Just Dance with the Wii



Recommended Posts

So .. I am 3 weeks post op (almost). My 14 yr old borrowed Just Dance 3 from a friend of mine. She talked me into doing some with her. We did 5 dances before I had to stop. About a half hour for me because I took small breaks to breathe between.

I hate exercise.. or thought I did. I had a blast. We danced and giggled. She is going to dance with me every night for exercise. I didnt think I would have that much fun but I did. I know it was working because I was sweating like crazy. Maybe all I needed to do was find something fun. I think I can do this now. We need to find more fun stuff to do.

On a funny little note.. I kicked her butt 4 out of 5 dances! lol. I had to stop after that. Felt like I was getting a little icky. We are going to work our way up though.

I hate exercise too. You are right about finding something fun to do and the Wii is great for that. The Resort Games are great for the whole family to do & they get you moving. My husband, daughter & I often have a Resort challenge night where we play against each other. It's great fun.

Keep dancing!!!!

Love just dance. It is so much fun with the whole family n at parties. We have all four of them. If you like this u would love Zumba like I do. I'm always trying to get peeps to try Zumba. I would do it every day if I could n burns so many calories. We need to find something we enjoy to b successful. Good luck to you!

LOL yes I thought so too! I had so much fun with her though. It is hard to get your teenager to do anything with you anyways so she asked this morning before school if we were going to dance again tonight and I said yes.

We are going to try the zumba once I start feeling like I can breathe a bit better. LOL baby steps!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
