Being More Healthy is Frugal

Let’s face it, the healthier you are, the less money it costs you in the long run. Well, as long as you don’t get all wacked out and buy lots of strange things. . .

In my quest to become more healthy and lose about 15lbs, I volunteered to participate in the EA Sp0rts Active 30 Day Challenge. The EA Active Sport is a program for the Wii-sort of like the Wii Fit, but not 🙂 I was sent a review copy of the game by the company, and will be telling you all about the program and how it works in an official review soon. . . if you are the impatient type you can watch a really good video from the EA Sports Active website.

I really want to stick with this and see some results. I have found over time that by blogging about Frugal Living I really have been forced to keep myself honest-you guys have no idea how often choices I make are based on “but I’d have to blog about it if I bought that”. . . so to keep myself honest on the exercising front I have challenged my real life friend and social media guru Lucretia (aka Geekmommy) to exercise and get more fit with me. Since I know many of you are not interested in going on this journey with me, we created a totally separate blog to track our progress.

She is Losing It is the place where I will be talking about my daily workouts (or not!), as well as other ways that I am striving to improve my health. I started the ball rolling with some extremely unflattering but honest full length photos, as well as my physical fitness history. . . when I say I’m committed, I mean I’m committed.

Feel free to pop on over and check it out.

I’m Jenn –an Upstate NY wife, mom, blogger and veteran. I talk very fast, read constantly, take on too much and make plenty of mistakes. I’m a real person, not perfection.
