Thank you to Ubisoft for providing me with a copy of Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012 and sponsoring this fitness diary series. Please click here to learn more about Ubisoft. I was selected for this sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective. All opinions are my own.

I didn’ t workout Christmas morning, the only day I’ve missed since I started exercising five weeks ago.  I’m really suprised that I’ve been able to be so consistant.  Before this, I don’t think I’ve exercised on a regular basis for nearly twenty years.

There’s quite a variety of activities and workouts in the program.  Even at this point, I think I’ve only gone through 25% of the content and there’s also a lot of variety within the activities.  I’m still not ready for the more strenuous activities.  But knowing the progress I’ve made in the last few weeks, I can see that if I continue to work out every day, it won’t be but a few months before I’m able to do them all, including the push-ups.

Looking over my first diary entry from a month ago, I think that some of my problems have been solved.  The waiting between exercises is much more bearable when your still catching your breath or resting from the last one.  And my stamina has increased to the point that I rarely give up before the end.  I’ve also started wearing my older clothes that were too tight before I started working out, which was one my main reasons for starting this project. I really do think that I have made the first steps toward a long-term change in my life.

This is the last week of my YSFE diary.  Here’s week 1 and last week.  And now how would you like to your own copy? Ubisoft is going to give a copy to one lucky reader!
