My father-in-law got this for us and I use it regularly. I think it is a fun way to lose weight and stay in shape.

May I ask how long you have had wii fit and have you lost any actual weight from it? I just saw a report on the news last night that fitness experts are saying that there's no real fitness benefit. I'm not sure I can agree since it seems to be motivating some otherwise "couch potatoes" to get up and at least get some movement going again.

I worked out regularly previous to it, but had not been active for a few months due to other life things. I have used it for about 2 months now and have lost about 10lbs. It has helped me lose weight, become more flexible and tone up muscles. I would highly recommend. Plus, it is more fun that just running on the treadmill and lifting weights.

I use my Wii Fitness almost everyday. I do allow myself a day off now and then but otherwise I am very faithful and have lost weight and felt better from using it. It's fun to play the games..which is your favorite? I like practically all of them and vary everyday. I also do several jogs..I aim for burning 390 calories per session. The only thing that bothers me a little is it takes me 2 hours to get through 1 and 1/2 hour as counted on the Wii. The only exercise I like more is dancing in place. I sometimes do that on the days I skip Wii.
