I used the Wii as a weight scale (don't have a scale yet but being looking at a Fitbit one) and I play Zumba. What about you?

    I use the Wii nearly everyday. I really enjoy the basic run. It helps you keep a constant pace to burn max calories. It also get s my kids off the couch, as they see it as just playing video games.

    I use the Wii My Fitness Coach program 6 mornings a week 30 minutes Tuesday through Friday and 60 minutes each on Satirday and Sunday. I find it gives a great all around workout program and you can adjust to your conditioning level and set target areas to work on.

    I used to use my Wii about 5 or 6 days a week and it was the only scale I used.
    I did aerobics, running, boxing, hula hooping and the obstacle course. I only stopped because I moved overseas and left it with my mother.

    I never did get the Wii Fit but did use EA Active 2 for the first 20 or so pounds of my weight loss. Was a good workout although the sensors had an annoying way of dying on you ( even despite full battery power) for no reason. Was never fun to survive through a ton of rounds of foot fires and mountainboarding only to have your workout not count!! Lol. Liked that it had a workout schedule and tracked calories for you ( not sure how accurate the number was though).

    But now I've invested in a Kinect so going to try some fitness stuff with that and see how it works out.

    I do Just Dance or Michael Jackson with my daughters on the Wii. They like to dance and it gets us doing something together. It's also fun to watch my 9 year old try her hardest to beat me and watch my 6 year old dance like MJ. lol
