I Work Out!

It's safe to say that everyone likes to say they love working out, but that for most people is the biggest lie they've told. But for me, I love it! One reason I think I love it is because I don't just run on a treadmill and do sit ups on a gym floor. I like to shake things up. Make them exciting and never consistant.One thing I also do is I use a food and exercise tracking app called "Lose It".

The logo looks like this, and the app is such a life saver!


In this app, I track all of my food, which sometimes can be a little scary, and all of my exercise. It tells you how many calories your food has, you can type in your recipes and it will tell you the caloric content and how much a suggested serving is. This app literally has it all/ You can track your weight, become friends with other people and have competitions with them, you can set goals to track your progress. There is also more, but I don't want to bore my few readers! :)

Here's what an example of the app looks like, I've had it on an Android and an iPhone. It works great on either, and it looks and works the exact same way.



Another thing I do to keep myself motivated is I do watch NBC'S The Biggest Loser. If you don't watch it, START! It is THE most inspiring, motivating, and informing tv show I have ever watched! It is definitely worth one hour a week!

And on the show, there is a trainer named Jillian Michaels. Maybe you've heard of her. If not, you must live under a rock. ;) 

Anyways! She is the toughest trainer I have ever seen on the show. But she knows how it is to want to lose weight. You may not believe this when you see her picture, but when she was young, she was an overweight child and found boxing and lost the weight. And now she looks great!



So I went out and bought her "30 Day Shred". It's great! And by great, I mean it completely kicks my butt. It's the best at home workout anyone can do. Its short and sweet, yet feels like a long time while you're doing it! I would highly recommend it to anyone who would want to work out at home.



And when "30 Day Shred" was getting old, I bought her "Yoga Inferno". And let me tell you one thing. If you think yoga is easy... You obviously have never tried it. Yoga is not an easy thing to do. Especially if Jillian Michaels is your instructor. 

I just finished it before I started writing this, and I'm still feeling it. It's a workout that leaves you feeling great and happy. And yoga always makes me feel good about myself and allows me time to think even though its a hard workout. So I definitely recommend you get this one as well!
