Feel the Burn!
My hubby and I decided to gather the gift cards we received for Christmas and put them towards some thing that could benefit the both of us this year and decided to get a Wii along with the Wii Fit Plus. After hearing the positive reviews from some friends and my family, we were determined. We walk into Best Buy where they have an entire Wii mountain made out of the consoles, and quickly put it in our cart…not that we had to rush or anything, they weren’t going to sell out! Shaughn spots the blue and yellow balloons tied to the end of each aisle and decided that he absolutely needs one and starts pointing, babbling, and raising his arms. As we walk towards the Wii accessories and games, away from all these balloons, Shaughn starts crying and yelling, all understandable at first, but then it gets louder. I’m trying to talk to him and show him all the other neat things we’re standing next to, which is completely at the other end of the store, and he is still pointing up crying. He did calm down and stop a few minutes later but I was so confused on what to do besides telling him “no” firmly and shortly explain, even though he does not understand, that he could not have the balloons because they belonged at the store. It worked, so that was good. I didn’t want to be the couple in the store who has that crying tantrum throwing child! Anyhow, the Wii Fit Plus is GREAT. We’ve done it yesterday and today and can literally feel our muscles aching. It is such a sensitive balance board and can feel your EVERY move, and I do mean every. It corrects your posture, works on balancing, and keeps you moving! Maybe this will finally be the one tool in our lives that can actually help us lose weight but allow us to have fun at the same time. I got nothing but high hopes. Do you have a Wii Fit or any other product to help keep you motivated while losing weight?
