So for FISH this Sunday we went to the Lilley's house and had a good time playing, among other things, Wii Fit. This is a smooth game. It is definitely more than you think it will be. I had a friend that joked about seeing a youtube video that mocked the Wii Fit saying something like "Now you and your friends can enjoy getting in shape with the exercises on the Wii Fit! Exercises like leaning to the left, leaning to the right, stepping off the board, and stepping back on!"
The Wii Fit has lots more than that, all the strength stuff you really do push ups and sit ups, and you do real yoga poses as well, and even the stuff that is just stepping off and back on is in a run game so it doesn't feel monotonous. Anyway, we started playing at the Lilley's and when I entered my height and my birthdate the balance board measured my BMI and made my Mii get fat. It was quite a funny scene for the rest of According to the Wii Fit I am too high on the BMI scale, overwieght is how they put it, and not just a tad overweight, well in the middle of the overweight scale. Now I am telling myself that I'm not that bad...I mean it is because of all the muscles I have right? Muscle weighs more than fat, and all that. Truth is though, I have known for a while that I need to lose some weight. In fact my New Year's Resolution was to drop down to 175 pds. by Easter.
So later that night I'm telling Sarah about it and we decided to get the Wii Fit as our Mother's Day/Father's Day presents to each other. We set up our Mii's and got down to working out.
According to the Wii I even need to go a little further than 175 pds., losing about 3 pds every two weeks for the next 3 months to acheive a nice healthy BMI.
Will I do it? We'll see. Anyone who knows me knows I love to eat, and not healthy. But I defiantely have been staying consistent with working out on this week. Hopefully I'll post in Easter about how I now am Wii Fit. At least I'll have fun trying.
