Exercise Savings Account:
Think of exercise as a savings account
invest daily, no matter how small the amount
make regular deposits, watch your account grow
and one day your body will reap what you sow
The more you exercise the wealthier you'll be
your riches will be measured by your thinner body
if you don't want a poor shaped body in the future
exercise daily and you'll surely get richer.
those people you admire who are thin, toned and fit
became that way because of their daily deposit
so make exercise one of your greatest treasures
and soon YOU will look like a million dollars!|||Hi Kimie! I just bought my Active trainer & plan to start the 30 day challenge tomorrow! Good luck reaching your fitness goals! Maybe we can encourage each other!|||Hiya
Im Abbie im 22 i started off at 230 and now i weigh 223 done that without the wii fit or ea active. My husband brought me the ea active because im unhappy with my weight always have been but even more so now were trying for our first baby.
I started my 30 day challenge last night 5/7/09 and i burned 18 more cal's then they wanted and it was great today ive burned about 15 cals more. I have it set on medium with dance music and i feel great for doing it. It really makes me sweat.
I also use my wii fit as well.
Just wanted to say good luck with the weight loss
xx|||Hi! Welcome to the boards and to the Wii Active game. Wii makes it so much fun for people to get in shape whether you're just getting started and are new to fitness or if you have already been active and just want to mix things up a bit. I love your idea of thinking of fitness as a savings account! That's a great way to look at it. I wish you the best of luck and do continue to post your journey with Wii Active. People here can be very helpful if you have questions. I am starting over pretty much. Took some time off with a slight injury and am ready to go again.|||Hi Kimmie,
My best advice for you is to take it slow. I've spent the last 5 years of my life beating myself up needlessly (did it a lot longer but it's been worse since I was diagnosed with foot problems that made me inactive). I just completed my first 30 day challenge yesterday... and for that part I didn't concentrate on eating and active... I started with getting myself to do the challenge. As time went on I saw myself automatically adding activity and saying "do I really want to eat that when it's going to take so long to burn off".
Now I am far from perfect but 30 days is the longest in 5 years I've ever committed to anything to do for me. Because others made me feel I wasn't worth it. LESSON ONE - YOU ARE WORTH IT... don't let anyone or anything ever convince you otherwise... (and I speak from experience because yesterday halfway through the last workout I was ready to quit but I pushed on)
Focus on one thing first ... no matter how many things you know should be focused on ... and it will take time but it's worth it..
Congratulations on getting here ... and welcome to the journey!
|||Welcome Kimmie
My advise would be to just keep at it. On those days when you can't do a full workout do a half workout. On those days when you can't go hard go easy. But you have to keep at it EVERY DAY. Of course finding the balance is the trick but if you commit you will succeed. After about 3 months of this program (EA Active) check out the beachbody.com programs like power90 or slim in 6. Those DVD programs come with nutrition recommendations to make you makeover complete.
You've already made the first few steps by buying the program and getting to the forums. Now just commit and stay at it.
