Wii Fit Plus: One week report

We got started with our Wii Fit Plus on Tuesday, December 30, 2009. Our friends came over for dinner and to help us get started. They're the ones who introduced us to the Wii Fit about a year or so ago.

I think it's funny that the balance board says "OH!" whenever you step on it! I'm hoping some day when I'm much lighter it won't groan under my weight! I don't think that will happen because it even does it to my very thin friend.

So far I'm having a lot of fun just exploring all of the different activities the Wii Fit Plus offers. According to the tests, I need to seriously work on my balance. Once I've tried all the "games," I'll start putting a routine together. Right now I'm just enjoying testing the waters and burning calories without actually feeling like I'm exercising!

As for my diet, I've been within my target range every day that I've fully tracked so far. I do need to work on my water consumption, though.
