I've been faithfully Wii Fitting for 70 days now. I've only missed three days when we were away from home (yes, I was tempted to bring my Wii and Wii Fit with me, but then thought that I'm not that crazy).
Overall, I'm still holding around 5-7 pounds lost. I had two straight days of a BMI under 24 today and yesterday. Of course, that isn't all just Wii Fit. My routine recently has been 30-40 minutes of Wii Fit (mostly aerobics and yoga) and 20-30 minutes of exercise DVD. The exercise DVDs are good, intense cardio aerobics. I'm trying to settle into a good, approximately 1 hour routine that I'll be able to maintain once school starts again. (I have this secret hope that the weight loss will improve once school gets back underway... I've got to be burning calories when I'm walking around lecturing, right?).
Honestly though the weightloss isn't as important as just feeling more fit and healthy. The Wii Fit as definitely inspired me to get up off the couch. I feel more flexible and am more conscious of my posture.
The thing that makes me the most proud is that I can not only touch my toes (with straight legs, while standing), I can now place my palms flat against the floor! Woohoo!

I am on day 4 of my Wii Fit journey. It certainly does inspire one to get off the couch. Which is what I desperately needed.
Congrats on your progress!
