Hello there! 🙂

Not that long ago, I made a decision that was long waiting and I should have done it way earlier; start exercising!
Most people who know me, would think: “Oh that’s not necessary! You’re fine” but what does that matter, if you do not feel comfortable in your own skin?!… Then it’s time for you to take a step and do something!
The main goal is not to loose weight, but just get a better shape and feel better about myself. We all have our insecurities, and once you are used to be slim, a small tummy can become a big problem.

First, I started using Wii Fit plus which is nice but it did not do much for me. It’s more like a you feel you’re working out, but you’re actually not.
It was time to go for something more “old school”, and I got a yoga mat and a fitness ball, followed by a jumping rope.

After 3 weeks, I feel a lot better and I know I’m on the right direction. Most weeks, I exercise 3 times/week, on my living room after a long day at work. Perfect way to get rid of the tension accumulated throughout the day and without the “mandatory-feeling” of going to a gym. I do it when I can, the way I want.
Perfect!!!

This is just a beginning, but the message here is: if you are unhappy or unsatisfied with your body, take action and DO something! Complaining won’t help you, only your actions will.
Next week, I will share with you some of my work out routines so please, don’t forget to come back. 😉

  1. Maravilha!!! Quero conhecer essas rotinas!
    Por cá, faço 2 exercícios localizados e caminhadas quando posso, 1 ou 2 vezes por semana (normalmente só consigo 1). O resto é a lida da casa 😉
