Wii Fit Platinum Challenge

[Jessica Rabbit]

Ladies we are starting on Monday, June 15, 2008

If you are participating, let me know and I can add you to the list.

You must do at least an hour of activity on the wii fit 5 days out of the week. You also must drink your recommended amount of water and begin improving your eating habits.
I know some people are hesitant to post their weight and bmi but we will just post the changes in them and our goals. Everyone will take a before pic but we won't share those until we do an update pic in a month. Everyone will also share and tips or helpful hints. I was going to start platinum at an hour and begin to work that time up to maybe an hour and a half. I'm also going to list a plan ie 30 minutes of aerobics, 5 minutes of yoga etc. But you can pick the specific exercises within the section because we unlock features at different rates. You may go above and beyond but this is the minimum and this does not include non wii fit activities. If you do anything extra, please share that.

Round 1:
10 minutes of yoga
15 minutes of strength training
25 minutes of aerobics
10 minutes of balance

Challengers:
Jessica Rabbit
ClassyND
MrsJersey
PassionFruit

[ClassyND]

I'd like to join platinum. The only thing I'm not doing is changing my eating habits. My goal is to lose a few pounds and drop my BMI into the 18 range.

Here are my stats from the other thread:

Wii Fit Stats

1st Day
Wii Fit Age: 36
BMI: 19.76

[Jessica Rabbit]

Welcome Classy. I ain't posting my bmi quite yet. :lachen:I'll post changes and my wii fit age.

Today I was 27.

[MrsJersey]

Okay, I wanted to join the Gold Challenge, but since that one isn't up yet I'll take this as a sign to step it up to the Platinum level and join with you guys. Like JR, I'm not quite ready to post the BMI just yet:lachen: but my Wii Fit age today was 29 (I'm 25 so that needs to come down). I only did 35 mins today but starting tomorrow I'll step my game up.

6/15/08- I got my age down to 24! My weight and BMI went up a tad...okay not a tad more like 2.2 lbs. But I'm blaming that more so on the fact that I had dinner about 20 mins prior and my eating habits for the day were way off from where they needed to be. However I did get all of my workout in and then some. I finally gave boxing another shot. That advanced is no joke with the footwork my husband (whose an ameteur boxer I might add) was nearly on the floor laughing at me, but hey I got my work out on and that's all that matters. Good Luck Ladies!

[MrsJersey]

Bumping...Where the Platinum Ladies at???

[PassionFruit]

I think I want to do Platinum ( cuz this is about what I do when I do it).... Problem for me is finding a spare HOUR with no interruptions...

and I also like to change up.. for example, today Im in the mood for fresh air so Im grabbing my ipod & water bottle and going for a walk... so I likely wont do 30 mins of aerobics on Wii Fit as well...
not to mention I do 30 mins of just ab work.....

I DEFINITELY aint posting my BMI and I aint exactly comfy with pics lately ( was disgusted with what I saw in my last set) ... last I checked my Wii Fit age was 32 ( Im 39) but just 2 weeks ago it was 44...


I dont know what to do....I will check out what the other challenges consist of before I make a decision

[zora]

How does the Wii calculate your age?

[Jessica Rabbit]

Ok. My wii fit age for Tuesday was 30. Few years older than me. I set a new record in my ski jump game! My bmi and weight went up a little, but it's ok.

[sydney100]

I know its wednesday, but I would love to join. I work out on my wii fit every other day and this will totally motivate me.

[sydney100]

I've just read all the Wii fit post regarding the gold, silver and platinum challenges. I think I can handle platinum. I spend about an hour on WII, unfortunately 30 minutes is spent on the mario cart:ohwell:. I am loving the hula hoops its really works my stomache muscles. Has anyone tried jogging and running on their treadmill? I find that time flies by when i'm on the treadmill doing the runs with the miis.

[Jessica Rabbit]

I haven't tried jogging with a treadmill.

I have done my balance games for the day and some of my aerobics. I am still going to do my yoga and strength training and start my aerobics over for the day.

[Ebony Majesty]

can I join?

[Jessica Rabbit]

Sure!

My wii fit age is 24 today and my weight went down 1.4 pounds!

[MrsJersey]

My age went up to 31 (my balance is just aweful), but my weight went down 1 lb and my BMI went down as well. I met my goal of losing 2 lbs that I set for myself a week and a half ago so my new goal is 2.5lbs....We'll see.

[Jessica Rabbit]

I was 28 today. Still nothing to be mad at. My goal for the first week is 3 pounds. Ambitious but I aim high!

[NClady]

Ok, ladies I want to join, but I need a partner that is going to be on me all the time. I have yahoo IM. Let me know if you want to be my partner.

Thanks,

NClady

Thank you.. Since I've been using the Wii Fit, I find myself swinging my arms more...That's what it told me that I need to do and that I carry most of my weight on my right side.:grin:
