A less than balanced approach

July 7th, 2008 Posted in Mundane musings

So, then. After last week’s clearing blitzlet (still lots left to do) there was enough space to finally set up the Wii Fit and have a go. Of course I prevaricated about this and didn’t actually get around to doing so until yesterday.

First impressions are favourable. Had a great time with the slalom skiing and especially the ski jumping but my first attempts at the tightrope walking we less than successful.

I also tried out a couple of yoga positions, the hula-hoops game and the step basic aerobics. Hell, I even went for a little “jog”. A very little job, but still.

Before I got started it did the necessary evil of the weigh-in and then, once it had depressed me, put me through a basic balance test.

The basic balance test isn’t your thing, is it? Do you often trip over while walking?

Cheeky bloody thing.

It did, at least, inspire me to have a healthy theme to my Big Shop today and I avoid all those lovely, fattening chocolately or fatty treats, replacing them with fruit and yoghurt. Mmmmm. Lovely. And that was before the program told me I’d lost a doubtful 4lbs between yesterday and today.

Let’s see how long this lasts, shall we?

    Okay … lessee … you posted this yesterday? Tell me, did you even switch the Wii Fit on today? ;-)

    That’s hurtful. Of course I switched it. What’s more, I even did my 30 minute session, too.

    So there.

    A 30 minute session on Wii ‘choccie consumer challenge’ doesn’t really count now, does it? ;)

    I’ve found that if I do the body test after the exercises/fun, then I lose a pound (sometimes!).
