    Tammie- just step on and off the balance board while your watching TV for x number minutes switching legs every 5 minutes. lol. It's the same thing as doing the Free Step except you won't have to suffer through the annoying voice.

    Seriously, call around. Maybe some one can clean the disc for you. Also, write Nintento. Maybe they will give you a second one cheaper. I did that once with a kid's video game they scratched. They only charged me $20.00 for a replacement CD since I had the right info to prove I had already bought a copy.

    Good Luck!

    Tammie,

    I had the same problem with my Wii. It would not read the wii fit or smash brothers brawl discs. All other games played fine. I had to send it (the Wii console and the discs) to Nintendo (free of charge) and they replaced the read disc in the console. If I am not mistaken, they said there was some kinda disc error with those two games, because they are dual layer (DVD9), maybe. Anyway, they fixed it and I had my Wii back in about 4 days and it all works well. You should check the help section on the Nintendo site, that might help.

    i only did 37 minutes today! but i'm really sore from just starting to use to wii fit. I'm still unlocking games too! my room mates love the game as much as i do!

    but i do have a question, do you guys use wii fit scale? it said i was 4 pounds lighter than the scale in my bathroom. I researched what people have said, and some say it works for them and others say its off. I just want to know what you guys think.

    Im Hooked.... I love doing the wii fit!!! I keep wanting to do more challenges.. this morning i did 42 minutes then i did 25 at lunch (while the baby was napping ) and im planning on doing 30-40 more tonight... i love it cause i can feel my abs getting a work out and my legs but i don't feel run down or worn out...Im trying so hard to lose weight before my son's 1st birthday and i think the wii will help me get there ...

    SuprJewels: I hate when things don't work when i need them too so i do whatever it takes to fix the issue... My kids call me handy mommy instead of handy mandy cause im always fixing things and not waiting around for someone else to do it...

    My Wii Fit Scale is about 2 LBs lighter than my regular scale I think thats because the we fit is on carpet ( it makes me feel better to here a lower number from the thing because as I have said before its been very rude and groans at me :tongue: Yeah to Tammie (sounds like my big fat greek wedding " Windex fixs everthing) Although your sons could have been right licking it might have worked too :noway: No work out for me today ( I would say its a rest day but the truth is I was to stinking busy running errands To bad I really didnt run I took the car.:blushing: Shoot if I use the word running does that count:bigsmile:

    I don't use the Wii scale as my guide. It changes too much as I don't excercise the same time every day. I go by my bathroom scale.

    I hadn't done the boxing in such a long time, I was holding the thing backwards and it didn't count any of my left hand punches. I thought the thing had broke and felt very silly when the kids told me I was holding the dumb thing wrong. lol

    Oh well, have a nice Monday all and see you all on checking Tuesday.

    For me, the Wii fit is more consistent than my bathroom scale. I use the Wii every day and the bathroom scale a couple of days a week. Even so, I use the bathroom scale for my "official" weekly wt.

    I've logged about 33 total hours on the Wii so far.

    Fitgal, thanks for the new thread! (I've been away for 4 days, lol)
    It's check in day!! I only did the Wii twice this week, 30 mins each. No time!! I try to walk at work on my lunch too, so sometimes I don't get to the Wii. I don't have as busy of a week this week so we will try for 3 days at 30 mins each.
    Good luck everyone! :flowerforyou:

    So i was wondering if we could make a challenge out of using our wii ???


    I was thinking if everyone posted their weight , how many minutes a week they do their wii and then post how much weight they want to lose in a week by using their wii's as a workout and see how much we all can really lose use by getting on our wii fits and working out ... and of course eating healthy just a idea ..

    Hello all,

    I turned 40 hours on my Wii last weekend. (woot, woot) I did meet my goal of 4 days a week at 30+ minutes each time. I've been mixing it up trying to do a total workout.

    Finally, the scale moved. I'm down 2 lbs from where I got stuck at the end of July.

    Gratz all who made their goals!

    Hang in there and just try again this week for those who didn't.

    Hi guys!

    Thanks to SuperJewls :wink: I just got back on my wii for the second time since I've owned it yesterday. :embarassed:

    I did 60 minutes total and burned 200 calories according to my HRM.

    It was so much fun after unlocking "Super Hoola hoop" and "Advanced Step". I also unlocked "free step". My Heartrate was really up there with the hoola hooping.

    I plan on getting back on today:

    Tammietifanie - I'm 156 and plan on getting on 3 times a week. I wish to lose 10 lbs. Thanks for the challenge.

    How about we do some challenges on individual games also. Like some of the other "Wii Fitters" do. For example. I did about 1800 spins in Super hoola hoop, i think (10 minutes). Also, it was about 780 steps with the Advanced step. We can post the scores and have the whole week to impove on them. Then at the end of the week the highest score wins the challenge. Just a thought :flowerforyou:

    Spicy you confused me! I clicked on you thinking I was going to our buddies. Then I came here. :laugh: :laugh: I'm glad you joined us.

    I have worked out my 3 days at 30 minutes. I've actually went over and did 5 days at 45 coins.

    I like the challenge idea. I'm going to do my workout and then post my high scores. Just to see if anyone wants to challenge and top them or has already topped them. Great idea!
