3. Trying New Food!

I've been procrastinating about trying new foods. Always that fear of not liking it, or the texture is to gooey. I'm a very picky when it comes to vegetables. The "Yuck" word pops into my head when just saying the word vegetable. I do like corn, lettuce, cucumbers, potatoes, & tomatoes, that's about it, and only half on my list is good for me.

So before I start a new food in vegetable, I decided to try a new fruit. I like fruit, and have wanted to try a fresh pineapple. I'm not sure why I never tried it. I mean the more variety we have in our diet, the more tasty a diet can be! So I cut up the pineapple and tried a bite, and it was yummy. I'm so glad I tried it. I always bought the can pineapple's for my boys and the fresh is definitely healthier!

When I go grocery shopping I'm going to buy a new vegetable to try. Not sure which on yet...I'll make that decision when I go down the produce aisle.

2. Drink Water Differently!

I have to say, I didn't come up with this one on my own. I saw this idea from Shelly at Mom Getting Fit. This is truly a great way to get your water in and fun! Check out Shelly's blog for some more ideas. Also, If you have any suggestions leave a comment so we can try it too!

Day 1 - 30 Minutes Of We Wii Time!

Working out on the Wii is something I've been doing for awhile now. But to be honest, I've only been doing 15 minutes of it. Thinking 15 minutes will be fine. But, today, I put the Wii Fit Disc in the Wii and took out the balance board and did my 30 minute Wii Workout. Boy is 30 minutes more sweating and exhausting than 15 minutes. Thinking that 15 minutes was enough, no way. After my 30 minutes I grabbed a bottle of water and downed it. I had sweat poring down my neck and my legs felt like jello. I believe this is what a workout is suppose to feel like.

So, for future reference, it'll be 30 minutes of Wii time for me.
