What are some of the things you do to pull yourself away from games. I find that when I get enfolded in a game I game, eat, sleep, shower. I eat unhealthy forget the gym etc....

    Personally I approach it with a certain mentality. I figure I could game an extra 2 or 3 hours a day where there will be some enjoyment - but it's nothing I can't simply do later, or I can make the choice to better myself by going to the gym. That type of mentality helps me make the right choice every day.

    I get the exercise out of the way first - get back from work, get it done, and then dive into Mass Effect for however long... :smile:

    Breath of the Wild? I heard good reviews on the game and am wondering how it is for you so far?

    Also, I'm impressed you are doing leg lifts and yoga while holding the Wii U controller. That must be hard right? :no_mouth:
