Mommy Tip: How to Have Fun Losing Weight

In order to lose weight you NEED to do cardio...it's the best way to get your heart rate up, your body moving, and start burning calories. Cardio combined with strength training like weight lifting or what I love...Fitness Babies, is how you'll bring back those muscles and tone your body! L and I do Fitness Babies all the time which is helping me build muscles, but I still have some "baby fat" that I need to burn off. How do I do it???

Dance Dance Revolution Baby! The game is incredibly fun & keeps you moving! I have the Supernova 2 version which even has a workout option, so as you dance it tracks your pace, amount of time dancing, AND CALORIES BURNED! You can get Dance Dance Revolution for most gaming systems and I strongly recommend purchasing at least one additional mat (you can get universal mats to work with wii, PS2, XBox, etc.)! My husband and I have started "dancing" before we go to bed and it's so much fun...it also reminds me how much further I have to go before I'm back in shape! I shopped around and Amazon.com seems to have the best deals. I'll also put the games in my Amazon store in the right hand column if you want to check it out!
