Wii Fit



Recommended Posts

I have been using the Wii Fit for a little over a week and have lost almost 4 pounds.

The Wii lets you advance as you can. It has strength training, yoga, aerobatics and balance.

My sister told me today that her local Nursing Home has one in for their residents.

Check it out. :thumbup:

LOVE the WII and the WII fit , The ONLY thing i dont like about the wii fit is it does not have " routines" you can do , y ou have to stop and start the next activity . When i was at game stop w/ my boys the other day i saw a new "game" for it though , this looks like it might be better as far as a flowing routine.

Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009 at Nintendo :: Games

I think im going to get this this week .

I love using the Wii Fit but hate having to stop and go to the next activity...I love the fact it gives you grief if you haven't been on it in a few days. How many days of the week are you exercising and for how long?

Me too.

I find I don't use it because of that. I'd rather go bike at the gym -- we have a free one at work.

I got the Jillian Michaels disk in, I give it a thumbs down. :)

You always have to start off running in place, by then I am so out of breath, { I have COPD, lung problems} its hard to move on to the next one to see how it is.

I had my son to do some of it for me, running is between every advancement.

I am sticking to the Wii Fit, they have 3 different levels you can do and is great for someone like me, out of shape.

I am on my third week on the Wii Fit and have lost an amazing 8 pounds. Love it.. :cursing:

Good morning!

I have a "Wii" question for those who have some of the fitness games. Can you set up a progam on it or is there a way to get a report on how much and how long you use it? The reason that I'm asking is that I homeschool my dd and she is trying to graduate high school a year early which means we are cramming LOTS of stuff in this year. She needs a PE course. My original thought was for her to do 12 weeks with a trainer at the YMCA but she is working 28 hours a week in addition to some college and online classes. Obviously, she is VERY busy but I would love for her to get some time in working out.

Does anyone know? Thanks.

~~anne

P.S. I own Wii Fit and was saving it for Christmas but don't have to.

Yes, the Wii Fit will track time spent (via Fitness Credits) and progress. You do this by setting up a profile for each person using the device.

Your daughter would set up her profile and then use the different 'games' in the Fit. The time spent and progress to goal is tracked by the system memory and can be graphed.

I'm doing the wii fit daily. I ordered and have been waiting for my jillian game... I even pre ordered it. I think it's going back. UNOpened. And when I fill out the form why, I'm gonna tell them the delay in shipping. I'll go get the outdoors game or DDR.

thanks for the input.

I do the wii fit daily, for at minimum 30 minutes doing the wii step aerobics free step.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
