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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
