I have never used it and have wondered what it's all about. It looks much cooler than I thought! Nice abs too girl! That burger sounds divine, totally a foodie combo!

I have tried the Wii Fit and really fell in love! I agree that it would never replace regular workouts, but it's a fun way to burn a few extra calories if you're going to be playing a video game, anyway. I wish my in-laws would buy us one!

I'm actually totally embarrassed now that I posted these. I should have thought to wear a shirt for this. Oh well ;) Oh and the workouts are not intense if compared to bootcamp but I think yoga and strength moves are pretty good AND you get the benefit of knowing whether you're aligned correctly because the board knows how much weight you put on each side of it. :) Also, there are Jillian Michaels and Biggest Loser games for the wii too that utilize the same board. Those could be more intense. Something to research... :D Hehe, thanks for the compliments everybody. I’m actually totally embarrassed now that I posted these.

What's up, hottie? You look great! I really want to try Wii Fit; every time Kyle goes into Game Stop, I debate whether or not to purchase it. Maybe I will, now. Whoa! What’s up, hottie?

My family has wii fit. I think it's great for them because it gets kids interested in working out for competition. We have a wii but not fit. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't use it much because it would take forever for me to get an intense enough work out. I LOVE onions! lay them on!

Unfortunately my enthusiasm waned. I just got the updated version though so I'm looking forward to getting back into it again. I got Wii Fit a little over a year ago and absolutely loved it.

Sure the aerobic exercises aren't exactly going to help you train for a marathon, but they're a good warm up to get your heart rate up for the strength training exercieses and the yoga moves. If you supplement the strength training routines with some weights I think you could get a pretty decent workout. I plan on doing cardio and some weights at the gym, and finishing up with wii fit. We'll see how it goes! As the ‘exercise beginner’ :) , I think the wii fit is great.
