Imaginary word. Real weight loss.
I met Travis Pizel of Our Journey to Zero at FinCon11 during a speed networking session the Friday night of the conference. During that brief meeting, I had no idea Travis was such a colorful writer. In checking out his site I saw that he is on a quest to have Wii Fit stop calling … Read more
My wife bought Wii Fit Plus at Costco earlier this week. I think she bought it to encourage me some more. I’ve been pretty good about watching what I eat very carefully and exercising for at least a half-hour each night on the Wii. I talked about some of the Wii Fit Plus features over … Read more
Three nights in a row with 30 minutes or more logged in on Wii Fit … better than the past few months anyway. Mixed in a little bit of yoga — Sun Salutation and Half Moon baby! — as well as an in-place run around the happy island. Just about missed completing the tilt-the-board game. … Read more
Work is pretty evil as far as candy goes. I don’t have to look very far for free, bottomless supplies of sweets. There are at least three places — no, make that four — at work that I can pick up some Sourheads®, some bite-sized chocolate bars, Twizzlers®, whatever. Forget the healthy stuff on my … Read more
And it didn’t even make a snide comment at me! Probably was speechless because it thought I was dead. Thirty-one minutes of Wiixercise: 11 minutes of Hula-Hoop® (no, there’s no video), 13 minutes of rhythmic boxing, a couple games of soccer ball heading, one round of table tilting the balls down the holes, and one … Read more
I just about scared the collar off of one of my dogs when I yelled "YEEEAAAHHHHH!" at the top of my lungs, though. Five hundred fifty-five points on beginner level. The advanced level is still eating me for lunch. I cracked 300 points once and most of my other tries were in the low 200s … Read more
I’ve been a slacker on the pushups but I’ve been keeping on with Wii Fit, mainly with the aerobic workouts. I enjoy the Basic Run Island Lap. It doesn’t use the Wii Balance Board but it does use the Wii remote: just hold it or stick it in your pocket and it registers your steps … Read more
I just crossed the 20-hour mark in Fit Credits on Wii Fit. My Fit Bank got an upgrade to silver. It’s all shiny and stuff. Tonight I put over an hour on Wii Fit because my wife found out how to take different routes on the Island Lap run. We had wanted to find the … Read more
She works me hard! During dinner tonight she asked me to “do boxing” on Wii Fit. This is the Rhythm Boxing cardio workout. She really likes the fast punching at the end, and informs me that I’m “going to go fast later.” Then, she wanted me to run the Island Lap. Ten minutes of jogging. … Read more
Tonight I passed the ten-hour mark on Wii Fit and my “Fit Bank” got a bronze-color upgrade along with a brief fanfare. These little touches are nice and remind me that I’m sticking to this pretty well. If you don’t have a clue what I’m talking about, here it is in a nutshell. The Fit … Read more
