Get-Fit-Family

For the past four weeks I have been a part of an exciting campaign on Bookieboo. Bookieboo is a fitness hangout for Moms online created by Leah Segedie. I discovered it a few months ago and I have met some wonderful women who have inspired me to focus on exercise and eating healthy.

Right now they are in week four of a new Mamavation campaign. Two wonderful women, Alyssa Bechtold and Stacie Connerty are the current Mamavation moms. For six weeks they are working directly with fitness and health experts to transform their lives. It has been so exciting to cheer them on in their journey. So far they have lost a combined total of 33 pounds.

They have been such an inspiration to me! I have been working with a trainer for the past few months and that has helped kick me into gear, but we are still suffering in the eating healthy department in our home. I love to cook and bake and I have never worried about the calories.

We are a pretty active family so to be honest I have never worried about how healthy we were eating. I realize now that I have a lot of habits to break to turn the nutrition in our family around.

I will still bake and my kids will still get some treats, but we need to do a better job of eating it in moderation. I am also on a mission to try to bake a little healthier.

I am going to start a category on this blog, “Get Fit Family”. I will have some guest posts and take you along on our journey to focus more on Healthy Choices.

Speaking of Healthy Choices. . .I know that I am already on the right track. My Christmas Wish List has a few of these items on it: A pair of Earth Footwear Shoes, EA Sports Active for my Wii, New Workout clothes, and a few awesome Workout videos I have discovered through Bookieboo.

I can’t wait to share more with you as we take the first step on our Get Fit Family Journey!
