So I just finished playing with Wii Fit for the first time. And it is AWESOME. I had been prewarned that most people, when they first start using this thing, are automatically obese according to the BMI index. And then your Mii plumps up! AACK! BUT on the upside, I haven't gained any weight since I stopped the crazy diet I was on from January till about August. So that's definitely a good thing. I can pick up where I left off.
It also gives you your Wii Fit age according to your weight, height and BMI. Honestly, I was expecting somewhere around 50. Because I rarely move at all unless it is to chase a New Kid down the street. (kidding! Sorta...) But I ended up being 35! YAY! Which is great since I turned 32 today. So not bad.
A few things upon first use - I like the Yoga and Aerobic stuff the best so far. Biggest surprise - I love the running! My balance is definitely questionable. In the yoga it's pretty good. In the balancing - yikes. I cannot dodge flying soccer balls at all. No surprise here - I cannot do a push up if my life depended on it. I also love the skiing though that will take lots of practice.
They have definitely succeeded in creating a game that makes exercising super fun. While this isn't a proper workout it succeeded in delaying my plan of eating my face off and watching TV by a good hour. I mean the last (and only) attempt I have ever made at exercising at home was when I purchased the Marky Mark workout tape in the mid 90s. And I've only watched that tape while eating ice cream and watching Mark Wahlberg flex his muscles.
I love Wii Fit! THANK YOU GASPAR! xoxoxo

I was at Simply Fondue Sunday. How long did it take you to eat your meal? We got the "House Special For Two"... and it took 3 hours. Literally. They're lucky I had just come out of the movies otherwise I would have been gnawing someone's arm off.
Oh. BTW... Happy Birthday!!!!
