I beg your pardon, Mr. Fit

For the past cou­ple of months I’ve been play­ing around with the idea of get­ting a Wii Fit.  From what I under­stood you could do “exer­cise” on the board.  I heard about hula-hooping and yoga and that was about it.  A Twit­ter friend of mine actu­ally lost so much weight on a Wii Fit that she was fea­tured in sev­eral big named magazines. 

I STILL didn’t see how a lit­tle board attached to a gam­ing sys­tem could do all that much.  So I didn’t per­sue get­ting it.

J, how­ever stum­bled across it dur­ing the Black Fri­day Mad­ness and got it for me for Christ­mas. I was actu­ally pretty excited to see what all the hub-bub was about.

What I didn’t expect was it to weigh me!!!

This Wii Fit is a hard-core, account­abil­ity machine!  Not only did it weigh me, but it also took the lib­erty of telling me just how OLD my body really was.  Oh no, it doesn’t care that I’ve only been alive for almost 37 years.  Appar­ently since I trip over my big, fat feet I have the body of a 44 year old!

Well, that stinkin’ Mr. Fit can take that 44 and shove it up his.….”

Ahem.

At any rate, when I’m not at the Y, then I will be work­ing on my Wii Fit-ism.  My favorite so far is the ski-jump, basic step dance and hula-hooping. 

(Don’t mind that booty shot.…there’s a rea­son I need Mr. Fit.)

That yoga is just a bit too calm­ing for me.  I can’t keep that stinkin’ dot in the right place.  Gonna have to work on that.

In case that in-your-face board isn’t keep­ing me account­able enough as it is, there’s a Wii Fit Mom­mies group I’ll keep track of.  Next time I place a pic­ture of my booty on the web, it’ll be tiny and cute! Dang it!

    I’d really like to get a Wii Fit to use after my baby comes in May. I think it would give me a fun way to start get­ting back in shape.

    there’s a bar in down­town New Orleans that has a Wii/Wii Fit in the place. Gal I know couldn’t under­stand why they’d have that in an upscale place. I said, give a gal three cos­mos and put her on the hula hoop, best enter­tain­ment a bar could ever have :-)

    You’re a stinkin hot­tie! I want one–I need one about 30 pounds more than you do!

    I can’t wait to get abused by very own Wii Fit! I’m truly scared about what it’s going to deem my age to be. Yikes.

    You look like a pro on it!

  5. That look on your face is CLASSIC!

    If I can ever get my hands on a Wii Fit I am SO buy­ing it! It’s #1 on our Wish List now!

    I’ve tried the hula hoop and a cou­ple of oth­ers and they are fun! But oooo — I got a stitch in my side!

    I found your blog from my hus­bands (Bryan Thomp­son) twit­ter site. Funny stuff. I love moms with a sense of humor. And I thought this was just so funny. We want a wii. And I would love a wii fit. I lost about 30lbs last year doing Weight watch­ers at home and have another 15 more to go. Any­way, this was a funny post and just had to give you some kudos.
