Day 3

Woke up to another chilly day today but no snow!!!! Still sooooo mad about that! And of course, still sore and neck is still wrenched from the whole "slipping on ice" thing. But I'm on a mission (for now-I say that because I truly believe I may have a slight case of ADD; but again, I digress) to get this weight off me. I'm a 38 yr old former soldier and mother of 3 1/2 adults! I should not be looking like I ought to be baking cookies and knitting blankets for a living! Though, for the record, I can and do perform both very well, thank you! ☺

Sooooo anyways...as I was saying...I'm finding more and more out about this WiiFit Plus thing and I'm completely in love. I would be remiss if I did not recommend it to EVERY person I know who has chronic back pain, leg pain, hip pain or any other pain but are overweight and want to lose it. It goes at a slow pace and is very mild to your aching body parts.

To that end, I managed to work the free step again for 50 min. I burned 348 calories just steppin...again, while watching Stargate Atlantis. According to the two websites that I previously mentioned, for week 1, my daily caloric intake should be 1408.And my caloric intake for today??? 1555. To include cake. Yep, a sista had some cake!!! LoL

Which, by the way, is another tip. I found that if you bake a cake per the directions on the box, cut it into the number of pieces that the serving size suggests, put it into ziploc bags and refrigerating it makes for a good snack. Course, I had to work out a little harder because I DID eat the cake. But the extra work out MORE than made up for it.

Sooooo, tomorrow is my first OFFICIAL weekly weigh-in. I'm excited to post it. I was 248 when I originally got the WiiFit and 244 when I first officially weighed myself so I'm excited! Hopefully, all this work will begin to pay off soon. Wish me blessings!!!
