Wii Fit and treadmilling are getting me in shape

I remember reading something about it taking 21 days for an activity to become a habit. I'm working on that. I do 30 minutes of Wii Fit yoga almost every day, as a warm-up for a treadmill session.

I remember reading something about it taking 21 days for an activity to become a habit. I'm working on that.

I do 30 minutes of Wii Fit yoga almost every day, as a warm-up for a treadmill session. Weeknights, I'll do 90 minutes on the treadmill while watching Countdown and Rachel Maddow (without commercials, each show is around 45 minutes). I'll usually do a shorter session on weekends. The treadmill is usually set at 5% incline and 3.5 to 4 MPH, though I vary the speed now and then.

Iron Chef video game coming to the Nintendo Wii and DS:

Iron Chef America: Supreme Cuisine lets players square off in Kitchen Stadium and battle through a series fast-paced and intense culinary challenges. Each victory advances players closer to a final showdown that will determine who will reign supreme as the next Iron Chef America.
I hope the bonus rounds let you battle it out with the real Iron Chefs. Give me Hiroyuki Sakai and Rokusaburo Michiba any day over these Iron Chef America guys. And don’t forget floor reporter Shinichiro Ohta shouting out ‘Fukui-san!’ every few minutes.

We absolutely will be getting this when it comes out. Allez cuisine!
