Today's stats: Weight: 236.8 lbs BMI: 33.90 Wii Fit Age: 26 Today the Balance Board had me do that dratted Agility test again, raising my Wii Fit Age to 26. I only managed to get through 15 of the "levels" in it in 30 seconds and that's just not good enough, apparently. :P I've been reading, by the way, and I've heard there are some more fitness games due to come out that utilize the balance board. Like one from "The Biggest Loser" (which I've only heard about and never watched) that is supposedly due out during the holiday season.
