Somara and I have a new weight-loss competition for the remainder of the year. Not exactly the right time to start with all the holiday parties in America. Still, I’m up to the challenge due to my competitive nature.
Here are the rules:
- Every pound lost is one point.
- Every evening I remember not to eat something after 9 PM is a quarter point. It’s harder than it sounds many nights.
- Every hour completed on the Wii Fit is a point.
I can’t recall what the conditions are for Somara outside of a point per pound. Doesn’t matter though, I think this wager is in the bag.
Today though I nailed perfect balance on the body test: I managed to distribute half of my weight on each foot at exactly 50 percent. Unfortunately, I’m still rated as Obese with a BMI over 30 (227+ pounds or 103 kg.) Most days I tend to favor my right foot (because I’m right handed) so 51-55% of my weight is over there which made this accomplishment a minor thrill after owning the Fit for 180+ days.
“Big deal!” is probably what many of you are thinking. Sure, but I dare anyone else to pull it off in at least 10 attempts. Those of you who have this “game” know how formidable it is.
My more immediate goal is to log 40 hours by New Year’s Eve and to see if the “calendar” screen changes the seasons again; currently, it “knows” it’s Fall since there are leaves blowing by.
