I've heard the jokes about being offended if your husband gave you one of these for Christmas... But I was NOT offended! I was excited to try it! This was going to be my "friend"!
The "games" are fun & challenging, there is a variety of exercises, these are very "do-able", & I DO need the exercise. So after trying several different things, I decided to do some lunges... Okay, I haven't done these for months, so I thought it might be hard on my knees. Being very careful not to hurt my knees, I apparently put all the weight on my calf muscles (I walk a lot, go hiking, etc.)... because over the next 3 days, I could barely stand when I got up, then had to walk very slowly for several steps before walking normally, because those calf muscles were SCREAMING at me!Ooooh, maybe this is an enemy, not a friend... But I'll give her another chance (and I need to give her a name!)

Ah, that thing we don't want to do, but must do, that should make us feel good, but at first makes us feel terrible. Hope your legs feel better soon!
I got one, too! My brother kidded my hubby about giving me one but I was not offended either. I just have not opened it, yet! I'm so bad.
I'm inspired by your post to open it up and give it a try now.
Great gift, I would not be insulted at all!
I would love to receive a Wii! I keep telling The Mister that we need one for "Educational Purposes"...Our kids do need a PE curriculum!
I definitely think you should name her!
I have a love hate relationship with ours too. If I miss a few days, she holds me accountable and asks me where I've been. Sigh.
