So I came to the realization the other day that there is no excuse for me to sneak in a twenty to thirty minute workout four days a week. Granted yesterday I had to do it around a dancing toddler who was trying to mimic my exercises, but yes it is doable. A while back I had posted that I bought a Wii program called EA Active. Until recently I have not really bothered with it, or the thought of working out at all really. Well the winter blues have caught up to me, combined with working with skinny ass university students all the time. I have started an option in Active that is called the 30 Day Challenge. I will admit that I have had to restart it twice now because of not being totally into it, but this newest time it seems to have stuck. I really enjoy how it is fun, positive and still a great workout. I have been left exhausted from it a couple times now, pretty impressive for a "game." At the end of each days workout, you take a short survey of your previous days eating and drinking habits. I found this a nice passive way of keeping you thinking about what you are going to eat each day. It specifically asks how much pop and fast food you ate the day before, and for myself I started to feel guilty typing in that I had consumed those things. I'm already starting to feel a bit more energetic only after a couple weeks, now to see if my body shape moves in a better direction.
What does Facebook have to do with this you may ask? I found myself spending a few hours a day on it reading peoples status updates and playing apps. Cutting this life sucking web site out of my daily routine has opened up more time to do better things....like blog?
