Love my new Wii Fit

For 4.5 months, I have been trying to find a Wii Fit. They have been impossible to get. But I finally found one!!!

At 8:30 p.m. tonight, Andrew got it out of the box & hooked up, and made us start. It is fantastic!

Stand on the balance board, and it knows your weight, BMI, and "real" age (based on your balance, strength, ...). My real age is the same as my actual age - so that is GOOD news for me!!! Unfortunately for Andrew, his real age is 33, not 9. So the Wii Fit exercises will be great for him as well.

The Wii Fit works on your balance, strength posture. It shows you where you are now, and then through exercises, helps you improve. There are many different exercises, in the categories of: yoga, balance, strength training, & aerobic. It tracks your progress over time.

Tonight I tried every single exercise that was unlocked. And I did 61 minutes of actual exercise (the time between exercises does not count). I had my Bodybugg on (tracks calories) - and I burned between 5-12 calories per minutes. The most was on running. Yes - I ran, at least in place.

Here is more info on the Wii Fit.

Andrew was mad that he had to go to bed. But I wasn't going to bed until I had 60 minutes of exercise!

This picture is obviously not me. It shows the hula hoop aerobic exercise. I was pretty good at it. Boy, does it BURN the upper thighs. Ouch! Same burn as my Tahitian dance class last year.

Great investment!
