Wii Fit and hot day with my husband
WiiFit reviews with my husband ![]()
My husband surprised me by bringing home a WiiFit yesterday. This is a guy who has never wanted to work out with me, yet we took turns last night trying our skills a balancing, dodging soccer balls and even Yoga poses. I had so much fun that I woke up this morning at 5AM to play again before getting ready for work. It actually said to me this morning, “my you’re up early.”
If that’s not motivation, I don’t know what is. We live in South Louisiana where the heat index yesterday was 103 with humidity that rivals that of the rainforest. It’s not conducive to outdoor workouts what-so-ever. For less than the cost of a month of gym membership for both of us, we’ve got a great tool that actually makes getting some exercise fun in the indoor comfort of one’s private living room (also eliminates those embarassing Yoga gafs people fear).
It’s not easy, but the challenge is the fun part and opening up a little friendly competition between spouses is a great way to stay motivated and focused on a weightloss goal.
Also, FYI, the pound limit for the US version is 330 lbs. In case the weight limits had folks staying away, apparently Nintendo knows that Americans are a bunch of fatties comparied to other countries.
It’s the best Wii toy we’ve had yet.

My wife and I love our Wii Fit and can relate to your frustration with the humidity because we live in the South as well. Make sure you eat a healthy diet and you’ll definitely see a difference as you continue with your Wii Fit routine. Good luck,
Jason
