FOOD said: I do agree about the Wii Fit stuff. It simply isn't enough to make you lose weight efficiently. You'd have to go at it for hours on top of hours to burn a few calories. Go out and jog or something. Other than that, what kind of pansy gets injured by a Wii? Seriously? Weak people these days. |
That's not true at all. Have you even used it?
I have, and I lost 12 pounds over the course of 8 weeks. It didn't take "hours and hours", but an hour every other day. I have freinds and family who use it regularly too, and they have lost weight, without "hours and hours" of time spent on it.
It's just an exercise supplement. Doing the Super Hula hoop alone will burn a ton of calories, FAST. Maybe you don't exercise, or watch calories, but you can burn calories without "hours and hours" of work.

But like I said, it's still not efficient enough. With the right diet and a good jog 6 days a week I could lose about 25 pounds in 8 weeks. I'd say even more, because I have done more, but that's really a minimum number I would bet.

Twenty-five pounds in eight weeks?
I'm not a doctor, but I was told by one that the safe rate at which to lose weight (in terms of cardiovascular health) was a rate of about a pound a week, taking into account daily variations in weight. Doesn't losing more than three a week seem, uh, extreme?
