I lost 70 pounds the day I purchased but nothing since then :P.

Not really though, I don't plan on buying because its too expensive for what it is, maybe if the board is ever needed for a game I will pick it up.

the sad thing is its not a game where you want to play for fun and lose weight you have to work at it everyday if you want to see weight loss results

I just bought one last night infact. Got it from Costco. Gave it to my girlfriend and her brother because they wanted it. I played it for awhile and it does make you get up and move. However serious weight loss I doubt. It's going to take more than a couple of yoga activities and serious work. It's fun though.

I haven't lost any weight, as I'm pretty fit to beging with (I'm sitting at under 21 BMI). But I have learned a lot about my posture, as the tests show I lean a little to the left and back when I'm standing normally. This would explain a little about my back problems.

I mainly wanted wiifit for the yoga stuff and I have to say i'm not disappointed. Some of those poses make me stretch stuff i never knew was there.

Many of the strangth exercises are very similar (and work out the same muscles) as the excercises we did in the army. I can vouch for their effectiveness. Actually, I'm starting to like the wiifit versions more, because they are less stressful on the joints while still working out the same muscles.

Over all I think the program is pretty good. I think if some one really dedicated and pushed themselves with the activities then they could increase their physical fitness. The aerobic stuff is easily outgrown, however. At least for me, it was. The balance games are not the most exciting things either, but the yoga and strength sections are really good.

im not big on the strength part mainly cause i tried the pushups first and when they got to the planks i was cussing out the trainer but i love the yoga and the aerobics (mainly the basic run) cause they really give you a workout

I love WiiFit, but I'm actually trying to gain about 8 lbs so I tend to stay away from the aerobics. But the balance, strength, and yoga stuff is a great supplement to a regular workout.

I've lost some because it's fun doing the cardio.

I like lifting heavy things and then lifting heavy things again. My favorite kind of cardio is lifting heavy things at a pace where I can pretend it's cardio.

Wii Fit allows me to do cardio that's just fun and makes me want to do more. I'll spend 2 hours or more trying to beat my high scores on the cardio spots whereas if I'm on the treadmill at the gym I'll jump off the second I hear that my salt and lemon juice eyewash is ready.

I also enjoy the yoga. I don't have to worry about my core because I've always done a pretty good job of integrating Eastern/Western philosophies into my workouts

Yeah i noticed it wasnt a game just for fun after about a week or 2. I havent played it in a while since you get more exercise outside and its more fun playing football or basketball with friends than jogging in place in my living room.

I can't say I've lost weight (as I'm in pretty good shape as it is) but the Yoga portion has definatly made me sore. Sounds kinda dumb, but that stuff's harder than I thought.

Unless you play for 3h hours EVERY day i dont think its possible to lose weight with this. The money u use to buy the game plus the wii could be used for a gym membership, which if used, could REALLY make you lose weight

The quickest way to lose a few pounds with Wii Fit is to simply buy it.
