DDR for the Wii!

Well, I had originally planned to make DDR (Dance, Dance Revolution) for the Wii an incentive prize for when I finally made it down to 110, but we saw it at Target the other day and bought it. But I have been having SO MUCH FUN with it, and that is good because....

I've been exercising!

You can put DDR into workout mode and tell it how many calories you want to burn (after inputting your weight and all that) and then it will give you different songs to "dance" to and calculate your calories based on how much you move your arms and feet! Yippee! I've burned a couple hundred calories playing with Leif already tonight and we're going to play some more once Eliana goes to bed.

I've also agreed to be a friend's running buddy (she doesn't live here, but we'll keep each other accountable for the C25K plan) so I should be getting back into that this week, too.

Recording my food? Haven't in a long time. That's bad. Weight gain? Nope, still at 117. Also bad, but good that I haven't gained any more, just been at a stand still. Still struggling to drink my water, too. Basically, I need to crack down and just not give myself any slack. But I don't want to. I know I need to, though. So that's my current struggle.

So tomorrow is Monday. We have a Mom and Me hike at 10 that should last an hour or so and is 2.5 miles. Then in the afternoon while Eliana is napping I'm going to run on the treadmill. If I'm really good I'll record my food and water, too, but I won't push my luck too far. ;) First I'll just aim to get some good exercise in.
