After a Intestine and Organ Yakiniku tabehodai yakiniku on Friday (think all you can eat Korean BBQ) followed by Liz's nomi-tabe hodai (All you can eat and drink) on Saturday, I felt fat(ter). Did I run it off? No. Am I cutting back? Hell no. What did I do?

I bought Wii Fit.

I don't exactly remember why I didn't buy it when it first came out 'cause I can't help but throw my money at crazy shit, but I fixed that on Sunday. Now, I don't have any delusions of Wii Fit making me into a buff guy, but I thought it'd be interesting and I've always wanted to try out yoga. But the scary thing is...

I really like Wii Fit.

At least I'm liking it while the games are still fresh. First thing the game has you do is plug in your stats like age and height, then it weighs you and tells you your BMI. It also tests your balance and suggests you get into a better standing position to even out your weight better. After it changes your Mii into a more weight appropriate version of you (the game took my lean Geoff mii and made him a pudgy shorter eerily familiar version of me). After, you tell the game how much you want to weigh and in how much time and the game starts to chart your progress.

I was surprised that the game is actually looking at all these things for me (everyday), where I was expecting a bit more of a bare-bones production. Anyways, There are 5 categories of activities with pretty good variety among them. After playing for an hour, I have to say it was a pretty good workout. I wasn't sweating profusely, but I had had a full body workout that was fun. I already want to by Wii Fit for my mum because I think it'd be the perfect compliment to her fitness program.

To summarize, Wii Fit won't topple DDR as the king of workout games, but it's amazing as a workout supplement. It'll track your progress, vary up your workouts and provide feedback. Also, I see it being PERFECT for the older folks
