Wii Fit Team - September!!!!!!

To everyone not loosing - measure yourself! I have been very concerned over the fact that I haven't lost any weight in a few months. But, I measure myself every month and my waist inches went down first. Then my hip inches went down 2 inches.

Hang in there, the weight will come off and seeing the inches move keeps me hanging in there.

I started back on the Wii last night. Only 3076 steps in 30 minutes and it wasn't as painful as I thought it would be. So, I will set a goal for this month of at least 4 x a week for 30 minutes or more.

It's raining here and cold. The Wii sure comes in handy on days like today.

Happy Wednesday all,

JAM

I would like to join this team, even though it's October. I will commit to 20 minutes 3X a week. I love my Wii Fit but I haven't been using it in a while.

Been working on strength a lot more in the past two weeks. Got in my 30 today and a high score.

Ok, I'm back to working out again. It was terrible taking a week off. I'll try not to do it again.

I've decided to wait for the Wii Fit Plus until Christmas. This way I know I will get something I want.

Good luck to everyone this weekend. :drinker:

May we all make good choices.

Kaja - Congradulations on getting 3530 on the free step! That's awsome.

JP- I admire you working on strength with such dedication. I get so worked up over getting more calories, I've gone back to skipping strength and yoga.

15- grats on the free step score.

I did 40 minutes this morning: 10 minutes free run and 30 minutes free step. I'm pretty beat right now. This afternoon we are hoping to go on a family walk and see the aspens. We live near the National Forrest, so it will be beautiful up on the ridge behind our house. We can't hike much due to my daughter's hip injury.

I don't know what my goals are any more. lol For this next week I hope to do 40 minutes a day every day I can and mix it up a little.

Have a great day all,

JAM

JP- Good luck with the 5k.

My 15 year old daughter challenged me to run a 5k with her next summer after she recovers from her hip surgery. Poor thing-she can't run, jump, dance or do any impact sports until she gets her operation. The injury is now 2 years old. It is a constant fight with the insurance company to get them to do anything.

I got on the WII for 14 minutes of strength training this morning before work. I went back to 10 reps on everything just so I don't injury myself. Hopefully, I can get 10-15 minutes of some form of excercise in 2-3 mornings a week.

Happy Monday!

Is there an October thread I should be following now??

30 - strength today - high score on Push-up Side plank - 100 points for 6!

just bought the ww fit plus as the other was getting boring and with hot weather not using plan on using 3 times a week and fitness coach 2 times a week and active 3 times a week . gained weight over summer have to get if off

The only reason we started a new one in sept is that we had over 20 pages and it was getting quite long, we had the same thread for months before that though so I wouldn't feel that there has to be a new thread :bigsmile:

Ammcnett - Remind yourself that you will feel so good afterward. And it is good for the baby. Motivation is the hardest part. I thank goodness for my friend Kris everyday. She is the walking Queen and she drags me out almost every day. It is nice to have an external motivation for those days when the internal one fails miserably. My baby is 9 and I am just now getting the motivation to get this weight GONE!!! It aint easy, but it is worth it. What do they say? Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels. Do some of the fun exercises and balance games, they are more easy to get motivated on.....You can do it!

I did it. :happy: I got back on my WII. I did 10 minutes of yoga and 5 minutes of balance games yesterday. I will try to get on again today. Hopefully on Friday, since I am unable to go to the gym I should be able to get on for a while.

Congratulations!!! Don't you feel great afterwards? You actually did it!

2 weeks to lose 3.5 pounds to hit my first goal. Yipes. Maybe I was a bit optimistic? My next goal is to be half way by Christmas. That is 13 pounds. I can do that, right?

Hello everyone,

I changed up my routine today and it really made me sweat. I did 10 minutes free step, 10 minutes free run, then 10 minutes free step again. I'm going to try and do this 2-3 times a week. See if it breaks this plateau I'm on.

Hope everyone is having a good evening.

Thanks Jam, This weekend wasnt great for food. I had company so I cooked and ate of course. I did still walk 4 miles on Saturday and 3 on Sunday. Today I plan to walk 4 miles after work but I have a sick boy from school and I dont feel well myself. I'm not sure I should be walking in this nasty weather with an upper respiratory thingy creeping up, but I'll see how I feel @ 3pm when I get outta here!

I hope everyone is feeling good about where they are at in their own process. I get sidetracked for a day now and again, but I am truly dedicated to see this through to the end. 101 POUNDS!!!
