I have the Wii system and I absolutely LOVE it; however I view it as supplemental exercise. I do not use it as my main source of exercise as I don't believe it will help maximize weight loss results. In conjuction with Wii I do Zumba, Body Pump, Body Flow, Boot Camp, Eliptical and Personal Training sessions. I need to add more weight machine workouts. I'm losing a steady amount of weight. Continue using Wii but make sure you get other forms of exercise as well. What is your FAVORITE Wii fit exercise? Mine is HULA HOOP.

I saw online where the weight limit was 300 lbs but my husband is 312 and works out on it with no problems.

Has anyone found a weight limit? I guess I ask becasue jsut becasue I am very large does not mean I don't have the energy to exercise, so having weight limits on almost anything now a days kind of discourages me if you will. I know you have to be told you need to lose wiegh thtis and that on the Wii fit but is there a way to bypass that and just start to exercise? And why if it's an exercise machine they have to have such a low weight limit I know 300lbs in not low but for most it is...

I love the balance games.

I love the boxing I get a good workout from that. My arms and waist get sore from it.

I really like the advanced step as well. I put in arm movements and extra spring in my step. I think I might eventually add some weights to it.

I don't love the hula hoop because it hurts lol but I do it and I am sore from it!

I LOVE my Wii Fit. I got it for Christmas and I played it non-stop for a week. I love the hula hoop and balancing games. Step aerobics is fun too. I know I should be using it more than I am and that was the original thought...

I am hopefully going to be banded in March or April of this year (that has been a game all in itself) and I am so excited.

I love the Wii fit. The step is great and the hula hoop. I just unlocked the boxing (punching bag) game and I love it. I was so sore after doing it for about 10 minutes. I only get to use it on the weekends and it is in addition to my running 5 days per week. I think it is a great addition to a workout routine.

The Wii Fit is great and I use it as a add on to my daily gym workout another good one is Jillian Michales from Biggest Looser has a work out for the Will but get ready to run you burn a ton of calories.

I am on day 15 with the mine and I am still loving it. I use it to work out two times a day and I really love using it in the mornings. I agree that it cannot be used for your total workout but if you exagerate some of the moves you can burn more calories. I really like doing the free run in the morning since it really helps to get my day started. I plan on resuming the gym in the very near future but for now this is working out perfect for me.

I finally started doing the strength training and it is now my favorite thing to do. Sometimes I will spend 45 minutes just doing them over and over again.

I saw on ABC news that Wii fit will have two pound and 5 pound hand weights that are computerized and work with the Wii system.

I bet that really will boost everyones workout. The news story stated they are not on sell yet, but you can be placed on a wait list to get the hand held weights.

I got the Wii & Wii Fit for Xmas, although we finally got it only about 2 weeks ago. I love it, it's a lot of fun and I like competing with DH and beating his score--which motivates him to do better too.. heh!

      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.
