Exercise: Incoming!

Apr 05, 2010

Okay, I finally lost enough pre-surgery weight to be able to use the Wii Fit my mom bought me for Hannukah last December.  I also am finally over my cough, not perfectly, but enough to try to exercise.  So last night I tried the Wii Fit Plus for the first time.  OMG Yoga is hard!  It has Yoga, Strength Training, Aerobics and many games to play to practice balance and to exercise.  Some of them got my heart pumping more than others, but it counts the minutes you spend actually working out and I made my 30 minutes.  I needed some rest in between because I am sooooo out of shape, but it's pretty fun... well at least for exercise.  It will do for now, and later maybe I'll add some harder things within it to a regular walking.  Since I'm getting married in August I really want to drop enough weight to fit into at least a plus size dress that isn't special order or something, just tailored to fit!  Have to keep thinking about that motivation and the fact I need to be healthy so we can have kids in a few years.  

Anyway, being able to use the Wii was my first achieved goal, which I did not do on my own before the surgery was scheduled, but I did after.  So... Yay me!    Wow, there are a lot of smileys to choose from!  

Countdown:  Surgery the day after tomorrow.  Gotta keep trying to calm myself down from panicking.  Calm blue ocean, calm blue ocean...
