i lost 3.5 kilo's in 29 days (skipped like 10 days or so) and I still eat normal next to it.

no, its not. healthy weight loss is 1 pound every other day or so. unless you are grossy obese then staying really fat is even worse for you so it would be best to lose the weight fast, as long as you slow down later when you get to a bettter weight.
can it be used to gain weight as well?? :P

It's not the approach i'd take but this sounds like it might actually get people into regular exercise along with taking their health seriously. It might even propel lifelong lifestyle changes. How many games can attest to that? |
I lost 6.5 pounds in the last 4 days without wii fit. Just plain old exercise and eating healthy. The first 3-4 pounds come off so quickly if you start eating a lot less since you have less food in you system at one time.

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.

That would be me - I had a BMI of 29.7 (14 stone 3 lbs) when I started Wii Fit and i'm now down to 28.57 (13 stone 11 lbs) but to be fair i've only been using it every day for last 3 weeks or so.
Daren't go on it today though - last night I had 6 pints and a bag of fish and chips.
cool,i cant wait to get it to lose some weight :P
tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"
thing is it's not a quick fix - if you use it as a tool to report stats on a daily basis and you learn from them it's fantastic as a motivator and to improve your balance (not relevant in losing weight but good anyway).
I've no doubt that everyone on here is intelligent to know that but will we soon be hit by stories that Wii Fit doesn't magically lose weight and you have to implement it along with hard work?
Wii Fit = exercise program to change your life. Say good bye to gym membership. $300 per year saving there. lol.
Good to see, Wii Fit is having a very positive impact in such a short amount of time.
