This should be the fun part, but the hardest part is getting motivated! My mother in law got me this really cool game a couple of months ago for the Wii called EA Active Personal Trainer. The first couple of workouts were really difficult, but on day 4 I switched it from the easy setting to medium and was able to keep up! I did a few slight modifications at first, such as taking out the squats until my legs were a little stronger. When I started, my size 18 jeans were too tight. At the end of the first week, I was wearing a pair of size 16 shorts! Amazing results! And it was really fun because there are sports games that my husband and I could play together. I was just amazed at how quickly my body had changed, it was a vast difference in a matter of a week!
After almost 3 weeks doing this workout, I got a breast infection and had to stop because I was in so much pain. I was in bed for nearly a full month taking pain medications and anti-biotics and every pound and inch I lost crept back on. I finally got over the first infection and felt good for a few days and am now suffering another infection, this time it's yeast, which is just as painful (maybe more!) and has me completely unmotivated to put on workout clothes and run and jump and stretch and go anywhere that is not my bed or couch.
For my birthday, my husband got me the EA Active 2 game for the Wii, as well as Zumba! I tried the Zumba once, it's difficult, but fun!
Today will be day 1 of my EA Active workout and Zumba workout. Wish me luck. My big ass is gonna be sore tomorrow!
