    I'm 5'6" and looking to lose about twenty lbs. or get down to a size 5-6 whichever comes first. I'm currently a size 10 which isn't bad but its not where I want to be. I used to average size 6 when I modeled, which is another goal as soon as I shed some lbs!

    I am a portrait artist so my daily life is very sedentary....hence the reason I got the Wii and games. You may check out my work at www.mayatrimner.com

    I am beginning the 9 Week Challenge on Wii Sports Active 2.....hopefully that helps! I am joining this forum because I want the motivation and support and want to contribute likewise to help you all reach your goals!

    I'm a 19 year old college student. My dream is to move to LA and work in music management or audio engineering. I love music and California more than anything but I currently live in small town Wisconsin. I'm a really social person who loves to make new friends so feel free to add me and tell me all about yourself!

    Hi I am just staarting wii fit, I used to have wii fit plus but my disc messed up and instead of paying $20 for a new one, I went to the second hand store and bought the originial wi fit for $2. I figure it's not the game, but what you do with it that makes you successful. Also I am new to MFP from Sparkpeople. One reason I like MFP better is because it works with my windows phone which great. I look forward to working out with you guys.

    Hi. 5'6" married mom of two boys here. We got the Wii for the boys & I've discovered a few mom things on there I like! I like the step, yoga, hula hoop & am awesome at the zen focus thing with the candle (did I mention I teach elementary school?-I can block out anything-lol) Anyway, I find that when using the Wii fit plus there is a lot of starting & stopping, a lot of "rest time" in between activities. I may be on for 30-40 minutes, but really don't feel like I've worked out. I'm sure I'm not using it correctly, just jumping around from one activity to another. I would like to use the Wii in addition to my elliptical & treadmill. I get bored & need to switch around quite often. Hoping I can get some tips from the group on how to use it more effectively.

    Hi.

    5'10" and I have about 100 lbs to lose. I gained it all after my father died - 10 years ago! Thank God, my health is pretty good per my checkups -- no sign of diabetes, low cholesterol, and low (too low) blood pressure. Clothing and mobility has motivated me lose it.

    I've had a Wii for a couple of years but just starting to use it daily -- 2.5 months now. I use Wii Fit, Zumba, and Just Dance discs. Started with MFP on Friday and like what I see so far.

    Please add me as a friend if you'd like. I can use the encouragement.

    I'm 49, with a goal of FIFTY by FIFTY! That's 7.25 months away. I am down 3. SO..I'm single, no kids, only my dad and dogs to worry about, so WHY would I be in the predicament? First a back injury started it, then lazy, avoiding pain, and eating too much. I eat pretty well, but just too much. I LOVE wii! I typically do: tennis, cardio boxing, cycling, kayaking, running for workouts. Besides that, I like jet skiing, and try and get my 80 year old dad to do some balance games. My wish is that there was a FASTER step workout, and tennis without the interruptions when missing a shot. This is GREAT!
