With my weight loss has come many a question from people that I see in my daily outings. They are genuinely shocked about the pounds I have shed. Some have asked if I am even sick. I think the most shocking thing is that they can’t believe that WiiFit is actually a part of my regimen.
Some want to think that’s the magic key, but it is and it isn’t.
See, I had to make a change. When I go out on Thursday to make dinner with friends I ate a lot. I had to change that and WiiFit helped me realize that. Staying up crazy late on Saturday night wasn’t helping either. It wasn’t so much what I was doing with WiiFit that helped me lose the weight but what it was telling me.
I’ve spoken about this before but it’s important to get to what I am actually doing with it these days.
I have been hovering around 79 kilograms as of late and my efforts have become minimum at best, but still there. But minimum these days is defined as waking up at 6:30 in the morning on weekdays and doing as much WiiFit as I can until quarter after seven. Weekends I try to at least get my daily weigh in done but sometimes I forget or am just too busy. But if I’m busy being out, and in Japan that tends to mean at least some walking or bicycling, that’s more than it used to be.
The hardest thing about WiiFit is just doing it. Just like any other exercise routine. I try to tell this to the people who are shocked about my weight loss but they don’t like to think it’s that simple. Or rather, what I say seems more complex and “WiiFit is magic.” is a simpler thing to believe. I feel better and have gotten sick a lot less often this year compared to last. Winter was the real test for this and it seems I have passed with fling colors.
Some people have complained about the number of activities within WiiFit, but if you are sticking to a 30 minute a day routine, there are more than enough for you to find something different to do every day. Some days I really, really don’t want to do it, but more often than not I am finding myself up and doing it before I even know that I am.
And that’s pretty impressive.
