    Hi Everyone!
    Did not exercise last night because hubby and I went out for Valetine's Day dinner with friends.
    I will be on the Wii tonight and record my progress tomorrow. I usually weigh everyday so I will probably
    give my results on Friday's if that is okay or have you set a certain day. Let me know with a
    message. Thanks :happy:
    I will be starting the St. Patrick's Day Challenge soon so Friday's are good for me for weight in.

    I did 30 minutes of Free Step while watching a movie and then another 30 min of Advanced Step. (I was off yesterday so I could do it randomly throughout the day.

    I also did some yoga while I had it out because I know my flexibility is horrid.
  • So much 4 treating myself 2 a lazy day.... 1hr free step complete ;-) xxxxx

    Hey everyone!! Great to see so many of us joining in on this challenge!! I love it. :)

    For those of you who don't have Wii Fit but have other Wii games, or have Wii Fit and want to substitute other games, that's perfectly fine for this challenge.

    I'm wanting to get some ideas together for the next couple of weeks' challenges, so if anyone has anything fun or creative in mind using the Wii Fit exercises or activities, please feel free to suggest them.

    We have company over for dinner this evening, so I'm not sure whether I'll get to any steppin' today, but if our company leaves early enough, I may very well put Free Step on while I watch Biggest Loser tonight. Anyone else a fan of the show??
  • I'm in....just need to recharge my batteries! Is this 1 hour a day or 1 hour a week? I am a little confused on that part. Love my Wii Fit Plus, but have not had it out in about 6 months...thanks for the "challenge"

    izzys1mom -- 1 hour this week... but, if you'd like to challenge yourself to 1 hour a day, that's absolutely fine too! Good luck :)
  • Im doing 1 hour a day! xxx
  • On the wii fit there's a free step option. (I think that's what it's called) You just set the time you want to do it.
    It will play a little metronome type sound on your wii remote and you step on and off the board to that rythm so you can set your wii fit to the free step and watch tv at the same time:-)

    GREATTT job everyone!!! You're all doing SO well, keep it up!!

    I'm still holding steady at 10 minutes of Advanced Step. However, I have a lot of other workouts that I do regularly, but I plan to get on the Wii Fit this evening for at least a few minutes.

    How interested would everyone be in having a weekly weigh in on the thread? Maybe at the end of each week, or whenever is convenient for each person. My usual weigh in day is on Thursdays, so that would work for me, but I wanted to see what some of you thought. Thanks!

    Hi Everyone,
    I just did 20 minutes on Free Step. I put my Wii board up on my regular step. I am really sore from all my other workouts so it got pretty tough at the end.
    I like the idea of weighing in. It will be easy since we are already on the Wii board.
    Take care everyone!

    OK! Well, let's go with that... Weekly Weigh-Ins on Thursdays. Even if you normally weigh in on a different day of the week, just post your number on Thursday. We can start tomorrow, for anyone interested in weighing in!! Good luck, everyone!! :)

    I just put in another 10 minutes of Advanced Step, bringing my total so far to 20 minutes. Another 40 to go!

    Also, my weekly weigh in. I'm at 162.3. A 0.2 lb loss from last week. I was really hoping to be under 160 by today's weigh in, but I won't frown at my small loss. I'll just keep moving forward and do everything I possibly can to make it happen next week! :)
  • Did 45 minutes aerobics today and 2hrs walking instead of the step! Back to the step 2moro tho ;-)

    I dont weigh until 2moro so im fine with the cw on my signature to be used ;-D xxxx

    I weigh on Fridays so I'll just use the weight from the previous week if that works.
  • Thanks for joining, everyone! Welcome!
    IS THERE ANYWAY JUST TO KEEP DOING ONE THING FOR AN HOUR LIKE STEPPING WALKING RUNNING..OR DO U JUST KEEP STARTING OVER??

    I'm pretty sure we'll just have to start over after each ten minute increment. :)

    If you do "free step" then you can go as long as you want. what's neat is the wii remote will make a clicking noise to keep you on step and then you can actually watch tv at the same time and the wii will keep working and tell you whne your done.

    Tonight I did the hula hoop basic and advanced, kung fu advanced (I like it), Training Plus; running in place, (the marching parade advanced) that one really killed, and dance steps both basic and advanced.

    Oh, and Thursday weigh in is fine for me because I am doing a St. Patrick's Day Challenge too and they weigh in on Thurdays:tongue:

    Just did about 35 minutes, so I have my hour for the week. I did some hula hoop, soccer, step aerobics, and a few other things. Glad I got my workout in!
