    Excellent!!! LETS DO THIS!!! I'm IN.
  • I am in!!! Gotta get my butt moving. 6 lbs in Jan was great but I know I can lose more than that and still do it the healthy way. Most of my weight is water weight and I know I can do this. 14 hours that is just 30 mins a day for the entire month. We can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • My birthday is coming up and my son sent me a Wii Fit 4 Life....I will try to connect it this weekend, count me in. Any suggestions on a good game to start?

    I only hooked my Wii Fit up last month but i have fallen in Love with it. I started with the Yoga stretches, then do a couple of the strength exercises and finish it off with a couple of the aerobics games. And if I am still in the mood to play, i do some of the balance games. Those tend to make me mad cause I always mess up:explode: . Guess I am not too balanced but it is still fun. And it is better than sitting on the couch eating.

    Great Job Pixie . I "fell off" the Wii wagon yesterday. I usually leave time in the evenings and forgot we had a committment for a superbowl party. Left the house and 3 in the afternoon and did not get home until after midnight. Will have to work twice as hard tonight.

    Well I know it's the 6th already but I am sure I can do this! I am going to do zumba right now on the wii for 60 minutes! Besides, when my kids are here next week this is usually what we do. I can exercise and play with them at the same time. :)

    7 strength exercises
    10 minutes of advanced free step

    Total for February 110 minutes

  • Not sure if I can get 14 hours in or not. I will try. I have built up to 30 min. doing Walk it out on the Wii and am able to do that 3x a week. I am trying to build that up to 7x a week. So, I have 4 days of WIO in and 2 days of shoveling snow. I think the shoveling was harder. LOL.

    Sorry guys - I totally failed the January challenge.

    Started again for February - 26 minutes today. I did a mix of jogging (9 min), rowing squats, parallel stretch and hula hoop. I find that hula hooping gets me sweatiest and feels most strenuous. I also played the penguin game.

    Don't think i will make it unless there is a Wii at the sales meeting in Vegas during the last 6 days of the month. Kinda doubt it. :sad:

    Ok so today is the 18th and I started the 6th. Not getting off to a good start since I have been working late. No excuses from now on! I have another 45 minutes of Yoga on the Wii so that's brings my total to 3.5 hours so far. I can still do this - just gonna take quite a bit of work. lol

    I’ve only just come across this group. Although I not going to make the 14 hours, I’d love to see just how many I could do by the 28th :smile:
