Do you have Wii Fit? Have you considered getting one? Do you like it? Do you hate it? What games have you played and which ones do you like?

I really like the idea of working out *in home* until I get off some weight, I'm still a little shy...

I got my Wii Fit last week and I really like it. Its cool because it weighs you everytime and tracks your BMI. The games are fun and some are very addictive. I think its a fun idea if you want to do some excercise at home.

I found Wii Fit on ebay and have it set back for after my surgery (Oct. 22nd). I am also debating waiting until Christmas for a "family" gift. I've heard great things about it!

Hope you get your approval soon!

I tried it at a friends house. I would agree that you would need a regular workout at a gym but it was fun and a great way to get your butt off the couch. I really want to get one of my own. Maybe if I am good I will get one for Christmas...

So, I am an infusion nurse and sometimes I spend like 6 hours or more at pts houses...the other day I went to a pts house and shes not much older than me...we played on her wii fit...IT WAS AWESOME.

I am so hooked but now I cant find one...I really dont like buying things off ebay bc I have had too many friends ripped off...anyhow if anyone knows where to get one please let me know...Walmart is out, bestbuy and circuit city are all out. Thanks.

I've been working on getting one. The wii is so hard to come by right now.

I walk, swim, and do my yoga video, right now. I cancelled my gym membership, but have been doing more at home, and this could be a fun way to go.

I WANT.

Ehh. I have a wii fit but as much as I like it, it's a little too slow for me. If you really want a work out, try Dance Dance Revolution: The Hottest Party. I just got it on Tuesday and I had so much fun with it.

Wii Fit Pros:

*scale

*BMI

*measures your progress

*really good balance games

*good light aerobic exercises

*good yoga and strength exercises

Cons:

*not a real workout

*can only do one game at a time

*have to go though too many screens

*they have way too much stuff on posture

Honestly, if I had to do all over again, I wouldn't have bought it. But that's just my opinion.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
