TRUDY:
GO GET THEM GIRL. I HOPE YOU GO BACK AND TALK TO THE MANAGER AND LET THEM KNOW THEIR SALEMAN LOST A SALE FOR THEIR BUSINESS BUT ALSO EMBARRESED YOU IN FRONT OF OTHERS. THEN, IF POSSIBLE I WOULD PURCHASE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE IF YOU CAN FIND A SALE IN OTHER STORE. MAYBE THE SALMAN WOULD BE TOLD HOW UNBUSINESS LIKE HIS COMMENTS WERE.

When I went to buy it the salesman said there was no way I could do the exercises! HMmmmm .. why did I listen to him.. I have the setup.... so I just need the program... I think it's pretty expensive... But I'm going to check it out again... Great news from all of you that are doing it. Challenging ourselves in even the smallest ways keeps us truly "alive"... no potato couches in this group! :) Have a great day..... it's beautiful here in Virginia On Tue, Jun 2, 2009 at 9:38 AM, <jharpe...@aol.com> wrote: Hi Jan, I'm glad I inspired you! :-) I was afraid at first maybe it would be a waste of money because there are many of the exercises I can't do -- like anything involving standing on one foot.But there are plenty of things I can do with it that challenge me, and there are plenty of things my kids can do that challenge them even though they're younger and more fit and able than I am. The first time I used it I could barely do ten minutes. Then one day last week I had worked up to almost half an hour. The more you do with it, the more it "unlocks" new exercises, so it doesn't become "old hat" and boring. I'm enjoying it! I hope you are, too.

Thank you, though my first time on it wasn't pretty!! We'd talked about, but after they were out the first time Frank went to get one we just "forgot" and then your message.........I'll need practice alot to get the balance test to say I'm doing OK!! jan --- On Tue, 5/26/09, jharpe...@aol.com <jharpe...@aol.com> wrote: I'm wondering if any other of the "walking wounded" have tried a Wii Fit? I just got one for Mother's Day (it's something I asked for).They place a lot of emphasis on balance, which I have trouble with. Hopefully there will be some improvement on that front! It has one exercise where you step on and off the board. Some years back I had tried low-impact step aerobics, but my knees couldn't handle the step. But the Wii board is low enough that it is no problem. So far it's pretty fun, though I am not placing well as far as scores go. But at this point I'm just trying to get some kind of movement and activity in, whether I make big scores or not. But even my younger and more active sons enjoy it. I didn't think it would be challenging enough for them, but it is.
