DISQUS

Wii Fit Project: June baseline

  • spacecowboyian · 1 year ago
    It is awesome, when I remember to get on it. Even though it calls me a fat slob all the time, if I wanted that I would just go visit my grandma. However, it could be to my benefit if it was slightly more demeaning. Perhaps if they could actually allow me to make my grandmother my trainer I would lose plenty of water weight by crying myself to sleep at night.

    So far I have been down a pound.. then back up three pounds.. then down one and a half.. this is because I test at inconsistent times and eat FAR too much food. I believe my current wii fit age is +20 years at 48. So all in all.. I feel pretty awesome about myself and my horribly overweight and out of shape body.

    I wonder at what point it will just tell me to give up.

    Okay - I am taking a shot at this too - love your blog and the fact you are keeping us informed. We had some fun at our house with three generations giving it a shot (www.jencarole.blogspot.com) and I think Nintendo blew it on not making it something we could personalize (www.teenlab.blogspot.com) but it sill a darn good time. I can't wait to see how you do this month - but you guys have an advantage - it's SO much easier for you to lose weight! (>>jealous!).

    I definitely feel stronger and have better balance after 2 weeks of using the Wii Fit. I also have slightly better endurance. As for weight loss or shrinking waist, I have not made any progress in either category really. I think the muscle gain is offsetting any weight loss. I know my abs have grown, I can feel the difference, and this may be why my waist size is still the same after two weeks. As of tonight, I have lost 4 pounds, but this is over the course of 16 days now. There has been a pattern of when I lose weight one day, I gain weight the next. Overall I am slowly losing weight, but my graph for weight loss is very up and down. If I gain weight tomorrow, I may have only lost 2 or 3 pounds in this much time. I'll wait and see. I know in the long run it is doing good for me, but since the focus is on weight, I was hoping to have better results so far.
