Welcome to the babble!

Warning: I talk a lot! About anything and everything. I don't hold back. So buckle up.

in 2010 I got the gastric sleeve and I couldn't be happier with my decision. My new life has finally begun!

Finally in 2012 I got my life's wish of being pregnant. Now this blog has transitioned from random blabber, to weight loss, to being a new mommy.
It's ever changing and ever evolving, just like me.

Back in the saddle. And a review for JUST DANCE 2

So ever since Christmas Day I've been feeling sort of blah. I guess because all the exciting stuff was over. I was eating crappily and let's face it, I haven't been to the gym in 2 weeks. So this morning I woke up ready to get back to work. I had my protein shake, and then went to the gym. Ugh it felt so good to work out again. I was feeling so blah before. I ended up doing an hour on the elliptical and burning 500 calories. I kept upping the resistance and pushing myself. I usually only do 30 min on there. It felt great. I feel like I got out all the blahness. I also did some weights and was pretty appalled at how hard it was to lift the same amount of weights I used to. Don't like that feeling. Gotta get my muscles back. When I came home I made some pancake bites (a'la shelly over at eggface) and had a nice breakfast.
half are sf chocolate and toasted pecans and the other half are blueberry


And once I digested, since I was still in my gym clothes and shoes and still had energy I put in Just Dance 2 on my Wii. Now I'm new to this whole Wii thing. Someone asked me to review Just Dance 2 so here's my review.

 Its hard! Lol. Its not easy but it is repetitive. So the more you do each song the more you get the steps and the better you get at it. Some songs are harder than others. But its fun! And a TOTAL work out. Seriously man my heart was pounding and I was sweating. Its a great aerobic work out. We all love to dance, and you're just dancing your ass off. You can play on Just Dance mode where its just you trying to follow the choreography and getting points, there's dance crew face off where you can play with up to 8 players (for the serious dancers), dancing duets where you and another person perform a routine, dance party mode where it just plays on a continuous loop, and Just Sweat mode. I haven't used it yet but i think it counts calories burned or something.

Anyway this is a very simple game. You're trying to dance like the person in the game for points. Its fun and a workout and the songs on here are awesome! Thats why I picked this game as opposed to the first one. I thought the songs were better. So thats my review.

After doing like 5 songs I was done. I hopped in the shower and now I'm feeling very accomplished. Gym, plus dancing, plus I took my vitamins and drank 2 of my 4 waters so far. Now I'm all showered and feeling great. I have so much more energy now. The blahness is gone! :)

  2. I always feel way better after I've gone to the gym. Working out isn't fun, but the feeling you get afterwards is the best!
