Okay, I finally broke down and bought a Nintendo Wii. Now I am addicted to the Dancing with the Stars game. I feel like a jive queen even though I cannot even get 25 points. I have managed to numb my right index finger because as a novice I cannot get it into my head that you do not need to hold onto the Wii console and nunchuck with a death grip or push the buttons like if you don’t get it right a nuclear war will start.
I say..”Ok, one more dance.” Then I score less than the time before and say, “well, just one more try.” Hence the numb finger. Is there such a thing as carpal finger?
You do much better if you get the rhythm to the music down, so even though you aren’t really dancing the jive or the mambo, you get into the rhythm of the song. If I could only get those pesky dance moves (for extra points) in. I think I am pointing my stupid console/nunchuck in the wrong direction. Who knows?
The only thing I do know is that I will get a perfect 30 on the jive before I quit. No giving up.
On another note, I have my bodybugg back on and I’m logging food.
I would be interested to see what kind of calorie burn you get with the bodybugg while playing with the Wii! Please let me know, thanks.

Cool that you bought the Wii!! Hope we can catch up soon. Glad to hear you’re back on the wagon recording your food. Keep it up!
