A little late due to my dad being in the hospital but better late than never!

Alright so I’m not going to lie, this 30 Day Challenge is kicking my butt. I’m reaaaally out of shape. But the good thing is as I continue to push along, it is getting easier. I’m not breathing as hard as when I first started and not getting tired as quickly so I’m definitely taking those as a good sign. I’ve yet to really notice any changes in my body but then again, I’m rather heavy. I’m not expecting to physically SEE results right away. I’m going to go more by how I feel and how my clothing fits. Let’s talk about dedication now. Who manages to plan a Las Vegas vacation right at the beginning of her 30 Day Challenge? THIS GIRL. I wasn’t about to lose so I packed up the Wii and brought it with me. I did go light on the exercises though because hello, have you walked the Vegas strip?! I mean really, I was ready to cut my legs off from the knees down because my feet and calves hurt so bad. But I’m glad I brought it because even though I got laughed at for bringing a whole effing video game system, my two roomies were interested! Seriously, though that’s what’s so nice about the Wii, it’s pretty small and portable. 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. There is a couple things I’m not really feeling. One being, I’m still having some nunchuck issues (OMG how many times to you hear people say that?!). Sometimes my exercises aren’t registering when I’m doing them and it’s super frustrating. I’ve learned to really watch the demonstrations before doing it myself. If you’re slightly off with positioning then you have the nunchuck issues. My second issue is really just a personal annoyance. My trainer I made is a bit annoying. Her encouragement makes me want to throw my nunchuck at the tv. And then the “you’re going to have to work harder than that” make me throw witty retorts back like “you’re face is going to have to work harder than that”. What can I say, I’m mature. Stay tuned next week for another update!
