(I didn't.) However, this week it was my Easter Holidays (I'm in secondary school), and in the last 5 days, playing the game daily, I've managed to lose 3 lbs! I could feel my motivation going down, but your post has shown me what it can do! Thanks! Maybe now I can lose some wieght and get away from the ominous Overweight Section and at least get into the 'at risk of being overweight' section.

I hope you keep this up. I'm currently around 2 weeks into my own daily exercise programme, without using Wii fit, but I've just ordered it and hope that I see results like the ones you saw. Thank you for writing this article. I know I’m a good 2 years late, but congratulations – this story is an inspiration and the difference is massive! I hope you keep this up.

The first thing I noticed was how much better your posture is now. I wonder which exercises you did to qualify a work-out. I think it would be more beneficial to the reader to see an average outline of which exercises you chose, like biking vs crunches...etc The mini games are quite easy and dont compare to crunches vs yoga, you know I really love this! 7 weeks is a pretty serious commitment and it made a huge difference.
