Wii Fit U Challenge!

In November I was contacted by Justine from Brand About Town to participate in a Wii Fit U 30 day Challenge. Now some may or may not know this but the Nintendo Wii original Wii Fit is how I started my fitness journey in 2010. I was 260+ lbs and I felt that it was perfect for me and a great way to get started towards a healthier you. It worked for me then so I was happy to accept this challenge. The amazing people at Nintendo then sent me all I needed to get started. Talk about a great Christmas present.

Here's the three things I LOVE so far about Wii Fit U!

• The Camera on the gamepad. It allows you to be able to see yourself as you workout. It's absolutely genius. Let's not talk about my tummy!

• The fit meter! I love it! I just clip it on me and it records my steps like an awesome pedometer! 

• The gamepad. I just love it. I love how I can look at it to do the workouts or at the TV. 

We have "trainers" who came up with custom routines pretty specific to what our fitness goals are. My goals were: Losing 10 – 20 pounds and toning up my back, abs and thighs. Here are my two routines.

Livefit Trainer - Phase 1 - Review.

I made it! Let me pat myself on the back. Me finishing 1/3 of a fitness program.... go me! So let's get down to the nitty gritty.

The What?

Livefit Trainer is a program created by fitness model Jamie Eason and (according to Jamie Eason herself) "is a simple 3-phase program for transforming your body and your life in 12 short weeks. My science-based approach combines exercise, nutrition, and supplementation for results that far exceed what any of those tools could produce on their own. Better yet, you'll leave this program knowing how to pursue the fit lifestyle even without my guidance!"
