I think I mentioned in a previous post that my brother in law and family got Wii fit for Christmas.  They’ve been staying with us for a while (and will be moving in too due to bad economic times) so I’ve gotten a pretty good chance to try it out.  My verdict?  It’s pretty damn fun.  ^_^

People say it gimmicky and others say that you really don’t loose weight by doing the games but I say who cares?  The little games are as fun as heck to play and the yoga and strength training exercises give you a good feeling of accomplishment when you play them.  I actually did find that I was losing weight after a few days of play.  So just like any real fitness training if you put in the time, you’ll see results.  It’s not super intense, but it is fun to play.  As for what I think about the balance board, I love games that make me play differently then I normally do.  It sort of kicks you down a notch from where your skills normally are and you have to learn how to play games again… sort of.

So yeah, Wii Fit totally gets my thumbs up. b ^_^ d I’d recommend it to anyone.
