Although I have always accepted that I struggle a bit with following through on dieting and exercising on my own, even I couldn't stand myself at the start of this summer.

After spending far too much time not moving while we hibernated last winter and then proceeding to eat huge meals day after day on a cruise this spring, it was time for a change. My clothes didn't fit, my body didn't feel like my own and I was out of breath from doing just about anything (which was mostly just changing positions as I laid on the couch).

Ugh.

Fortunately, just in time to help boost my motivation and inspire me to add healthy food and physical activity to my life, I was introduced to the Balance Bar Summer Shape Up Challenge.

What more could I ask for?

It didn't take long before the kids and I were on our way to Walmart so that I could pick up a few boxes of Balance Bars so that I could get started on my own shaping up for summer.

Ack! So many decisions between the delicious flavor options!

As well as providing the balanced energy that comes from Balance Bar's 40-30-30 nutrition principle (40% of calories come from carbohydrates, 30% from quality protein and 30% from dietary fat), Walmart has plenty of exercise equipment, DVDs, mats, gear and more to help just about anyone get in shape.

The combination of my delicious and nutritious Balance Bars from Walmart, lacing up my tennis shoes for exercise in and out of the house, the great tips from the Shape Up Challenge, and a little determination and willpower have already gotten 10 lbs off of my body, which makes me pretty happy!
