I'm starting to feel uncomfortable with the daily body test.

I'm thinking I might just train each day and do a weekly weigh-in and body test.

I have had weight issues previously and this is bringing them back to the fore a bit, I never thought I'd feel that way again. It's interesting to me that even after 2 years at my healthy weight I can fall back into the "trap" so easily.

Stormstruk, I can understand that, it fluctuates all over the place and compared to normal scales it is actually a bit out. I found if I move mine around abit, it changes if I do a couple of body tests in a row.
The weight and WiiFit age should be taken only as a bit of a guide and not as gospel.

I agree, I just find it makes me focus on my weight too much instead of fitness/flexibility and then I think about my weight more often than I have been.

So I think I'll stick to weekly from now.

The weekly bodytest is most likely better as the daily does upset the headspace quiet a bit!
Exercising should be a positive experience!

I actually just popped on the site to ask if anyone was actually using Wii Fit daily. Looks like a lot of you are, this makes me feel bad because I've slacked off

I'm going to make more of an effort to do a daily work out now that I have read this! I don't know why you are all being so hard on yourself, the fact you're doing it daily is fantastic.

By the way, how long does it take you to do it everyday, and do you do all the workouts?

I do all the yoga and all the muscle ones (except the challenges) and it takes just over an hour.

I've only missed one day so far. I hit the balance board every morning around 6.

Prior to Wii-Fit I would be up and exercising at this time anyway, but now I can do some light exercise while playing video games. Pure genius Nintendo!

It is pretty bloody good, if Wii Fit doesn't get someone motivated, then I don't think anything will

...Ignoring the fact I've skipped a few days of course lol

I want this game SOOOOOO bad. Thats it I am gonna do it the hard way. CHORES [dun dun dun!]

I have been overweight when it got so ridiculous that I weighed 80kgs for a 13 year old!

I changed my eating habits and excercised alot more and I have lost about 16 kgs. I weight about 64kgs.

Now I love excercise.

Yeh and that is my life story. I want WiiFit cos I like excercise. DONE and DONE

Thanks to anyone who read all of that.

to me, it feels like a fitness nanny. If you don't use it for a few days, it trys to make you feel bad for not going on (similar to the brain training games on DS).

I much prefer the gym, but my wife seems to like it

it will be interesting to see how the wii balance board gets used in other games, considering that the wii can only communicate with one wii balance board at a time (i.e. 2 players would have to take turns instead of playing at the same time)

haha! Chobits, I'm bloody stuffed getting off that cute little board thingamajiggy!

And I'm considered underweight for my height (true but I still look goooood!)

I'm really impressed with the WiiFit. It can only get better from here. Nintendo truly have outdone themselves. I got it to be more aware of my health. I'm a smoker (patooey!) and I've cut down heaps recently but now I'm barely having any as I'm committed to my wiifit program I set myself. I can understand ppl being a little insecure about using it as it reminds them of weight issues but I really think one must take this with a grain of salt. Just a pinch. I mean it was invented to get otherwise couch potatoe gamers OFF the couch. Now how much weight would you gain playing, sitting, eating, doing nothing? A bit I'd imagine!

Then they would have a spare wii balance board if deltron_0 is correct.

the wii balance board register as 4th player control in the home menu
maybe it register another one as 3 all the need to do is send throu a update .

here are some games coming out for the board
We Ski 2008
Skate It 2008

Rayman Raving Rabbids 3

and a site just for the balance board and games

www.wiibalanceboardgames.com/

guess i was wrong
"Can you use multiple Wii Balance Boards at the same time?
No, according to the official Wii Fit site, only one Wii Board can be synchronised with the Wii console at any time."
