Seriously, I am wii-ing all the time

So the big moment arrived. I finally received my much anticipated Wii Fit!!!

I was hesitant to even open it since I was so easy to disappoint by the time it got here. That aside, I am here to tell you “WOW! Nintendo has really done it this time!”

So here are the highlights thus far (Day 5 – Fit Age 35):

- Starting it is easy and fun: they make the first test really easy to get through in a matter of moments.

- Guilt is good: This thing is honest in ways that has gotten it into trouble when consulting preteen girls on their weight. However those same methods seen as unfair for one audience are super effective for another. For example: if you gain weight, it asks you why you think you gained. One of the choices is late night snacking (…you know who you are snackers) so I am now starting to find that prior to eating that cookie (or 4) at eleven I am saying to myself “Do you really want to fess up to that tomorrow on the fit? Step Away from the cookie and no one gets hurt.”

- Feedback early and often: The trainer that works through all the exercises with you doesn’t wait for a rep to be over to tell you how to improve another one. They also are quick to recommend other activities that could help improve the weaknesses you are experiencing.

- Benchmarking: You are scored on everything and, unless you lock your data, compared to your fellow fitters. Seth and I have turned this into a game within a game to see who can play king of the mountain on the high score boards for a certain activity.

More to come on our progress, I have a long way to go – my Wii Fit age is still 35!
