I’m still here!

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

There was a comment on the previous post that had wondered if I had given up on the project.  I just want to let everyone know that I’m still here, but just haven’t had a chance to keep up with the Wii Fit work.  I had a lot of work come my way over the past couple of weeks and haven’t had much free time.

I will be resuming the project as soon as possible.  It’s good to know that there are people out there keeping up with the progress and inspired to try their own Wii Fit regimen.  Keep up the great work, everyone!

Hrmph.

So, last weekend I had a few beers, some bratwurst, a burger, and a whole lot of sitting around.

As a result, I gained a pound and a half.

This seems like as good a time as any to disclose an additional step I’m taking to lose weight.  There was a great, GREAT price for joining a Weight Watchers group at work, and I signed up.  I started yesterday.  I’ll be doing the flex plan, which means that I’m really not going to change what I eat (an original stipulation of the project), I’m just going to be quantifying my food intake with a set of numbers.

Really, this shouldn’t affect the outcome of the Wii Fit project that much, since I was already trying to watch what I ate before starting the project.  It’s like I said…  I’m just putting numbers and data to my food now.

I only had time to do the body test yesterday. I took my son swimming early in the morning for about an hour, so I got lots of activity in then.

The quick run down:

  • Weight: 275 lb.
  • BMI: 32.01
  • WFA: 29

I am progressing quite nicely.  How is Wii Fit working out for you after a couple of weeks?
