Wake up Jonathan!

My quest of "work out with Wii Fit everyday" was haulted by a vacation.

5 days later, when I popped the game back in, Jonathan's cute little character was asleep!

Look how adorable he is!

And notice how my character looks nothing like me.  She's got some great hair though.

Side note:  it's hard to take a photo of a TV screen!

Somebody stop me!

I bought ANOTHER dress!  I need to remind myself that I never wear dresses.

But this one was 75% off at H&M - and it was cute in an odd way ... it looks kind-of 50's.

Plus, it has a layer underneath so you don't have to worry about bra straps showing!  Although it is a little short ... but hopefully Wii Fit will take care of my chubby knees in time for summer.

Wii Fit Report Card

It's been exactly 31 days since I hopped on the Wii Fit for the first time.

Report card:

Starting weight:  119.9

31 days later ... 117.4.

At this pace, I'll might squeak out to be 109 by June (going to a beach wedding, so I'll wearing a bikini - just kidding MIL!).  But in May I'll be on a cruise, so I'll probably gain 10 pounds to push me back to square one.

So if you see me, and I'm eating some junk food, or drinking a soda, slap it out of my hands!

That was a crazy quote from my crazy Spanish teacher in high school.  Looking back, I think he was super gay, but I didn't really know (or care) was gay was when I was in high school.  He loved the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and pink.  He was so much fun.

Anyway, Jonathan has been playing a lot of Wii Indiana Jones.  Occasionally he looks at a cheating website.  I'm fine with that.

But the goofy thing is that there is a Wii Fit section on the cheaters website.  Seriously?  Do you really need to cheat at Wii Fit?!?

It's resolution time!

Ok, it's 2009, so it's resolution time.

I've never really made a hard core resolution, but this time I mean business.  Although I'm not being very creative with my resolution ...

"I'm going to lose 11 lbs using my Wii Fit"

I owe my brother in law big time for buying us a Wii Fit for Christmas.  When the game came out, I thought it looked cool, but I had no intention of every buying one.  "I can get exercise for free," I said to myself.

Oh no - this is so much fun!  And it's a great workout.  I mean, I'm not breaking a sweat or building up muscle mass, but my abs hurt a little bit, and my calfs are tight.  I just love hula hooping and doing the step aerobics!

So 3 days ago (at the in-law's house) I weighed 120.  I know what you might be thinking, "I would kill to weigh as little as 120!"  Well, when you're only 5' tall, 120 is kind-of a lot.  Plus, I have a huge pile of pants and shorts that barely fit me anymore, and I'm tired of buying new clothes.

A couple years ago, when I auditioned for a certain Disney job *wink, wink* I had to get weighed in front of a huge crowd (because there was a weight limit for this job).  It was pretty embarrassing, but I was 109 (ok for the job - thought I didn't get the job for other reasons).

My goal is to get back in to my Tinkerbell weight!  So bare with me as I document my Wii Fit experiment.
