It was the first bank holiday weekend in May which is nice as it means it is getting closer to my Birthday, this year I will be turning to the not so grand old age of 26. Doesn’t really mean anything bar I am getting
older but definitely not wiser. I have been playing the Wii Fit game with the Wii balance board and as I thought I had natural balance. I was slightly wrong, I lean on my heals and slightly on my left foot. I am starting to fit this but it is a slow task as you have to be constantly aware of how you are standing, but I must say the whole idea of keeping fit on this board is great.

Also this bank holiday weekend myself and Clare decided to go into Newbury and watch the crafty craft event which is held by the Newbury Round Table. The ground was it usual muddy self but the sun was shining and the crowds were out so myself and Clare had a quick look round grabbed some lunch and headed to the pub to meet up with Karen and Paul. At the end of yesterday we picked Ryan up from school having just spent 5 days in Germany.

Well I know and as my dad would and has said I am completely sad for going out at 23:30 to pick up a Wii Fit game with the balance board when it was first released at 00:00 on the 25th of April.

Now I have only played on the device for 30 minutes but from what I have done on it I must say it has alot of proteintal. Admittedily as 00:30- 01:00 my balance and general reaction time isn’t great I did quite well on some of the yoga and physical exercise tasks. The aim of wii fit is to act as an additional aid to keep you fit. It asks for your height and calculates your wieght and your BMI. so far my aim is to get my BMI down to 23.44 from 23.88 so I not to far to go but wii fit suggests my BMI being around the 22 mark.

More on Wii Fit and the balance board over the weekend when I have had a chance to play with it a little more
