Blogger loses weight on the Wii

Yep, it’s another one of those Wii weight loss stories, but this time around, its about 27 year-old Iowa-resident and blogger J. R. Cook. Going through his 80-pound Wii weight loss plan and documenting it on his own blog, he has brought himself to international fame, forcing his site to shut down, simply because it reeled in almost 11,000 hits in just one day.

After a month, he had already lost 11 pounds and began to observe a healthier eating habit, just by playing tennis, boxing, and bowling on the Nintendo Wii with Wii Sports. Now reported even in the local and national news, Cook still continues to inspire people to purchase a Wii and go about playing games for a healthier frame and bodily function.

This new lifestyle, known by many as exergaming, is such an amazing phenomenon that even health and sports organizations are eyeing the Wii to provide that lifestyle to usually unhealthy gamers. And since the Nintendo Wii caters to men and women, old and young, and even the former non-gamers, the Wii will probably make it’s stand against competition as the console for the new generation.
