    So Saturday I used the Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2010 for WII, I used one of the pre-set workouts. It didn't wear me out so I thought what a waste of money lol. But boy oh boy I felt it yesterday and still today. What an awesome easy start for those like me that haven't been too active in any exercise program. Just wanted to share it really was fun and I feel like its a great jumping off point for me. Have a great day everyone!

  • Ok, I have a challenge or two...

    Challenge 1: Food

    As it is the holiday season right around the corner, I thought we could all help eachother out and try to find one healthy and tasty recipe that could replace a traditional holiday mainstay. Any of the upcoming holidays will work.

    Challenge 2: Exercise

    Sometimes it is difficult to stay motivated and not become bored with the same old exercise routine. Perhaps we could all try a new activity this week and report of how well it went next weekend

    Alright, hope you guys are all feeling motivated, energetic and healthy!

    That's a great idea! I'll look for a recipe when I get home! If you have a gym/dance class that offers it, Zumba is a FANTASTIC exercise class and I'd do it every day if I could!
