Here I am on a scale.

This is the start of it all…

I am by no means fat, and I am by no means OVERWEIGHT, though I am out of shape. That is a FACT! I also have small pockets of fat that I would rather be ROCK HARD MUSCLE! All this is supported by the fact that the Wii pegged me here.

As you can see by Wii’s calculation of my BMI (body mass index) I am BARELY in the normal. I mean I am RIGHT on the line between overweight and normal. How precarious!

I find that a bit suspect. As you can see by my scale it has me at 180, but the Wii said my weight was 167 (not pictured). This makes me suspect the whole BMI calculation. Anyway, from this day forth I will use both MY scale and the Wii scale to gauge my progress.

OK, new revised goal. The Wii said I should try and lower my BMI from the 24 and change to 22. Getting it to 22 means I have to drop almost 20 pounds. HOLY SHIT!?! That is WAY more than I thought I should/could/even think of doing, but that is now my goal. How long? Three months. But in this thirty day trial I am going to try and lose (drum roll) six pounds. I think I can do it.

If you think you are going to get your Wii board and just JUMP RIGHT INTO IT, you are dead wrong. The set up took me about fifteen-ish minutes.

• How heavy are your clothes?
• How tall are you?
• When were you born?
• Do you want to password protect your account so no one can see how FAT YOU ARE?

These are all some of the questions you have to answer before you can even delve into the first thing.

I am not going to get TOOO into the whole scenario of Wii Fit in this post. In upcoming posts I will focus more on each section.

And I will also focus on the trainers, the individual activities, and of course the ACCESSORIES!!!

But this time I will just say that Wii Fit kicked my ass and it will continue to kick my ass into shape… hopefully.
