It’s true! Today is the final weigh-in for our Shrink-a-Versary Extravaganza Challenge. First thing I want you to do is reach around and give yourself a pat on the back for sticking with the challenge through Thanksgiving and the beginning of the holiday season. WOW!
It’s been 7 weeks, and hopefully you’ve had some great losses! [...]

Hey Sisters (and Brothers)!
It’s Melissa (TheDailyMel) sneaking in with a guest post today.  As you may remember, I was one of the lucky winners of the new EAS Active More Workouts fitness game for the Wii recently during the big Shrink-a-Versary Giveaway extravaganza.  Since I’ve had it for a few weeks now, Lisa asked if I would [...]

More Workouts is the newest fitness game from EA SPORTS Active. Like Personal Trainer, More Workouts guides you through pre-set workouts, just like a personal trainer would in the gym. The beauty is you don’t have to pay personal trainer prices and you can get an amazing workout without ever taking off your pajamas or [...]

You guys thought we forgot about weigh-in today, huh?
Of course we didn’t forget.  We just wanted to prolong it as long as possible.
So yeah, go ahead and do that favorite Wednesday morning (or afternoon or evening) thing that you like to do called WEIGH-IN.  The only time this is my favorite Wednesday thing to do [...]

So  many of you know I was chosen to be an Active for Life Challenger by EA SPORTS Active. If you didn’t know,  you can check out my post about it here. So about a week after I was selected, my contact at EA SPORTS, KP (@Active_Girl), emailed and asked if I could get away [...]

So how goes the EA Sports Active 5K training? Are you training? You are training, right? Because the run is in 10 days. Of course you’re training, and you’re totally ready to go!!
Are you sitting there staring at your screen in disbelief, having not a clue as to what I’m speaking of? Well, go read [...]

I am NOT a runner.
I don’t have the right shoes.  I have too much weight hanging around to be pounding my joints.  Running makes me huff and puff.  Let’s not forget HOW MUCH IT HURTS ME TO RUN.
So yeah, I am NOT a runner.
This is so funny to me now because back in the day, [...]

It’s been a while since we’ve had an EA Sports Active 30 Day Challenge check-in.
Those of you who said you would be participating in the 30 Day Challenge, tell me…..are you STILL doing it?
