Something Has Crawled Up Here With Me and It Won't Stand Still

I stepped up on my new Wii Fit and it made groaning sound. Not a good sign. After establishing my profile and ability to stand up straight, it gave me my weight. Not pretty, but not nearly as bad as I was thinking.

So I worked out, earned a bunch of points and unlocked some stuff. Then I sat down and looked at the manual. Apparently if you are using it on carpet, you have to add the little feet. I had assumed they were intended for a more challenging workout.

So I added them and stepped back up. The Wii did its calculations and then proceeded to inform me that something weighing 14 pounds had crawled up on the board with me. It told me I would be better off to hold it than to let it sit on the board.

I busted up laughing. Considering that the 14 pounds is attached, I wasn't sure what to think. I ended up starting my profile over, losing all my points in the process.

So I did another 15 minutes just to have something to show for my first day.

All in all, this is a pretty awesome toy. After one day, I highly recommend it!

I told you to put your dog in the bathroom while you were working out! :( I am sorry you had to start over. But it is all good!
