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

Here we are starting week three of my 30 Day Challenge. I’m feeling very encouraged because I feel like I’m really starting to see results. 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! Although, when I look at myself in the mirror, I don’t feel like I see any difference but obviously, there is and it’s pretty exciting.

As for the exercises, the squats are still killer. I don’t think I will ever like them and I whine the whole time while doing them. I probably waste more effort whining about them than it takes to actually do them. And the lunges, those make me tell my Wii trainer I better have some awesome legs after doing them so often. I’m really enjoying boxing though. It makes me feel kind of like a bad ass except I won’t be feasting on ears or tattooing my face anytime soon, sorry to say. Don’t test me though, I have a wicked right hook.

I think my favorite part so far is being able to do this from the comfort of my own home. I’m not very comfortable in my own skin and huffing and puffing all red faced at the gym makes me feel singled out even more. So this? I can really appreciate.

My big project now will be working on a play list. I can’t do the music the game gives me anymore. I know it’s a silly complaint but I need some music to keep me going!

What do you listen to when you work out?
