Wii Fit!
      #297995 - 05/01/2009 23:08

I am simply loving this thing!I am in hot competition with my 12 year old nephew who has only had his since Christmas.We have had ours for 2 months and we are addicted.Its really good fun and great when you have all the family or friends round.You think you will only go on it for 30 mins and find 2 hours later there you are still stuck on the thing and its midnight!How sad are we! Knackered but getting fit.And not wasting money down the boring old gym.Get one today!!!!

Hi Helen1954 and welcome to the forum. The Wii Fit was my totally surprising Christmas present from OH, and like you we've had loads of fun with it, competing against YS and GF and MS and DIL over the holidays.

I'm addicted to the advanced table tilt and the yoga, and I've rediscovered the joys of the hula hoop.

Hi Sella-Vee.Thanks for the welcome.Never joined anything like this before,but it seems like fun.Who are YS GF MS and DIL?I probably am being really thick here but maybe you can bring me up to spec!!
I just love the ski jump!As soon as i get a lousy score i restart it to get a better one.Sad cow!Am loving boxing and hula hoop too.Jogging is harder and makes me realise how unfit i am.If OH means husband he is thrashing me on the step beginner and advanced.This is just awful.I will have to step up my game!!!!

Hi Helen1954. Welcome to the Forum. Translation for you: YS is youngest son, GF is girlfriend, MS is middle son, DIL is daughter in law.

I'd love a Wii Fit. In the meantime, I'll have to be content with training for the MoonWalk, which I start tonight. Have to say though, I am not looking forward to going out at 4pm today for a 5 mile walk.....

Hi Helen and welcome to the forum

Had a wiifit and sold it - hated it! Probably doesn't help that our Tv has a 17" screen

Hi and welcome to the zany world of the forum!

I'm thinking of getting one just for the fit thing, can I use it by myself? You mention the competitive aspect but can just one player use it?

*and there I was thinking I was smart*

Hello MrsT

yes you can use it by yourself - try and borrow one first and see if you like it. I think it;'s probably more fun if you have someone to compete against.

Hi Helen

You've prompted me to start using mine again. I got a bit bored with it and stopped using it a couple of months ago, but I did enjoy the ski-ing and the boxing.

I agree with Chilla that it's probably more fun if you have someone to do it with - OH isn't interested but if he was I think I would use it more.

Chilla, someone mentioned the hula hoop thing and I instantly thought of you bellydancing and now I want to try it! I really must get a life outside the forum

I have one too. Wy don't we all get registered (I have already) through the internet system and then we can compare training etc. Like going to the gym en masse!! (Only cheaper and without a hint of lycra anywhere!). If you register your bought items then it costs nothing. Go to he website club-nintendo.com and it guides you through the process! Then if you look on the map you can find out where everyone is. You can e-mail messages see scores and all sorts!! We could also excercise in between e-mails messages etc....

I have one too but hadn't bothered to register it, what a great idea, I'll do it today! I did the fitness test this morning and yoga, I like to do the energetic stuff when I get home.

I really fancy getting one. Does the Wii fit include tennis as I'd like that, or is that in the sports package?
Would appreciate info on what you get in a Wii fit pack, and do you need to buy extras for it? Thanks.

Red I think you can buy a package but if not you can buy individually.
