well I don't trust those things- which is why mine is still in the box- and has been since they were launched on day 1!!!

 

...............did get it out christmas for an hour or so.

 

Perhaps you've done soooooooo much that your body had turned to pure muscle? :oxD:(

 

 

ps - I have not eaten chocolate for 46 hours - not that I'm counting!

Oh - poor you - trying to lose weight is just awful isn't it.

 

Are these readings from the Wii? Not good to have a daily check really - but unavoidable I suppose.

 

The only way that I have ever managed to lose weight is with 'Weight Watchers' - couldn't attend their meetings though - apologies to all who do - just too patronising for me I'm afraid - so just bought books and followed their programme - points counting is sooo tedious though and became quite obsessed with food!

 

Good luck - I'm sure it will start to work soon!

Muscel weighs more than fat, so if you're working out you will get heavier, most rugby players I know would be on the obese scale if weight was the only thing that mattered, even Jonny Wilkinson!!

Try measuring yourself by clothes size. Or at the start of a diet that includes exercise measure the areas you are working on, thinghs, waist etc and then measure them after a few weeks.

Good luck

My Wii weighs me about 6 lb lighter than my scales and Weightwatchers, so I don't take it too seriously. On the other hand it does give some good exercises for muscles and balance, and because it is fun I go on it several times each week. I do feel that it is making a bit of a difference. Loosing weight is really hard isn't it, especially when chocolate is on everyones mind :o ?

I would take anything that made me 6lbs lighter very seriously!!!

know what you mean about not trusting the Wii to weigh you - once (when I was obviously very bored!!) i did the body test 3 times in a day and it varied loads - my BMI went up and then back down lower again! I try not to do the body test too much and not take it seriously - it can be very addictive!!

I too am struggling with my weight, I comfort eat and at the mo I am also struggling to cope with a family member with depression but hhey back to the wii...

 

We have tried to use it for weight loss when it first appeared and one wet day we discovered that it does not give the same readings twice! So now we use for exercise which it is great for and occasinal body testing!

 

Well done Jaycooks
