  • Hubby told the girls he might get them a Wii for Christmas. I said, "What?! Mama wants a Wii! With Wii Fit!" The girls think I'm funny because I've never played their X-box or their Playstation.
  • I was just telling DH the other day that I want a Wii Fit! My neighbor was telling me about hers and it sounds so neat. Our stupid winters here are so long and stupid that outdoor exercise is next to impossible to do year-round so I'm going to have to find some nice indoor alternatives.
  • Add me to the list of wanted a wii!!
  • I'd love one too Unfortunately we have many, many other priorities for our money right now. One can dream, though....
  • Quote: Really? Why?
    Because I have decided that I am really happy right now with where I am. I am wearing a ten. I look athletic. I am more into maint than losing right now.

    Quote: My youngest DD had never tasted fresh pineapple. She loves it! I had to caution her to slow down as she might get a stomach ache.
    Pineapple gives Will a bright red bunghole.

    Figured out the gain from this morning. Poo and water. back to normal.
  • Quote: Guess who got a wiifit last night? My BIL picked us up one when he saw a pile of them at BestBuy. It was too late last night to hook it up, but I'm getting on it tonight to check it out.
    Hook it up ... but be aware that you don't get all the exercises and stuff, you get some of them and have to earn the rest. I have all of my Yoga exercises and it is exactly 30 minutes for my Fit Bank.

    Quote: Honestly, I cannot wait for this challenge to be over.
    I know you are ready since you are finally getting happy with your body. Don't focus on weight loss right now then ... focus on maintenance and use us to help you get that maintaining balance

    Quote: As of today, I've not re-started an exercise routine. Today, I will make that a priority. We've been getting late afternoon/evening thunderstorms every day, so walking with Hubby hasn't been an option. However, I can dust off the treadmill and really have no excuses.

    Personally, I dread the challenge being over. I have a long way to go and I need the accountability.
    Glad to hear you are getting back in the saddle or in this case the treadmill. I too will miss the challange and talking to everyone.

    Quote: Totally feeling ya on that. Not because of the peoples, because we have a great bunch, but because i am SICK of being a slave to that scale. I almost tossed the damn thing this morning....
    Just make sure you (1) open the window first, and (2) look before you throw it ... it would suck if it landed on your car or something

    Quote: good morning. i want a wii and wiifit also. Soooo bad i want one. Hopefully when i go to vegas I will win alot of money and I can buy myself one. Hahaha. How much are they running for now...$250. My best friend just get a wiifit and she loves it. She uses it everyday. I will get one....one day.
    It is $250 for the Wii, another $90 for the Wii Fit, plus you will need at least 1 extra controller as it only comes with 1 controller and numchuk.

    If you read around it is being called the Mother's Video Game, because unlike the predominately male xBox and Playstation world, more women are playing the Wii, esp mothers who don't normally play video games (I am a prime example). We have practically every gaming station, but this is the only one I play (other than my GBA when I play Monopoly or the PSP when I play Suduko)

    I find the Yoga good for someone like me who is Yoga illiterate, but the arobics isn't really aerobics except for the Super Hula Hooping, which can make me break a sweat. The Balance games are more play than exercise, but it does work on your balance for sure. I find except for a couple of the strength exercises, Lifting works better for me, but when I can't lift I try and work those in to my workout for the day.

  • We have a Wii, but finding a Wii Fit right now is quite difficult. We would buy one if we could find it.

    I always will be a blue teamer, but let's be honest. My contribution is in the chatting, not in the numbers. I can still hang out without weighing in.
  • Maybe I'll win enough money to buy everyone a Wii
  • i was looking at the bodybugg....anyone used or uses it?
  • Quote: i was looking at the bodybugg....anyone used or uses it?
    No, but being the data-obsessed freak that I am I'd love to wear one for about a week and see what it has to tell me...
  • yeah, i would love to see if it really works and how it really works. Isnt that what they wear on the biggest loser?
  • wow - I didn't even know about the bodybugg - it looks like crazy productive - I would like to try one for a week too

    wii - don't have one of these either but students have talked about it and how much their parents are into them as well

    on the tee - great, my numbers are not making me a helpful team member but maybe in these last weeks something will budge off me
