OK, I am definitely in for this challenge! Can I use my Wii Fit/Sports Active workouts for this? I've been trying to use my Wii to help me get into better (read: some) exercise habits. The fact that the test said I was 77 also had a lot to do with it. If the Wii is not acceptable, I can do my WATP DVD.

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
