You always feel better after a workout!

I have been watching my calories or points for about 6 weeks now.  I have lost about 12 pounds.  Something "clicked" with me last week. I decided to finally turn on the Wii and at least just do Wii step for a while.  I knew it wasn't going to be a very intense workout since it's just Wii Fit, but I knew I needed to do something!  I had a 1.4 pound loss the week before but that just didn't seem good enough for me! So I got the step out and started going! I love Wii Step because it is fun for me and I like competing against the scores!  My husband currently has the highest score on the basic step from when he tried it a couple years ago.  I wanted to beat that!  I kept working but still didn't break his score.  About that time, my daughter woke up from her nap.  I had this idea to just put in my Turbo Jam workout that I have had for 5 years now.  I bought it back even before I was married and actually when I was about 50 lbs less than I am now...Turbo Jam Infomercial  


I decided to just "watch" the video.  I turned it on and sat down.  A few minutes into it I realized I could do this.  So I got up and tried it.  I did about 15 minutes of the 45 minute Cardio Party.  The next day I did the 20 minute workout and the day after that I did the Turbo Sculpt 43 minute workout!  I admit it's hard to get me motivated to workout.  I don't like to at all.  Cardio was not my favorite thing to do, in my slimmer days I was strength training all the way! But these days, especially with how out of shape I am I have decided I need to do Cardio and actually like it once I get going. 

It's true....Nothing feels as good as when you finish a good workout! You truly feel so much better after a workout!!!
