Who plays Wii Fit?

How many of you play wii fit and how long? Have you lost weight on it? I just recently got back into using wii fit. I have to be honest, I have been slacking off and not exercising which is one of the reasons I bought the thing in the first place. Now I gained about 5 pounds. I am currently weighing in at 170 lbs which is very obese for a five footer like myself. I used to give myself the excuse since I work very long hours I was too tired to do it. But now that I see my stomach droop some more, I realized I need to stop making excuses and just jump back into it. I did good for doing a half hour on it for not using the wii fit the last 21 days (isn't it neat that it tracks how long you have not been there lol). Boy I feel it in my hips though lol. My goal is to see if I can lose about 10 pounds in three months. I have been cutting back on the junk food and pop to aid in my quest. So what is your goal?

I really want the Wii fit but it is so hard to find! I occasionally slack off for a month or so on my regular Wii, but I always come back to it. I rarely play my PS3 because if I have time to play something, I want to exercise too. I gained 8 pounds this summer even though I was swimming almost everyday. But normally, every summer I gain 15 or more pounds. So 8 isn't too bad. Still, I want to lose that weight now and fit into my smaller pants again. Do you find the Wii fit is more helpful than the regular Wii games alone? My goal would just be to lose those 8 pounds. But I could definitely stand to lose 15 more after that at least.

Yeah it took a while to find a Wii Fit myself. I got mine by serious luck when I was at gamestop earlier this spring and happen to spot tbe wii fit box on the shelf. I knew the assistant manager and asked them if they had a working wii fit balance board. He showed it to me and it was just a little dirty and it was used value since someone traded it in. So I tried it when I got home and there was not a thing wrong with it. So anyway, I hope you do happen to get one this year if not for Christmas!!!

Now that is some good luck! I will have to check GameStop again. They never seem to have anything out here, but maybe there is a chance. I'm thinking it probably won't be until after Christmas though that I can find one since people are trying so hard to buy them as presents.
