was reading the board the other day and found you guys, hope you dont mind me jumping on the bandwagon, I finally got our wii fit out and put it to use. hadnt been on it in months. All i did were the fun games but still it got me moving and even had me working on my balance and posture so im hoping to stay with it. Going to TRY and get up early tmrw and put in 30mins. So on that note im off to bed LOL

Welcome! I'm glad you revived this thread. We're still waiting for personal reviews for the new Wii trainer.

I have been using the wii Active for 10 days now and I am just crazy about it. It is like having a personal trainer in your living room each time. I like the way if focuses on different areas and mixes up the activities. I am doing the 30 day challenge and really like that it gives you a rest day for every two of exercise. I like this better than wii fit because it moves quickly into different exercises. I also like it better than Jillian's workout because it seems more personal to me.

Hi everyone! I just found you all and I'm a bit late to the party, but I just wanted to add my experiences to the mix too. I LOVE the wii fit, have had it now since July 3 and with that plus the alli program, I've lost 14 pounds! I bought the wii sports active yesterday and DD tried it out last night. She's super athletic works out constantly and she loved it. It gave her a great workout. I tried it this morning after my wii fit session and I love it too! I adore the dancing and sports (not doing the 30 day challenge yet as I have to go out of town in a week to a conference). My husband thinks I'm foolish for loving a "video game" and he's very skeptical. Oh well, who cares! I also heard they're coming out with wii fit plus that will have more games and will take your info over from the original wii fit. Can't wait! Hope everyone is still having fun wii-ing and getting in shape!

Hi. I got the Wii and Wii Fit for DW last week and we are both having some fun albeit with soreness.

We mainly got the Wii for Wii Fit so not into any games right now with the exception of Wii Sports that came with it and Wii Play for a 2nd wiimote.

DW loves it and it is plenty right now for both of us. Hopefully we get a few months out of it before it bores us. We will definately upgrade to the Fit Plus when it comes out. The Wii Active will be something for later if we can maintain a workout routine and get in a bit better shape. Right now it wouldn't be worth it.

Definately having fun with this!

I got the Wii fit about two weeks ago and absolutely love it.

I love my Wii Fit! It's great on those nights you are caught between being a couch potato and going to the gym. There are some nights I feel like being active, but don't want to go out of the house. The Wii Fit is perfect for those nights. It is a good workout and fun too! I love the rhythm boxing.

I have Wii sports and other types of games and am thinking about buying Wii fit. Probably next week or so. I was one of those questioning whether it really works or not because I've seen lots of mixed reviews.

It's like anything else, it works if you use it. I've lost 18 pounds using it and watching my fat intake. I've backed off of it because I'm back teaching and haven't had the time I did when I first got it, but I definately think it was worth it!

Hey guys! Update with Wii fit - I just bought the Wii fit plus and I love it! It's got some really fun new games and I think the price $19.95 at WalMart is pretty good for some cool new features. The Kung Fu is a riot! I've lost 21 pounds now although I'm not doing it as much as I was in the summer - teaching all day and directing at night is really cutting into my Wii fit time!!!

I have a WII Fit as well and love it. I have been banned for several months, but am hoping to be released this week to resume it. I just heard about the upgrade for the Fit and had no idea it was out. I will be off to Walmart tomorrow to check it out. My Dsis has been using a program that features Jillian from biggest loser (I can not remember the name of the game) She says it is intense! I am ccertain I will not be ready for that right off the back, but I am looking forward to the lazy river or whatever it is called. It is the one where you are in a bubble and you have to use your core to move up the river to the rainbow. Now there is a work out. It sure helped my balance and core strength.

I love WII fit and so does my DD6 my fav is the aerobics and funny enough her's is the yoga. Went to Dr. last week and was told I had bad balance for my age (40's) told him already knew this because my WII fit told me so guess I better be doing more of the balance part now.

Good friends love their system! I haven't made the plunge - might be a present for myself and my health.

We have had our Wii and Wii Fit Plus for almost 2 weeks. I have been doing an hour everyday and lost 4 lbs the first week. I will check again on Saturday. Hopefully I lost more.

I have never liked exercising, but this is great. Most of the time the hour just flies by!

Getting one for Christmas and can't wait!

Does anyone use the new extended game for Wii fit? I just bought it but haven't tried it. I just read it opens more games.

Is this for the original wii fit? I hadn't heard about it yet, let us know what you think!
