Hi All,
Just wanted to see how many of you are said to be over weight according to WiiFit? I was marked as over weight, which I guess I am, but to get to my ideal BMI seems rediculous.
I am 5'10" and I weigh 175 pounds. That is borderline overweight. I am not going to deny that. But the damn thing is saying to get to my ideal BMI I need to drop at least 20 pounds? What?? 5'10" at 155 is a bit rediculous. Muscle weighs twice as much as fat, so I would have to lose 30 pounds of fat and gain 10 pounds of muscle!
I read the articles about people getting called over weight by this game and didn't think anything of it. But I could see how this thing can give kids weight disorders. 155 at 5'10" doesn't seem healthy for me.
