I think when I found out I was over 200 that was my wake up call and decided to start working out a lot, problem was that it is hard for me to get into a pattern and keep it up. I'll be Gung Ho about something for like 2 weeks and usually push myself way to hard, then just stop. So when I got the Wii, I just did a bundle with the Wii fit. Only cost me 250, where as it would have been 300 in the store. So far the only thing the Wii fit has done has increased my endurance.
Thing is 212 isn't me like comic book guy fat, it's really not that bad. I just don't want to weigh more then 200lbs unless it is all muscle.
