    Re: November WII Fit challenge?

    I think we should do it like the other challenges, basically you challenge yourself. For example, in the abs challenge, I said I could do 1000 in October.

    So, we each just give our minutes - I'll say 900 minutes, that's 30 minutes a day - which gives me some leeway. There will be days I won't do it, then there will be days that I will do more than 30. This is probably high for me - but hey - it's a challenge.

    If you haven't done an exercise challenge yet, just go check out either the abs or squat challenge for october. People just keep running totals thru-out the month. Then whoever makes their goal, gets a 'trophey' to put in their signature!

    Maybe then we could just list the little goofey things as extra 'incentive'.

    What do you think?

        I'm in! I like the idea of 900 minutes for the month. I just ordered the new Biggest Loser Wii/Wii Fit game online and the challenge will help me make good use of it!

          I'm definitely interested! Would we have to log all our minutes on the actual Wii Fit game, or any Wii Fit game? I have a Golds Gym game and EA Active that would work great for a challenge like this!

            It could just be a Wii challenge, not necessarily WiiFit.

            So, here's our current list - just copy and add the number of minutes you 'pledge' for the month:

            Avery 0/???
            Barrnone 0/900
            jmzieg82 0/???
            MellyG 0/900
            mizski 0/???
            sporty 0/???

            If you're new, just copy the list and add your name and minutes...looking forward to this challenge - my Wii was getting dusty!

              I'm going in for surgery on November 4 but I figure I can get in some minutes the end of the month. I'll revise if I can start sooner (maybe some of the balance or yoga stuff). I hope we do this again in December so I could get a full month in!

                      Hi! I want to join! I just started on our Wii last week. For the last year I've been afraid to step on it for fear of breaking it. But last week I decided I'd give it a try and it was fun. I did pull something in my back hula hooping so I'll be careful to not overdo it again, but it is fun! I have to laugh at my chubby little "Mii". When I measured my weight, the Mii plumped out and made me giggle. I can't wait to see her get skinny!

                        happy - glad you've joined us

                        I'm really excited about this challenge - and to get my Wii back out. I don't think I'll get the WiiFit Plus right now - I'm going to put it on my xmas list

                              *Grumble grumble* I have to bail on you guys. I'm sorry. I just found out my roommate sold her wii console so although I do have the game, I have no console to play it on. She said the lady that bought it promised to pick it up by Halloween so November is out for me. Blast... I am SO sorry. Maybe if I can save up enough to buy a wii console I'll be in for another month's challenge.

Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it is yours."
