My lovely husband purchased the Wii Fit balance board for me the day it was released. A week and a half later I finally tried it. Wow! It is fun! And, it tells you if you are weak or have bad balance, or just suck!! I only tried a few things so far. The thing that I don't like is each exercise does not last very long, and you have to pick the controller and push (A) to do it again. But it does keep track of how long you actually did the exercises. I hope to get a chance to do it more!
The funniest part is the soccer heading game! It is hard, I missed a lot of balls! Then, you not only have balls coming at you, you have shoes coming at you that you have to dodge. Lets just say if that was real life, being hit in the face with about a dozen shoes, I would be unconscious!
I joined Weight Watchers on June 15, 2007. In April 2008 I became a Lifetime Member. I have maintained my weight and this blog helps me to stay on track and hopefully helps you to find a journey that fits for you!

No Weigh In
Due to traveling I did not weigh in this past Saturday and will not be weighing in next Saturday. However, I have been keeping track of my weight at home. I prefer to hold off on posting my official weight until I weigh in again.
I am doing good, struggling a little lately, feel like I hit a wall. I HAVE to pick up on my exercise. I got the Dance Revolution Hottest Party for our Wii. It comes with the mat on the floor to dance on (yes, like what kids do at arcades!). I am very excited to start using that as a form or exercise! I also need to move my hand weights downstairs and do some weight work during commercials when watching my shows. I figure Mon and Thurs are my two tv nights and if I start doing a little on each of those nights it is better then nothing!

Wii
Yes, Nintendo Wii is now a staple in our house. Why you may ask? Well, I had heard what great exercise it could be, and mentioned that to Jason at one point and he brought it up again, and we bought one. Last night Jason and I golfed. You have to use a real golf swing. We both had sore shoulders the next day. Tonight we boxed (no, not with real gloves, and no, not hitting each other!!). If you get your feet into it too you can really get a good workout in. I had to move the furniture and Jason got mad cause I kept getting to close to the tv, like if I got closer I would hit the other guy better or something!!
It has gotten Jason and I both off the couch in the evenings for awhile and I think will be my main exercise each day (other then walking up and down the stairs 5M times each evening). There is a Dance Revolution game I would like to get, and Nintendo is coming out with the Wii Fit in January 2008. There are also a couple fun kids games we can get for Trinity.
