The Wii - what a workout!!

OMG!! I read in the paper a a while ago that people have lost like 18 pounds from playing the WII. Now we have one and so does my grandfather. Ive never done the boxing because i didnt want to look like a fool. But sunday I visited my grandfather to make bread. While it was cooking we played the WII and i tried boxing! BOY do you work up a sweat. I played boxing again last night and oh my gosh my arms are KILLING ME.. which is good though because hey i need to tone them up and lose the flab before the wedding!.. So i think the wii is now part of my workout regimine

He-He I use DDR on playstation....that really gets me going!

Thats why i didnt want to box is the wii because i never did it before and wouldve felt like a fool.. but now i wont care since i've now played..I am sooo uncordinated too! I desperately want to take dancing classes before the wedding.. Hey you think i could learn some moves from DDR??

okay nah.. but i really want to learn.. i've seen dvds that teach you how to dance for your wedding.. you think those work?

i hope FH doesnt see this thread.

he will think its a good reason to play video games, and i complain enough about the time he spends with them

luckily FH isnt into video games, only when i play. I think its good for the wii to be so active because thats all kids do nowadays and dont exercise. So if they are going to play games, i would say the wii is th best because they arent just sitting on the couch moving their thums.

omg the first night we got it we stayed up until 5am playing. . . FH recently got a perfect score on the Wii bowling and he tells EVERYONE - my favorite is the tennis though bc i run all around the room! lol

---

WOW!! I always get robbed in bowling, although i have pro status!

My favorite is the tennis too.. but i stink at backhand!

But now i like the boxing.. I always pretend to beat up FH.. so i like pretending to KO someone else
