The Markleys Get Wii Fit

Wii are Wii newbies.

But we thought it would be fun to compete against each other to see who could get Wii-Fitter in 2009. So for the next month we will be posting weekly videos about our progress.

Yes, my husband agreed to do this with me. Actually it was his idea.

So watch us reduce our BMI scores and increase our flexibility and balance. Watch some healthy competetion between spouses. And watch us go to physical therapy because we’ve thrown out our backs.

(not really about the backs..I told you I’d post a weight loss video on my birthday!)

  6. Kristi says:

  7. Sarah Markley says:

    yes – I am 33! Chad is 44…ha. That might be another aspect to our competition, methinks.

  8. Melissa says:

    What does the winner get?

  10. Sarah Markley says:

    We haven’t figured out what we will “win” yet – any suggesstions?

  11. Linda Z says:

    Happy Birthday! May God bless you and keep you as you seek faithfully after Him and the abundant life that He gives!

    Is Chad really 44?? He does not look 44!

  12. Sarah Markley says:

    oh no, chad isn’t really 44 – that is just his “wii fit” age. Ha!! He is really 34 like me.

  13. MCC says:

    I would call you both NewWiiweds.

  14. Kim says:

    First of all…Happy Birthday Sarah!

    Second of all…good for you guys! I know you’ve been on this weight loss journey for the last part of 2008 Sarah. I think the Wii Fit is an exciting way to “jazz” up the routine. We’ve considered getting the Wii fit, but we haven’t …wanna know why?…I don’t want my 12 year old son to get in program and see my weight or BMI. I know…I’m a dork. Can others see your personal info once you enter it into your profile on Wii fit?????

    Anyway – good luck to you both. I very much look forward to the video updates. You two crack me up!

    Happy New Year!!!
