Can't Get to The Gym: Bring It To You, Let Virtual Fitness Solve Your Weight Loss Problems

If you are like me it always seem that there is not enough hours in the day to do everything that needs to be done and still get to the gym, Well with all the changing technology the gym can come to you. I remember watching my mother with all this bulky equitment at our house that she would use when she couldn't fit into a favorite pair of jeans.

Today we do not have to be concerned about gym memberships and bulky equiptment. With the invention of the Nintendo Wii system; Wii Fit and Wii Active can aid in your weight loss or your body maintence. These game system are so advance they even help motivate you by telling you that you are doing a good job.

After I gave birth to my last child, I wanted to lose and maintain my weight, however I set my mind on getting out of the house three times a week and once school started and the kids begin to have piano and dance lessons, I was not able to get out of the house like I needed to and I got discouraged. My husband went out and purchased the Nintendo Wii system as my solution. I was hesitant at first and refused to use the game. "How can a video game help me lose weight?", I thought . One day after stepping on the scale and realizing that I had gained nine pounds because of my protest to use the Wii Fit and indulging in a bad Krispy Kreme habit. I turned on the game and began my work out.

I started my consistent workout using the Wii game system one week ago and I lost 4 pounds. I realized that I do not have to go to the gym and I do not need bulky equiptment around my house all I need is deligence and my nifty Wii controller and I can sweat and lose as much weight as I want in the privacy of my own home. TRY IT!
