Wii Fit FUN!

We were lucky enough to "borrow: a Wii Fit from my brother (thanks Douglas) over the holidays. Yesterday, while I was at work, Bob and Bobby got it out for the first time. I had been lazy about doing it, claiming I couldn't find the time. What I really needed was for someone else to do it first and then I would be ready to do it myself in the future. Last night at dinner, Bobby started talking about doing the "Wii board", so after putting Amaryllis to bed, we took it out once again to Set Mommy up" on it!

I learned that Bobby was right on target, Bob is "overweight", and I am normal. After looking at all the Mii's together though, I look rather plump next to Bobby's skinny guy! Bobby showed me a few of the things on it and then I got my turn! I can totally see how this thing could be addicting! It really is fun and it's nice to try and beat yourself too. Some of the "excersises" are more like games, so you want to compete to get a high score or time. The real excersises, well, I'm gonna have to learn how to push myself on those! It is fun and now that I really know how easy it is to get out and start, I have no excuse not to get it out daily to do it for at least 30 minutes. And I have to say that I do feel the effects of it a little!
