We’ve been thinking about buying a Wii for some time and I’ve got some question for all of you who have been doing the Wii Fit. How do you like it so far, is it challenging and do you get a good workout with it? Are there quirks or other things to be aware of with it? Anything you can tell me will help, thanks – Frank.

Frank - We've had a Wii since Day 1 and I would definetly recommend it, but don't base your decision soley on Wii Fit. The system itself, though short on memory and the graphics power of its competitors, is excellent. Wii Fit will not help people get the heavy weight off, but it may get people to motivated to actually get started. The reports/graphs, etc are an excellent tool to track one's progress (you can even enter your non-Wii exercise time into your log).

Happy Monday all! I'm currently on the train back from NYC and trying to type on a bouncing laptop is quite an adventure!

Had a great lunch today - a meatball bounced off my shirt! It's a very good look for me!

Lots of bouncing today!

I have been wanting to get out and see if the WII Fit is available myself but haven't had a chance. Definitely have to make the time.

Frank-

So far I love it! To me, it is challenging, but I've only been doing it for a couple of days. And I was sore and was breaking a sweat from it, so I think it's doing something. At least it better be! I also really like how it keeps track of time you've put into it and it keeps track of your weight/BMI. But I do think they need to continue to add games that will be compatible with the Wii Fit. I'm sure over time, it will probably start to get old, like all the other exercise videos I have collecting dust. But overall, we LOVE the Wii. It's been a great way for the entire family to play together. It still doesn't beat being outside in this great weather but it's a better alternative than being a couch potato in my opinion. Especially now that the weather is starting to get too hot.
