The Official Wii Fit Progress Thread of Skinny Americans

This thread is for posting Wii Fit Stats and Progress only!

For general discussion on Wii Fit and the Wii Balance Board, please post in the "Fat Americans" thread:
http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=529585

Of course, you can comment on other member's progress, offer some suggestions and such, but let's try to keep the general discussions somewhat separated if possible.

First of all, we'll need to agree on what to track. I think a basic dump of the Wii Fit stats, your start date and your goal should be posted first. Then, you could then periodically post updated stats (including the original stats for comparison).

Name: PixyJunket / Leroy

Start Date: 05/22/2008
Goal: 15 lbs.

BMI: 26.29
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 163.5 lbs.
Actual Age: 29
Wii Fit Age: 44


An updated status report could look like this:

Start Date: 05/22/2008
BMI: 26.29
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 163.5 lbs.
Actual Age: 29
Wii Fit Age: 44

Current Date: 06/05/2008
BMI: 25.52
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 158.0 lbs.
Actual Age: 29
Wii Fit Age: 41
Comments? Suggestions? Go?

anyone else compare their wii fit results with a real scale?
i just posted this in the other wii fit thread

so.. i see the wii fit scale isnt very accurate
it had me down 4.4lbs.. i weighed on a real scale yesterday around the same time i played, and again today at the same time i played.. real weight diff was -0.8

big difference (not to mention being 4-6 lbs lower than my real scale)
i wasnt surprised for it to be a bi off.. but thats more than just a little
