Yes, now I remember one of the reasons why I was annoyed with the Wii Fit. The constant little snarky remarks from......a.....video game.
So the Wii Fit Plus informed me that I haven't used it in 217 days. Did the little voice inside that console thought maybe I'll be ashamed, embarrassed perhaps? Well, I was not.
I stepped on the balance board and I ignored the little "OOOH" noise it made while checking my weight and then it happened. The little voice announced (I felt a bit of disappointment in it's tiny voice)that I lost 19 pounds since it last saw me....boo hooo....who's laughing now you little evil machine.
The little voice tried to have it's last word and it did say:"I see you reached your goal, well better late then never". I am not kidding you, that's what it said.
The gloves were off. Little voice asked me to set another weight loss goal so I put 2lbs in 2 weeks just to mess with it.
Then I was given crap for setting my goals too low and maybe next time I should set better goals and try harder.
Next step was my body age test and I am.....wait for it.....wait for it....."31". 9 years younger then my real age....WOO HOO.
Do you know what that little voice said after my age test was done and I was all proud of myself?
"It looks like your body is 9 years younger then your real age.So it is in still pretty good shape".
PRETTY GOOD SHAPE my "bleep". For what I've been through it's in phenomenal shape you little evil voice.
I tried to ignore the remark for the sake of our "new" relationship.
In order to stop the insanity I pressed the MUTE button on my TV and I plugged in my iPod.
From now on I will use the visual only. Sounds like good idea to me.
To sum it up for you. Yes, I am weird and I do have heated arguments with my Wii Fit Plus. However, I do love the little machine and I have fun using it.Besides I think my virtual yoga trainer is hitting on me...wink,wink.
Just to let you know I am having a GIVEWAY on my Guide For Busy Moms site.

We have Wii but not the Wii Fit and I've really been wanting to try it! Problem is I can't tear the hubby and son off Mario Kart for five minutes!
It really says those things? Crazy Wii fit.
good for YOU for working out tho.
I'd with you and MUTE the sucker. Jeez.
I guess I will be grateful for my silent treadmill this week.
Take care! See ya Monday!
I would love to exercise to the Wii or to an awesome exercise video I have. But there is only so much teasing I can take from the kids.
The snarky comments is why I haven't gotten on my Wii Fit in a while. I'm working up to brave the humiliation.
Thanks for following. I'm following you.
I need a virtual man to hit on me...you know, for when hubs is at work...hehe!
Happy #FF. Thanks for stopping by my blog and following.
and I'm a SITSta too!
I'm afraid to step on my Wii Fit. It's been about that long since I was on mine, too, only I've GAINED weight. I do now want to see my Mii get all poofed otu.
I like the idea of the IPOD and visual. That board is evil and always pushing you...I'm sick of it but can't stay off it cause I am feeling the results in my clothes.
You go girl!!! on the weight lost.
It said '9 years younger then your real age?' Gotta love that machine. I need that :)
HAHA! that is too funny! i haven't even stepped on the wii yet for fear of that very thing...it will call me out!
i loved your post today!
This was so funny to read!!
I've been thinking about getting the Wii Plus, but do I have to get the Wii Fit first?
ANd how do you like it???
Oh..and following ya now!
I've been avoiding my Wii fit and that darn SCALE cleverly disguised as a "balance board". :)
Hey,

I think I have to have to have one of those! I'm not looking forward to the attitude but the RESULTS!!!
Thank you for visiting earlier. Happy Friday - following back now. Have a great weekend!
if I climbed on the Wii thingy it would hollar "OVERLOAD! OVERLOAD! Please step off!"....and then I would get pissed and sell it on Craigslist for $20. See how clever I am at avoiding, conflict, strife, and money loss in my life??.... :)
OMG that is amazing. It's lucky it didn't find itself flying out a window. Too funny.
I'm a FF.
Following through Friday follow. I look forward to coming back to visit your blog.
Don't you wish we could mute everything in life that annoys us?
Good post and congratulations on your weight loss -- that's quite an accomplishment and no easy task, I know.
Hope you're little guy is doing better....
Peace and serenity,

Thanks for making me laugh! I don't have a Wii so it was nice hearing about the little machine and talking back to you! Good job on losing weight! Have a great weekend!
Stopping by to say hi and follow :D
Haha I haven't used my Wii Fit in over 2 weeks and I am scared to turn it on. I know it is going to yell at me! HA! It is a game Angela A GAME! (maybe it is just my excuse to not do it! :-D)
I like the ipod idea! (oh and I totally picked the guy trainer too, but only because I didn't want some skinny chick trying to encourage me to keep going, I'd probably get mad at her and let her have it!)
LOL about the Wii Fit! We just got it a couple of weeks ago but have only used it once--I'm going to try it tonight to see what it says :) Thanks for stopping by my blog for Follow Friday! I'm following you now :) Hope you're having a great weekend!
I wish the Wii Fit had FF so you didn't have to sit there and listen to the intro and go through the whole thing about how many days it's been since you last did the workout, etc. It's so annoying!
My kids think it's funny when they're playing a game on it and then I play a game with their Mii and the little thing says "your weight has changed" or something like that.
I have a love/hate relationship with my WiiFit for those very reasons. Plus I hate the obnoxious pot belly on my Mii.
Hi Ms Bibi, now following you back from the Follow Me club. I got my Wii Fit out of the box for the first time yesterday. According to Wii Fit I'm obese and my Wii Fit age is 6 years older than my actual age, booo hoooo!!! Looks like I have my work cut out for me :). Looking forward to reading more of your blog...Nic
Bahaha! I so need this Wii Fit Plus. I would love to hear it talk to me like that. What can I say? I'm a glutton for punishment.
Congrats on your weight loss and your "pretty good shape"!
everyone and there momma has a wii fit but me! SADS. I need one.
