The Wii Fit is great for those of you that don't like going to the gym. The boxing is a great workout and you feel it the next day. I highly recommend getting one, just think however much money you would spend on a trainer for a year and might not use you can spend on the Wii. I do recommend that you do it with a partner, it makes it more fun and competitive and keeps you motivated.

I got a Wii Fit today (in fact, I just got home with it). I can't wait to try it out. The guy at the store was trying to talk me into buying the Wii Fit ski game also, but I passed. Has anyone tried it?

I love my wii fit!

I like that it tracks your weight and bmi and the time you spend on it. I like seeing my mii compared to other mii's, helps me to realize what size i seriously am. (my son's friend's girlfriend set up a mii, I always thought i was larger than she is, but when i saw her mii, i was smaller.)

The two weeks prior to getting the wii, i was working out in the mornings to exercise videos. But I am sweating way more with the wii than i did with the videos.

My favorite is the stepping. I hope they make a full game involving the steps.

Where are you all finding the wii fit? They're always out of stock at Target and Wal-Mart. Where do you recommend I try?

I actually just kept randomly calling places to see if they had them in-stock. I finally called Game Crazy yesterday and they had 2 in stock and since my husband shops there all the time, they were nice enough to hold one for me until I got there.

I got mine at Game Stop. They are really hard to find. You just have to keep callling places. I caught mine in the morning. A shipment of 4 had just arrived. They definately don't sit on the shelf. Good luck to you.

Woo-hoo! I just scored one. I can't wait for it to get here. :biggrin:

I signed up for instant messaging on Amazon.com. You sign up, then when you get the message you reply with "buyfit". It took me about 6 tries, but I finally replied fast enough and got one.

It's even free shipping. And I don't have to buy one of those package deals with $60 worth of stuff that I don't want.

WTG, Fairysaddle! I just did an hour on mine and it kicked my butt. I need to get a silicone cover for it. It's not going to stay pristinely white for long if I don't. I was considering buying the accessory pack and my husband said, "just buy the cover and use a towel". He's right.

I just went online to Gamestop and ordered it for my daughter who is going to be 12 next week, but you can be sure I will be using it, too. When I went online, I was put on a waiting list, but it came right away. Of course, I had to pay S&H, but I don't care. I tried to get the whole thing for her last year and missed out.

I have borrowed the Wii fit from my friend, and I love it! I love the new games that unlock as you work out more, and how ir does the progress on your weight loss and your BMI.

I suggest it to everyone who HATES going to the gym.

Whats the Ski Fit?

I just got my wii fit, however after a long haul of looking for them, the gentleman told me at Best Buy you have ask when they get their orders, because they usually get two or three a week. That is all they get, but if you get there on shipment days you have a better chance. They are not advertised when they come in. They go so fast they do not need to advertise. I have just started using mine, however I have enjoyed it. I still try to go to the gym 4 days a week and walk a 1/2 after dinner each night, but the wii does let you work up a sweat. Anything off the couch is better than just sitting! Enjoy and have fun!

OK..I've got to ask this. What exactly am I looking for? I've looked for Nintendo WII online but I see these bundles that have sports or games that I don't think I want. Can't I just buy a naked WII & add a WII fit bundle to it?

Thanks

Elizabeth

Yes, you can. A Wii comes with a sports game and controllers ($249). Then, you can purchase the Wii Fit for around $89.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
