Wow, my blogging consistency level has plummeted! As has any other consistency... A small example: I used my wiifit for the first time in January... then waited a few days, tried it again. That darn wii. It keeps track of everything. The little voice said - Oh! It has been two weeks since you were here! - TWO weeks! Well, it SEEMED like a few days. Four... fourteen... whatever. And when I gained a pound it suggested that A) my weight loss goals would be difficult to achieve if I kept gaining weight, B) I should sign in every day, and C) Would I like to change my goals? :)
.
I need a wiifit in charge of my whole life. It would be frustrating (when it tested my bmi it said I was obese, and my little mii suddenly puffed up like a balloon! Rude.)... but I need minute by minute accountability, so it might be well worth the frustration.

"If you eat that brownie your weight loss goals will be difficult to achieve. Would you like to change your goals, or your menu?" And suddenly a table full of healthy, simple, delicious options would appear in front of me; the only thing required of me would be to point and click.
.
"The words you are about to speak will make your relationship goals much less likely to occur. Relationship success decreases by 28%. May I suggest a new phrase?" And a list of applicable, kind, loving, concise phrases would appear in front of my eyes. Point. Click.
.
"That book you are about to read will actually decrease your intelligence level by 5% and increase your gullibilty by 8%. Here are some suggestions which will improve your mind, your vocabulary, and your spirit, while also stimulating your imagination." Point. Click. Nice.
.
"That movie is poorly done. Don't waste your money. Try this one instead. Don't forget to have water instead of soda, and skip the movie theater popcorn to assist with your obesity problem. Here's a Fiber One bar." Point. Click. Wiifit, I would stand in line for days for an opportunity to purchase your WiifitPC, Portable Conscience. I would pay triple for you on eBay. I would wait a year for you to send one to the game store in my neighborhood.

The Wiifit is pretty cool, but I can see room for improvement.

I weighed myself on my Hubby's Aunt's Wiifit at the weekend - I had a BMI of 30 :( It was kinda sad
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's my bmi, too!!
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious, my sister really would like a wiifit but she is still on the fence about it all.
ReplyDeleteBut yes from the way you put it the Wii portable conscience would be much better lol
HAHAHAHA!! This post is awesome!! It would be a great editorial!! The first time I got on the wii and my mii inflated like the Pillsbury Dough Boy, I was horrified. When a toy tells you that you are fat, it is time to do some thing about it! I love watching the graph go down as I lose weight!
