I am right there with you! I too watch every bite I put in my mouth and work out. My husband says, "Hmm, maybe I should lose some weight." And the pounds start falling off of him. He lost 40 lbs last year, doing nothing but switching from cokes to diet green tea. Not watching what he ate, no exercise, just green tea! Proud…

Amen! Actually, that was part of my inspiration to lose weight. My 8-year old daughter was watching me on the fit.She said,"Mama, your mii is so fat her belly sticks out from under her shirt!" Ouch.

That was how I learned it! I used to stand mine on its end when not in use, now it sits under a table so it can be flat.

It's also kinda harsh when I weigh and then my Mii blows up like the Goodyear Blimp!

I notice an 8lb difference in my weight when I moved my wii fit from carpet to a hard floor. Also, I have recently learned that if you store your fit balance board on its end, it can cause it to be inaccurate over time.

My moment came in December of 2010. I was weighing on the wii fit, and my little mii got bigger according to my weight. My 8-year old daughter said, "Mom, your mii's so fat her belly's hanging out from under her shirt!" Ouch. I then asked my husband, who is notoriously honest, "Am I fat-fat, or pudgy-fat?" He said, "Um,…

Hilarious! Thanks for sharing! I especially love the "Urban Rebounder"!

I have been really trying to decide whether to get a treadmill or elliptical machine. You've made some points I hadn't thought about! Thanks for helping me make up my mind!:wink: BTW, I vote exercise machine!

I love Just Dance 2! There is also a dance game by Gold's Gym- dance workout or something like that. It's really fun, and it helps you set goals and make a dance program.

I am a nurse and I have the same thoughts! How can I tell my patients they need to lose weight when I need to lose more than they do? Sending you a friend request!

Isn't it great? I just entered a food for the first time, but usually everything I eat is already there, and it makes it so much easier to log my foods. I don't really have time to key in every single thing I eat, so it keeps me accurate! People obviously put a lot of time into entering foods, and I appreciate the sharing!

Welcome!

I'm 29 and I've been struggling most of my life to lose weight! This site really helps. Sending you a request now! Christy

For me, it's really hard to get started. If I can stick with it for a couple weeks, I'm usually ok, but I have such a hard time getting off to a good start. This site has really helped me be accountable since I document everything I eat and my activities. It's also really good to have friends on here that encourage me! I…

That is incredible! You've made an awesome change and you should be really proud of yourself!

That's great!

Welcome! I just joined a couple days ago. There is lots of support and helpful stuff.

I also lost a lot of weight in the past (about 48 pounds), and I swore I'd never put it back on. Well, that was about 6 years ago, and now I weigh more than ever. Yep, I gained it all back plus a few extra pounds. I'm starting all over, using some of what worked for me in the past, and some new stuff. It sounds like we…

Love it! That sounds like me. Make it worth it!
