Default Wii have come to join you.

Hello everyone. Just joining… so a quick background.

I’m one of the few guys I see round here. Hope that isn’t a problem.

I weighed 125 lbs and had a 28 waist when I got married. 15 years later, thanks to an ageing metabolism, heavy work load, lots of study time, no exercise and relying on fast food to survive… I now weigh 235 lbs.

So… goals to get my life back: First, I just want to get my BMI from Obese down to Overweight. Then I’ll take the next step from Overweight down to “Normal.” As a second goal, I want to build back up stamina… to go enjoy the outdoors again.

So what started all this? Well, I got a Wii for my Birthday. So I went out and bought the Wii Fit to go with it. Silly, I know… but whatever it takes to get the ball rolling.

Hi and welcome to 3FC!

Wii and Wii Fit are not silly. I love mine and I use it often

Good luck with your goals.

Hugs

Wink The Wii ROCKS!!!!

All you had to do was mention the Wii and I had to respond.

You've got to get Punch Out. It's a great workout. I also enjoy EA sports for the Wii.

Oh hey I started out at 235. We've got something in common.

Good for you for getting the ball rolling!

I know you can do it!
