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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
