Wii Fit challenge!

I wasn't the only one at my office to pick up Wii Fit this weekend, so did A (only other female). We've been comparing notes about how far we've gotten, tips, etc. A and I are both similarly shaped, weigh probably quite close to the same, etc. What we've decided to do is starting July 1, we're gonna have a friendly challenge. The challenge is to lose 15 lbs - first one there is 'awarded' a $15 gift cert by the other (establishment to be determined). The challenge is to run over the summer - July 1 - Sept 1. If neither of us loses 15 lbs by Sept 1, whoever loses more will win.

I think this will really help me out, because I find it very helpful to have someone doing the same thing as I am to be accountable to. Like when SB and I had our weekly points challenge. That kicked ass.

As for the Wii Fit, I banked 45 minutes or so today, and about the same yesterday. Almost 2/3 of that was cardio - step courses (2x3 min, 1x5 min, 1x10 min free step), short run (!!!), and 2 rounds of hula hoopin'. Started off with some yoga and strength training, ended up with some balance exercises. And my god, I'm a sweaty mess by the time I'm done, so it's definitely doing SOMETHING.
