This morning, after working on one of my books, I just got up and turned on my iPod. I have two groups (one is 20 minutes and one is 30) of music that I used to use when I did the step aerobics on the WiiFit board.

Well you know what? I was barefooted wearing nothing but a heavy terry cloth robe.

I danced. I moved. I stayed in motion for thirty solid minutes. At the beginning I did stretches, then I unloaded the dishwasher. Then I boogied and sang my lungs out.

Y'all should be thankful that you do not live with me. I am not American Idol material unless it's the outtake reels. LOL

But I did it. I stayed in motion for thirty solid minutes and broke a sweat.

I've also not had any cafFIEND today. I did have two squares of my dark chocolate though. Grin!

What was wild was when I put in 30 minutes of dancing and it ZEROED out my smoothie. THUD. All that health gone like that.

hee.

I know. It was just the calories, but it made me laugh.

oh, you have a wii fit too!!!!!!!!!

I love it cause

it totals my minutes
it estimates calories burned
it weighs/does BMI every time you get on it
it tracks it all on a nice little chart
Bare FOOT oh yes oh yes
in the jammies yippie
no having to shower to go out in public just so you can exercise and shower again!!!!!!!
you can add and track other exercise you do (like shoveling LOL)
it keeps track of how you do on each exercise so you can see your actual progress and it means that you can not over or under estimate what you have done or not
