Yay, me!

I have officially lost 2 pounds since starting the Wii Fit less than 2 weeks ago (and my BMI has gone down, too). Not bad at all, considering that I don't have a use-it-every-day routine. But I think that tomorrow morning I'm going to get up 45 minutes earlier and do the Wii Fit, or Walk It Out. The Scientist is working until LAAAATE both tomorrow night and Wednesday night, so I'll probably log some more time on it then, too.

Walk It Out is a completely stupid little game, where you just walk to the beat of the music to earn points. Then you use your points to open more roads to walk on, or build things like street lamps and trees. But it's easy and fun and mindless, and today I logged nearly 2.5 miles on it, so there you are.

I just like that I'm having fun with this, and it's not something I dread. If only this had existed when I was a kid and had major Gym Class Trauma. I swear, the reason I don't do the gym as an adult is simply because I have gym class PTSD. Ugh, gym class...

In other news, this was a weekend of movies for us. On Friday we saw How to Train Your Dragon, which both of us loved. We didn't see it in 3D (though I hear it's excellent), but the 3D version will be at the Scientist's theater soon enough. Very good movie, and Toothless the dragon is the cutest thing EVER. Highly recommended.

Last night we saw Hot Tub Time Machine, which was very entertaining and silly. Not as LOL-worthy as I was hoping, but still silly fun good times. Plus, good references to Better Off Dead, Say Anything, and even Sixteen Candles. I've never seen One Crazy Summer, so I can't say if they gave a nod to that John Cusack 80s film as well.

Wait until that damn board starts nagging you, and talking about you with The Scientist behind your back (unless you have Wii Fit Plus, where you can bypass all that).

Oh yeah, it's already doing that. And it really DOES nag! "It's late. You should be in bed. Don't forget to brush your teeth." You're not my mother!

Yay for having fun with the Wii Fit (and for awesome results)! :) Entertaining exercise is the only way to go.
