    Lose weight with Wii Sports?

    http://wiinintendo.net/2007/01/15/wi...iment-results/

    For most people this is their most anticipated category. To be honest, I was genuinely surprised by my end results, so I’ll just get right to it. I lost 9lbs! Obviously this doesn’t compare to Jared and the Subway diet, but I started out at a weight that I’ve been at for the past 2 years. My weight has really never fluctuated from 180lbs. in those two years, this makes the weight loss that much more of an accomplishment for me, considering I did not change anything I ate or did. Also, this experiment took place during the holiday season, where I ate holiday dinners like I normally would and drank what I would normally would have drank. One last variable I had working against me was the winter season and not getting any outdoor exercise that I would normally would get in the warmer months. (I do have to admit it has been a mild Philly winter so far)
    Make with it what you will.

      How about putting down the controller, going outside, and trying some real sports?

            Ah, didn't know I'm on his ignore list.

            Anyhow, when it is cold outside how are you gonna enjoy exercise, might as well play video games if you enjoy it and you're going to lose weight.

              You can lift weights? You dont have to take those outside.

                I'm just saying if you enjoy it and you can lose weight it's a win-win.

                  I dont really see how you can lose weight. Maybe get some muscle but weight loss?

                    I outlined a 6 week game plan for myself, the idea being that I would continue ALL normal activity and eating habits, and simply add 30 minutes of Wii Sports to my day. For the past month and a half, I’ve stuck to these guidelines very strictly.


                    I'm guessing there are other factors than Wii Sports though.

                      This sounds like a very legitimate study.

                        They have these new things called gyms.

                          Never said you couldn't go to the gym. Just saying it might be more enjoyable to y'know be in your own home and play videogames.

                              My guess? Nope.

                              But it's possible to lose weight due to Wii Sports from what I can tell. I dont have a Wii yet, so when I do, I'll have to try it out.
