My fitness journey continues with Week 2:
Diary:
Week 2, Day 1:
Tried the toning as you can see form the above video, tougher than I thought.
Days 2&3, Away for the Weekend, no Kinect!
But I did watch what I ate as I feel committed.
Day 4:
Had to struggle with a house of complaining family members, only fit in 50 calories, starting to feel I need to recommit!
Day 5:
Trying to hit 100 calories and work up from there, trying all the different offerings on the video, focusing on toning my various body parts, feeling like it will take a lifetime!
Day 6:
Hit 120 calories.
Day 7:
Weighed in and showed a loss of 1 1/2 pounds. I have been on enough diets in my life to understand that slow and steady is the most productive way to go. I used to think you had to take the weight off fast, but that never stays off. I am thrilled with 1 1/2 pounds in 1 week. Again, I am also watching what I eat in addition to working out with this video.
As you can see in the video I did not have weights to use for Week 2: Toning, but for me it is the movements that are important. The lunging all the way to the floor is not happening as you can see!
GIVEAWAY!! Anyone who comments on any of the 5 exercise posts will be entered into a giveaway of the same video game at the end of the 5 weeks!
Go, Mitch, you can do it! Hey 1.5 pounds lost is a start. Looking forward to hearing how the next few weeks go!
Any lost is a great lost!! It can be done, I lost 95lbs with Wii Fit Plus and this actually looks much more involved. You can and are doing it! 🙂
1 1/2 lbs is great! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for posting these updates! I’ve been wondering for awhile if video games could really produce legitimate work-outs! Keep up the great work, ‘dad!
Keep Up the Good work! I would like to try this game. I love hula hooping on the wiifit and it worked for me- but lately ive been slacking
Good job. I’ve been trying to lose weight…nothing yet!
