This is great news, especially for those who had been highly suspicious as to whether or not the Wii Fit was just for a laugh when it was first released. The man featured below took the experiment on himself and decided to play the Wii Fit for a continuous 45-day period to see whether he would loose any weight. In the end, as you can probably see, he’s lost quite a substantial amount -7 kgs to be precise and by the looks of it, also gained a vague six pack!? So for those kids whose parents didn’t buy them a Wii Fit just because they thought it would help you shed your weight, go and tell them there’s now living prove!
But at the end of the day, I suppose if you do enough exercise consistently, you’re bound to loose weight, I think the role of the Wii Fit here is that it just gives you enough motivation to actually do the exercise!

I never doubted that the Wii Fit would work, it just always seemed so incredibly boring to me. I’d rather go outside and just walk a mile or two and have a lot of fun doing it rather then imaginary-hula-hoop.
Still, I’m glad it worked for him – it looks like it worked well!
This one is unbeleivable. I too made fun of this Wi-Fit but this live example has inspired me to buy one for me indeed! Its amazing. Nintendo has been phenomenol indeed!Thanks a lot.
To be fair, Wii Boxing already requires enough exertion.
Lol! Good one!
Fresh air is much better…clears your mind.
I like the wii fit because it makes it fun to excercise. You actually forget that you are excercising, you are really just having fun and you loose pounds as a bonus.
I like the yoga game best!

Nintendo Wii Fit is an excellent for all age group. It made my exercise so easy with full of fun.
I think the Wii series, both the active Wii and fit Wii are just passing trends, still they have a greater chance to stand the test of time because they're not just fitness machines, they're also great toys! I know lots of people who gave up using legal steroids and going to the gym regularly because their Wii fit gave them just enough workout.
