am off to start the day unfortunately  wish me luck..

Slow Down

It has been a few days since I was on here.  I have been having alot of family time and work.  Have not been eating anything good for me lol.  With the holidays here and stuff I feel this may not be my greatest of weight loss times.  I will not be giving up though.  Today is my brother birthday and we had all manner of sugary goods :)  I will regret this later I am sure.

Day 3

     The days are starting to run together on me a little bit.  Between working out 2 or 3 times a day to working my six jobs and maintaining a life it tends to blur.   I am still playing the game and it is still kicking the crap out of me.  REALLY makes you think about how out of shape you can get.  Strangely I find myself working much harder and sweating more than if I go to the gym solo.
     I tried several other games, most of which were nonsense.  I was really excited to play Zumba (until I tried it) but it was a total let down for me.  As a person with fair amount of rhythm and a love for dance I found it hard to keep up with even the beginners thing :( back to my YSFE2012.  It really makes the workout idiot proof and it is like having a trainer with no cost...  I literally played so much and sweat so much today I drank a gallon of water in 1 1/2 hours!!!  Now I love water don't get me wrong but I have never sweat soo hard.  Oh yeh and did I mention that I burned over 200 calories  wooohooo

Played:YSFE2012 
Time: 1 1/2 hours
Calories: 200

On a side note I went to see Merry Madagascar in Nashville today it was pretty neat!
Leave comments if you are out there lol

Day 2

I definitely underestimated how much pain I would be in today lol .....  I had to work today (which involves plenty of squats :(  ..) with my legs feeling like what could only be described as raw hamburger.   I walk as if I am pregnant.  Still managed to get in a few minutes of arms and abs woohoo.

Played: YFE 2012 for the Xbox 360
Time:15 min
Calories: 60
I'm well on my way, whether its success or the ER.
This game has definitely caused a stir in the house.  Now we are fighting to play it and sometimes fighting to not play it.  Hopefully we can keep the peace long enough to reach my goal.  I am extremely sore yet very excited to see first weigh in.  I will be shocked if I lose anything at all lol

FItness Journey Day 1

OK, I don't really know much about blogging so feel free to give pointers anyone that's out there.  A little bit about me. I have always been a pretty active person but just got into a rut.  Work ,life ,and relationships don't leave much time for one's self really.  Oh yeh did I mention that I have six jobs!!!  I am in my late 20s and I have let the fitness level go a little south as of late, so I have decided to make a change.  I thought it would be fun to do a video game fitness plan (Kinect and Wii) and see just how far that can take me to my goal of losing 40 pounds.  Besides, who has the money for a gym or trainer in this economy.  Well anyway here goes. 


BEGINNING WEIGH IN:163!!!
I am sad :( to say that this is the heaviest I have ever been so here is to losing it :)  (raising a glass of water)

Today I played: Yourshape Fitness Evolved 2012 for the kinect on Xbox 360 ( I am not much of a gamer, which is the direct opposite of every guy I know, but this thing is very neat.  Don't tell my boyfriend but I may have gone to the dark side.)
Time:  30 mins.
Calories burned: 208 woohoo!


Sum up the day :)

 Today I learned sooo much about video games that I never knew before.  Such as how much they COST, how you can buy a game for $50! and if you open it then it is worth like $10 lol.  Also I learned alot about myself and how I really need to get off the couch more :(   I hurt in places that were not natural haha.  Hopefully it will be worth it in the end.
