A less than balanced approach
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!).
