The past few weeks my participation in the Your Shape Challenge has been less than I anticipated. Since I’ve been away, it’s been nearly impossible to do the Your Shape Wii workout consistently. The good news is I have been making up for it by walking….everywhere! My weight has stayed about the same, 141 lbs, with a little fluctuation from week to week.
At first I thought the reason I wasn’t losing was because of my my diet. While I still believe there is room for improvement, I am beginning to think I need to step up my workout intensity. I definitely sweat in the half-hour Your Shape workouts, but I’m wondering if it’s enough? I am thinking I might need to actually get outside and have a good run in addition to doing the Your Shape Wii workouts. I need to shock my body with something.
Last week, Walmart was nice enough to send each of the Your Shape Challengers a $100 gift card to buy some healthy snacks.
I bought grapefruit, bananas, apples, pears, spinach (to make smoothies) and yogurt. I also got some snack food items like Kashi bars, cereal, Klondike 100 calorie bars and some pickles- what a great snack for only 5 calories!
I am hoping these snacks will give me the pick-me-up I need to get back on track and start losing weight for the last 5 weeks of the challenge.
Which leads me to this…What is your favorite healthy snack?

The Your Shape Challenge is sponsored by Collective Bias, Ubisoft and Walmart. I have received incentives from these sponsors to keep me motivated during the challenge. All opinions are my own.

Smoothies always pick me up. A great selection of snacks you have chosen.
