The stores here just don't have them in stock - so he was happy to find one, albeit in New York, lol. He's trying it out right now and is already like - wow, this is hard! It's really neat and I think we're going to get a lot of use out of it as a family. Alan's Wii Fit age is 46 and I have to say that REALLY suprises me. He works out often and his BMI is pretty average.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I'm really scared now to see what my Wii Fit age will be. I wanna say maybe 145? lol ... Ugh .... I will let the boys play with the Fit now, but I get it later. I'm dying to try it out! Aww, lol .. he says &amp;quot;I don't like that score&amp;quot; so he's running the initial body test again. I don't blame him - he works hard on his body and like I said it REALLY suprises me that his Wii Fit Age was so high. I just realized that he's gonna kill me when he realizes that I've posted all this.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update: &lt;/strong&gt;His new &amp;quot;age&amp;quot; is 37. Still a little high, but better. He took off his sweat shirt ... lol&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Another:&lt;/strong&gt; Xander is now getting measured, lol. We must've screwed up his height - because it's reading really high. I'm going to have to look into that.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yet Another:&lt;/strong&gt; My &amp;quot;age&amp;quot; is 29 .. but I'm WAY obese - my BMI is around 38.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6379045675594738431-8766976611990606705?l=hotmamainthemaking.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hotmamainthemaking.blogspot.com/feeds/8766976611990606705/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://hotmamainthemaking.blogspot.com/2009/01/wii-fit.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6379045675594738431/posts/default/8766976611990606705'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6379045675594738431/posts/default/8766976611990606705'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hotmamainthemaking.blogspot.com/2009/01/wii-fit.html' title='Wii FIT'/><author><name>Christine B</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05100542347901509273</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_zdMXVFx6el8/R9L8Y3rN5EI/AAAAAAAAAA0/D5h2_j25uHY/S220/DSC02154.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6379045675594738431.post-907567635288515707</id><published>2009-01-03T15:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-03T15:35:13.400-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='diet'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thinspiration'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='healthy celebrity'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thrift store finds'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fergie'/><title type='text'>Salads &amp; Thrift Store Ellipticals</title><content type='html'>*I* found a nice (folding!) Elliptical Machine at the Salvation Army today! It was only $60 so I bought it. I just have to figure out when the heck I'm going to work out - most likely evenings (that's the only time I have really). I've got an iPod all ready with some kickass Britney music loaded (gotta make my "workout" playlists again!). I need to lube the Elliptical a little though - hello Squeaky! It also needs a little tightening - but I think hubby will handle all that. He won't admit it - but I think he'd be happy if I kept to my New Years resolution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For lunch at the mall I had a Grilled Chicken Bacon (!) Ranch salad at McDonalds. I had a bottle of water to drink and I did NOT steal ANY of the boys' french fries!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For dinner I am having a small (350 cals) pot pie and some carrot sticks I believe. One salad is enough for the day. For drink I am having iced green tea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to locate my "Best Life Diet" book again - I think it's upstairs. I also bought the People "Half Their Size" issue which always gets me going. I think I will also post photos of "thinspirational" HEALTHY people. I have a hard time with diets sometimes - I tend to slip back into my old 'eating disorder' ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ice chips - while they have zero calories - are not my friends! &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;(keep telling yourself that Christine!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zdMXVFx6el8/SV_1nzQGo1I/AAAAAAAAABY/RYbVrGiz804/s1600-h/fergie_narrowweb__300x4380.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 219px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zdMXVFx6el8/SV_1nzQGo1I/AAAAAAAAABY/RYbVrGiz804/s320/fergie_narrowweb__300x4380.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287214551677707090" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Fergie&lt;/span&gt; is my "Thinspiration" today.
