Fitness Friday

Linking up with Mandy from Mommy Musings for
Photobucket
My last post was basally an advertisement for Loseit.com.  I am still using Loseit every day and I am now down 12lbs!  The one thing I hate about Loseit?  How honest it is.

Ya think maybe I drink too much?
In any case, the calorie counting is going well and I have stayed under my calories every week!  Now it's time to start adding some regular exercise to my schedule.  I exercise whenever I feel like it right now.  And I do a lot of house cleaning and I chase a baby around a lot so that helps. 

I had some motivation in the beginning to take Baby Girl with me for walks a few days a week.  It was easy because there is a beautiful park on my way home from work.  Now that it's getting colder outside, it's harder to do that.  I hate exercising at a gym so that's out. 

So, I think I have found a solution.  I get to exercise at home and have tons of fun while doing it.  It may even entertain the little one.  And when she really starts walking, she can even do it with me!


Oh.Yea.
This is going to be awesome.  I have Just Dance 2 at home but that's lame.  This one is going to rock! 

Songs I'm most excited about:
Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen
The Time Warp - Halloween Thrills
So What - Pink
Rock N' Roll - Skrillex
Rock Lobsters - B52's

I think I'm going to start a Just Dance weigh loss revolution.  Hopefully we can pick it up this weekend and I can start the dancing on Monday, when my husband isn't around to watch and make fun of me!  I'll keep you posted!

    Great Job on the Weight loss! I was just thinking about starting back up tracking my fitness/weight loss on the blog. I'm the exact same way where the calorie counting is easier than finding the time/motivation to exercise. Videos just don't work for me because it makes it too easy for me to quit half way through. I'm trying to add in walking the neighborhood since then I won't be able to quit until I make it back to the house. Love the song options on the game though- reminds me I need to update my playlists for my walks.

      Thanks! I am really proud of how much I have changed my eating habits because of tracking calories. But you're right about the videos. It's too easy to quit. That's why I do a lot of house cleaning...burns a ton of calories!

Cheerios Stands

So when I logged onto my computer this morning, the first article that caught my attention was this one ( Cheerios Stands ) about a new commercial Cheerios has out.  They are getting a ton of negative feedback for this commercial and I'm just not understanding why. So basically, people are upset because this is a white mother, a black father and a biracial child.  What's the big deal? I know that it isn't a common thing to see in a TV commercial but what's the big deal?  I really don't think that biracial couples are uncommone these days so I'm not really understanding why they are getting such negative feedback for this commercial.  I give a ton of props to Cheerios/General Mills for not pulling the ad.  They could do that and that would be easy and would end the negativity but they are not going to do that.  Good for you.  There is no reason why this ad should not be aired. By the way, I think the commercial is cute and funny and I proba...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,...
