I have just ordered The Biggest Loser USA. I have read reviews - some say it is great and some say not so good ..if you have it can you describe what you think of it please? Thank you for any info!!

Has anyone anything to say about The Biggest Loser USA program??? Please reply with a few lines to comment on it, if you have it, thanks!!

I like it. It gets harder with the different levels.

It has challenges to, but I very raley do them. Its well worth getting.

Maybe some of the reviews dont relaize that you can pick different levels. The easy one was not that good for me.

I have several diffent wii Exercise as I like variety.

Love EA Sports active both of them the best.

I have it now and it is a challenging workout even on Beginner setting. I used to stroll thru the routines I did on the Wii Fit Plus and EA Sports Active...but not The Biggest Loser..I find it quite a challenge. I have cut a lot down on the Fit Plus and EA Sports for now..as I have no energy left to do them so much!!

The challenge of lighting the bulbs up almost killed me

Day 4 on BL now.....

Just bought it from Amazon.co.uk.... I hope I can use it on the weekend!!! Woohoo!

Well I bought it last Sunday and it was delivered on the Wednesday from Amazon UK on free saver delivery too.

Good luck with it...I find it a hefty crank up the gears compared to Fit Plus and Ea Sports.

I manage about 35 to 40 mins...did 55 on WiiFitPlus and EAS before and I think I get a far better workout with the 40 mins on BL.

I actually just borrowed this game from my cousin today to see what it was like. It was a big, big step up for me from Wii Fit+. Even on beginner mode.

I did the recommended routine thingy and there were a few of the exercises I couldn't do yet (pushups, even on knees. I need to work on my upper body strength) but overall I was satisfied.

Have fun with it!

That is true, my point, it is a big step up from WiiFitPlus and I also can't do, won't do floor exercises as i have a hard floor, no exercise mat yet, and just not fit enough yet is probably bottom line on that!! I make custom routine avoiding floor exercises...on the subject of custom routines on TBL....can you only have the 9 exercises per saved routine, as once you fill all the spaces, it seems that's it...?

Here's my review from my blog:

Well, I mustered up enough motivation to start the biggest loser challenge. It's a lot different than the other programs I have at home (EA:SA, Wii Fit Plus).... I like it. I thought it would be a little stupid, but it turns out that it's quite a serious program. Some of it's fun, some of it's pure workout, and the extra bits and bats are alright if you're a newbie to dieting and eating healthy.
I don't think the "burned calories" they tell you on the biggest loser is correct. It told me that I burned 47 for all the stuff I did, but my heart rate monitor told me I burned 310. Big difference!

I like the fact that they concentrate on stretching, warming up and cooling down after a workout. I don't think the wii remote is that sensitive for this game, though, and I have a feeling they just do it "pro-forma." Your image is not mirrored in the fat person that is on the screen, and you're just basically supposed to follow the trainer. I like the EA:SA for mirroring ME much better.

Hi There! I have been away from the Wii for a while and just starting up. I currently own te Wii Fit and EA Sports Active. I was thinking about buying the Wii Fit Plus. However, after reading the comments in this forum, I was wondering if it is better to purchase the Biggest Loser. Please share your thoughts. Thank you!
