Smile Wii Fit

Does anyone else use it? I've only had it about 5 days but I've already lost 3 lbs. Do you like it? Are you getting Wii Fit Plus? Thoughts?

As much as I'm sweating with it I can assure you it is no gimmick. It amazes me how much of a work out you can get on a simple balance board. Muscles are hurting me that I didn't even know I had. It's depressing when it puts you in the obese category during the body test, but it makes such a big deal out of whatever progress you make that it really doesn't matter.

We had a local agency write a grant and buy one for an adult foster home here. The residents think they are playing a video game when they are really exercising.

The thing I have is called Wii Active I think.
I'm assuming it's similar. I love it so much! I have always had a hard time exercising because it's hard for me to do the same thing for a long time, but it's so varied I can work out for an hour without being bored. It's great.

It's really motivating because it gives you a goal and a calendar and it makes boring old workouts seem fun when you have the animated accompaniment.....plus, even if all the workouts aren't that hardcore, its totally worth it, because I feel like its meant to inspire people to exercise outside of Wii Fit on a regular basis.
