Hello folks.
I've just reached my 49th birthday, shock horror! :noway:
My son has surprised me with a Wii Fitness plus balance board. So I've been checking out the forums for tips on how to
approach using it in a beneficial way. We have had the Wii console for a while and it has been relegated to my home gym area.
I watch catch up TV through it while using my stationery bike.
I've been logged in to MFP constantly for 280 days :bigsmile:
After a few set backs illness/injury wise I need a boost to my weight loss and this may be the tool for me :laugh:
I'm not really interested in playing games but hope this will hold my attention and keep me motivated. I think I'd better invest in a HRM too if the calories burned are not true readings. Counting calories and earning more is a big motivation for me to get fit in a fun way.
I've not long ago joined a Zumba class so may look into buying that disc because I'm so uncoordinated. :laugh:
Have a good day!
Alison
P.s I look forward to seeing how you are all doing too. I may lag behind with the challenges but I will try to join in.

Hi! I'm Dexlar, I'm 23 and I have Wii Fit Plus. I was using for a while and I loved how it taught me to pace myself when running but when I gained 5 pounds (around my birthday) and got discouraged from using it though I really love using it. So hopefully I can face my fears and get back to using it daily0

Hi, I'm Heather. I'm 44, married with a 17 yr old and an 11 yr old. We've had the Wii Fit for a couple years now and it's what I use the most for exercise. But I need the challenges to put some order into my routine.

Hi my Name is Brenda
I have some sever feet and ankle problems. In the last 20 years I have about 10 operation where I have had many procedures done at one time. But Thank God with all that I am still able to walk.
I also deal with dyslexic.
I am a Mom of a son who was adopted at birth and was a normal adoption for a normal child. LOL He is 11 and has MANY special needs. I am 40 and have been married for 16 years.
I love my wii fit and use it all the time for my exercise. Sometimes I might do a different wii game. But wii fit is my favorite. So I am excited to join this group and be challenged and be held accountable on doing my wii exercise.0 -
Hello everyone! Santa brought me a Wii Fit and Zumba 2. I am sooo excited. I love playing the Zumba game since it seems like I get the almost the same workout when I go to my Zumba class. I work full time at Onstar, have 3 children, a dog, 2 cats, and a wonderful fiance. I want to really get into shape. I was wondering if anyone new of any resistance training for the wii? I would like to do more of this this year. Thanks! I am soo glad I joined this group!0

Hi all,
I'm 21 and my first goal is to get back to pre-pregnancy weight. After that I need to get myself into a healthy weight zone. I've been a bit slack with exercise so I decided to look for a weekly challenge group that will suit me well and this group is it!
Two days in a row now I've been over my daily calories AND haven't exercised so this week I'm going to try do as many of the previous weekly challenges as I can to kick start the year and get myself motivated again.
Also, I noticed that the end date for the week seven challenge has passed and I was wondering when new challenges are posted???0 -
is it to late to join?0

Hi, I am Paul, 47, from Wiltshire in England.
I do find the Wii fit good fun and over Christmas we bought the Zumba disc.
I would like to incorporate the Wii into my overall fitness programme especially when I find myself with some free time at home.
So hoping to find some ideas and join some challenges with this group.
Have a happy and healthy 2012 everyone.
Regards
Paul0 -

Hi, I am from the UK. I am 37, 5 foot 0 and weigh 160lb. I lost 3 stone on rosemary conley but have put 2 back on - doesn't help been short and having a sweet tooth! Starting afresh this year eating healthy, keeping a log of what I eat helps.
I am pretty active 2 zumba classes a week, jog 1 - 2 times a week and wii usually once a week - I jog and use the wii more often when I have time, which is difficult at the moment as I start work early and morning is my best time.
Hoping wii fit challenges will give me some encouragement to find more time!0 -
