Another Wii Fit Diary
Chad Sapieha over at globeandmail.com has been recording his wii fit experiences over the past three weeks.
However, as promised last week, I did focus on Wii Fit's yoga exercises. In fact, I've unlocked them all, including the scary looking Shoulder Stand pose, which had me balancing my entire body on my shoulders and elbows (but not on the balance board—Nintendo had the good sense to keep players on the floor for this one). My Wii coach said the Shoulder Stand was supposed to help my “inner harmony.” Unfortunately, I found the pose made my neck feel as though it was about to snap, making it difficult for me to achieve any sort of accord between mind and body.
Here are his numbers for the week
Weight: 179.9 pounds (Down by 0.2 pounds this week, 2.1 pounds overall. It's not Slim-Fast, but at least I'm heading in the right direction.)
Body Mass Index (BMI): 27.27 (A drop of 0.08 this week, down 0.33 in total.)
Wii Fit Age: 29 (An increase of 7 years. Again, I've found this figure can fluctuate by decades from day to day depending on the random balance tests I am instructed to take, so it seems a somewhat useless indicator of one's fitness.).

I love reading these diaries more than I actually enjoy playing Wii Fit!
They are very inspiring though!
