Skinny Songs

SkinnySongs is not about dieting, and is not “workout music.” Instead, SkinnySongs is the first radio-hit-quality music specifically written to empower and inspire people to reach their weight and fitness goals. While some people listen to it while exercising or walking, others find it helps to listen to SkinnySongs even when driving or cooking —to get through rough days and strengthen their resolve to reach their goals.

When I was asked to review the SkinnySongs CD, I was a bit skeptical. However, I am trying to lose a few extra pounds to get swimsuit ready for an anniversary trip to the Caribbean that my husband and I are taking in May, so I am up to try anything.

My resolve to eat well fluctuates. I have a day or two where fruits and veggies taste really good, and I don’t even miss the ice cream (okay, I don’t miss it too much). It all comes down to motivation. Would I rather eat a lot of high-fat, high-calorie foods, or would I rather feel confident on the beachskinny.jpg?

SkinnySongs really did motivate me. Listening to the CD made me want to go workout (and working out does not come easy to me). The songs are a mix of a modern country, hip hop, and rock. It’s music that will put a smile on your face. You can hear nice long samples of the songs, right on their home page. You can buy a copy there, on amazon, or at itunes.

If you’d like to win one of two copies, leave a comment here. We’ll post the winners on March 14.

How do you get motivated to lose weight or get healthy?

    I get motivated when my life is stable. When I get a stable job and know what to expect in life. Right now I’m unemployed and I might be moving. This makes me very stressed and I eat when I’m stressed. It’s a bad time to start a diet.

    I saw this CD on a television show and heard parts of its a clips. It’s a must have to get those lyrics into our subconscious and working towards that nice trim body.

    I have a hard time getting motivated. Convenience helps. It’s important to my husband that HE looses weight, that makes it easier for me to want to keep motivated and do it with him.

    I get motivated by seeing those people without legs and understand the passion they must have to be able to walk. Since I am fortunate to have legs, I walk and pray that they will experience bountiful joy in life.

    This sounds like a great way to lose weight. Most CDs have a mix of up-beat, and not so up-beat. Good luck to everyone!

    If I keep up my exercise routine for a length of time, which I set in accordance to my reward, then I get whatever it is that I promised myself. It could be a yummy dessert, but more often it is a new top or a piece of jewelry, as long as it is something I want really bad.
