| Picko said: With a BMI of 39 any form of exercise will drastically reduce one's weight. To put this in perspective I'm 188 cm or 6'2, to have a BMI of 39 I would need to weight 140kg or 311lbs. At that weight I'd lose a significant amount of weight going for a brisk walk around the block every evening. I congratulate the man on his weight loss and hope that he continues at it. But at the end of the day the outside excercise that he speaks of will be what drives a very great majority of the weight loss. Wii Fits part to play is merely encouraging him to keep at it. It would be interesting to see where he is 6 months from now. Personally thought I'd be more interested to see how it works with someone who is overweight but not clearly obese. |
You're spot on, this is such a great media oppurtunity for Wii Fit but people are overlooking the simple fact that with a BMI of 39, losing 10lbs can be achieved through the smallest of exercise.
