I bought me a Wii Fit plus and I wanted to see if anyone wnated to do a WII Fit challenge for the month of November?

I am not sure how the challenges work and what sort of WII challenge we can do like total minutes etc...but I am open for ideas. I just want to do a challenge

Thanks!

Hi Traci ! I don't have a Wii otherwise I'd join you in a heartbeat.

I know what you mean about wanting to join a challenge. I started Atkins again mid-month and am waiting with baited breath for the November challenges to begin and help me be accountable.

Good job staying with it, and the weight loss, and being pro-active in getting what you need.

Wait - I want to do it! I do have a Wii and I know others do to. I don't have the Wii Plus yet, but would be willing to go out and get it!

Count me in!

Default Re: November Wii Fit challenge?

Traci, I think it's a great idea for a challenge. I just bought the Wii Fit Plus yesterday as it was on sale. Haven't looked at it yet. I'm curious to see how it differs from the original Wii Fit. Perhaps people with the Wii Fit (original version not the new one) could join in too.

I'm on the road right now so I can't come up with any ideas on specifics. Do you want to do something with total minutes? Anyways, I hope more people see this thread and join in...I think it would be fun.

I've moved you guys to the Exercise Challenges.

The thread should get more views here.

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!"

Thanks Georgiana!

I think 'time' would be good, just like the other challenges. You commit to a certain number of minutes for the month. We could also include mini challenges - like how far you can get down the river - or how many soccer balls you can hit....

I just took my Wii on a girls golf weekend - some of them had never seen it before. It was so much fun, I think two of my friends were going to buy one the next day!
