I’m taking the EA Sports Active for the Wii 30 Day Challenge!

This is a compensated review from BlogHer and EA Sports Active for the Wii.

Everyone who reads my blog knows I struggle with my weight and body image so when this opportunity popped up, I jumped at it. Today I’ll be starting the EA Sports Active for the Wii 30 Day Challenge.

It’s basically a personal trainer in a box since it makes customized fitness programs for you. AND even better, I won’t have to go to that hateful thing they call “a gym”. I mean, a video game that will make me skinny if I keep at it? Let’s do it!

Day One

The game is telling me I’m not doing my squats and I’m like my legs and ass are saying DUDE, I disagree, enough with the squats!

Read more about the first day of my challenge.

Week Two

You won’t see me stuffing an actual personal trainer in my suitcase. 1) because I don’t think they’d like it too much and 2) that’s probably illegal.

Read about how I took a video game to Las Vegas.

Week Three

The day before my Vegas vacation (June 4th), I picked up a new pair of jeans for my trip. Today, I can slide them down without even having to unbutton them!

Week Four

Well, I’m just about done with my 30 Day Challenge. I’ve probably done 15000 lunges, runs in places, thrown twice the amount of punches and way too many squats. But you know what?

It was worth it. Even after all the whining I did.

I would love to win this because I need something to mix up my daily workout routine every once in a while! I’d like to have an easy system to follow to work out at home, and I think this sounds like it’d be great fo rthat!

This sounds like a great tool to work out!!! I’m not a huge video game player but I could get the hang of this!!!

You’re such a cutie! Glad you’re blogging for us to read every day! If I won an EA Active I would be able to get in shape and have the ambition to follow all your style rules (read ditch my Crocs) and I swear even if I loose 9 thousand lbs, I won’t wear leggings as pants! =) Keep up the awesome work!
