    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I love the Wii Fit stuff. When I did mine...I was 28 years old at the time...and it gave me a fat unhappy avatar and said I was 44. Boy did that motivate me to get my big butt in gear...although it seems to have the opposite affect on most people.

    hahaaha oh I'm absolutley howling!!!!

    I too refuse that fitness tip just to make the wii feel MY pain at it crying "oh" at me !!!!

    My scale on it seems to be a bit dodgy so I tend to only follow that as a guide!!

    last week I gained 7lbs in 1week and then the following day I'd lost 10lb ....hmmmmmm :huh:

    Haha! I agree! However, after a couple of weeks of adjusting to the games and how it measures and scores everything, I am usually around -8 or 9 years. My Mii keeps checking out her butt to see if it's shrinking. It cracks me up. SOMEDAY it will tell me I'm a healthy weight. However, that may be a while b/c I'm not really a typical body type and I really do have "big bones."

    I thought I was the only one who thought he was a rude little jerk telling me "Oh!" like I was hurting it!!!

    Did anyone notice when you tell it no it like slumps over in defeat?

    I spend most of my time with dancing or party games, so it's probably been 1-2 years since I used the actually Wii Fit Plus game (do use the board for other games though). I do remember laughing my @$$ off when I did the assessment and it made my Mii look like Snoopy's brother Olaf (see image below). Now that I've lost 15% BW, I need to run it again to see whether my Mii gets noticeably skinnier.

    when I first bought it a couple of years ago my age was in the 70's and now once and a while depending on what it wants me to do my age was once 20, since I am 47 I thought it was pretty good. There have been times when I wanted to throw it out the window when I step on it and it says oh, or when you start it says where have you been, you need to do this everyday, once and awhile when I get on it says great but not too much.

    It is too dang chipper when it announces "That's Obese"! I think for my husand, since he is like, rail thin, it asked him once if he was there or standing on the board....I left the room at the point....

    i haven't used mine since i started to run, it's pretty difficult to drag it around with you outside. Last i checked it was still giving my mii a belly even though i was in the "normal" range (FINALLY)

    I'll have to check it again and see if it gives me any lip this time.

    That is why I quit using it. I wanted to ask if it could fly too. Every day it would tell me I was Obese. I already knew that!!!

    Good Grief! I think the people in my office think I'm crazy now! These responses just cracked me up!! Just what I needed today!

    On another note, I mute the tv when I step on the scale! And I agree with telling it no on the fitness tips out of spite! :laugh:

    My dad's girlfriend and I were using it last night for yoga, taking turns, and we just yelled at it the whole time. It was kind of therapeutic? It was the first time that I had used it, so I'm not too annoyed with it telling my I am overweight because I am...that's why I'm here ;)

    But next time I will be putting some Pandora on instead.

    Maybe when you're 47 it'll tell you you're 35?
