    Only done about 25 mins tonight, my Wii board still isn't right and its not the batteries so I dont know what to do. Might just change the batteries anyway.

    What is wrong with your board? I don't think mine is working correctly hence the change of batteries.

    Well I have survived another day on the wii fit... i have just finished for today and I have done 1 hour 3 minutes today in total... am so pleased!!

    So thankful to all of you on this thread... without this thread and you all on here, I know I wouldn't have done it... little wii fit board would still have been tucked behind the sofa!! I feel so much better for it and I only really started on Wednesday!!

    Penguin83 - I hadn't even thought of taking measurements!! thanks for that reminder... will do some!

    TeenieD - I haven't tried the boxing yet, but will do.... kind of waiting till my little ones are at nursery all day on monday so I can try all the new things out.. the aerobics, yoga etc... and also my EA Active which I have been dying to try... bit impossible to do with two under 3's around me.. although my 16 month old had me in hysterics earlier copying me do the hula!! :D

    Dustykitten - well done for bypassing the wine! I must admit, I do have a glass of red at the moment! :o Mind you, I used to drink because the day had a 'y' in it... tonight I am having one cause it's Friday and it's the weekend!

    Morocha - well done too!! I am loving it too -it's great isn't it!!!


    OH is taking us all shopping in Burton tomorrow so I need to be up early so I won't be having much more! he insists we are there for 9am!! :eek: :eek:

    Love to everyone!! we are all doing so well aren't we!! :T :T

    It keeps losing connection, it is so annoying I did change the batteries when if first happened but it hasn't really helped. The bit where the batteries go in is quite loose so I'm not sure if they pop out slightly-my sister found as site that said it is a common problem (it happened to hers to) and we have put cardbord on top of the batteries to try and make it a tighter fit.

    help!!! i am so disappointed with the wii fit, either i am missing something or i have a very low boredom threshold. it just seems to be a series of tasters (tests) i have done 30mins tonight and yes my scores are improving but i'm not breakin sweat. think i will have to go back to the wii sports that was much more energetic. unless a wii veteran can tell me where i am going wrong.

    besides that, i have had a blow out and my bmi/weight have increased, which was a good warning as i dont think any of use realise just how much a couple of bars of chocolate weigh!!

    I would really recommend EA Sports Active - you REALLY feel you are exercising - I am currently going through the 30 day challenge and different workouts every day

    Charly - I'm only doing the balancing games at the moment as that is what I'm working at first. Have you tried the aerobic, step ones? I didn't get on with the Yoga ones (I'm a pilates girl).

    hiya dusty, yes i have been through the disc, i think its just to bitty for me, i know a little and often works and i can feel the burn in my bum its just my brain thats numb. i am watching lots of active sports on ebay, its just a case of grabbing a bargain priced one.

    has anyone tried the jillan whatshername game, (see numb brain) so does the biggest loser on sky tv and has a wii game too.

    i will go back to my boxing and tennis for the weekend
