    Whos doing Wii Fit?

    I finally got a Wii Fit Last Friday, and I tell you it does give you a workout.

    Going to see if I can knock off the extra weight I need to loose.


    Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

    We have wanted one. I may have to get one to ramp up for P90x which may never happen.... I used to love the Boxing game at the video arcades. That was a workout. Good luck.

      I got one about 3 weeks ago and I've already lost over 3 pounds, and that's about the only change I've made. It's fun, and the whole family has got into it. Great motivator to get off your duff, especially when it's nasty outside and you don't want to go out and freeze to get some exercise.

        1lb per week is a good pace for losing weight.

          Agreed, if it keeps my attention I'm more inclined to do it. The running program where you chase the cat keeps me motivated to do it. Unlike a treadmill where you stare at a wall. My ultimate goad is to drop 15 to 20 pounds and get into shape.

              I still haven't gotten this. I think it's something I could really get into, but it was so hard to find for a while that once it finally became available I had lost interest.

                  It's pretty harsh on you. It said I was obese. I probably weigh 20-25 pounds over what I should. I don't consider that obese. But I just rolled with it. I'm almost down to "overweight". I'll feel better once I am.

                  The worst part is how it makes your Mii character fat. You plump up like a Ballpark Frank!!!

                    I don't do the Wii Fit workouts...I do the strength training twice a week and yoga once...

                    I do however do the EA Active workouts every other day...

                      I'm always leary of them suggested weights. According to the standard height/weight chart I'm almost 100lbs overweight.

                          I've been doing EA Sports workouts since December. Winter is long for me, can't cycle, weights are in the garage (forget it) and treadmill is dullsville.

                          The "more workouts" program has made this winter bearable and I've really kept the weight off not to mention my back is doing great. I do it five times a week, hitting the heavy bag on weekends.

                          Absolutely love the program, little tired of lunges but what the hell....

                          When I was in the best shape of my life in my 20s, I was apparantly 30lbs overweight. I don't know where this was.

                            PS made my character fat on purpose, kind of an incentive.
