Wii

VS.

I've been anti-gaming system for awhile now. It mostly has to do with wanting Caeden to move and be as active as possible. I also realize in Colorado winters, being active (aside from going to the gym which, by the way, we are - woot!) is difficult.

So I was thinking about the Wii. It has Super Mario Bros. (a personal, nostalgic favorite), Monster Truck games (Caeden Koop still wants to grow up and drive one instead of being a neurosurgeon), and the Biggest Loser.

I am a treadmill rat. I love to zone out and run (OK, walk, too, until I get back into proper shape) and listen to music. I love to feel my shoulders relax and my hands loosen up as I find my rhythm. I would also like to have the feeling back on NOT feeling my body jiggle as I do this. So, to lose 10 pounds, I thought the Wii might be the answer?

Or.

Is this really my lust over Mario clouding my judgement?
