i dunno, but exercise is basically ancillary to dietary habit changes when it comes to weight loss and weight management. eat healthier and restrict your caloric intake so that you maintain a net caloric deficit over time and you will lose weight without even having to exercise (but you should still exercise because it has more health benefits than just weight loss).

what are your diets like right now? try doing 2 meals a day. drink coffee or tea with minimal additives in the morning and in between meals to stave off hunger. load up on lean proteins, fiber, complex carbs, healthy fats, etc. eat stuff like steel cut oats with fruit and nuts and/or scrambled eggs with veggies and lean meats for breakfast, and stuff like grilled chicken, black beans, brown rice, quinoa, mixed veggies and mashed avocado for dinner. try to do this at least 3-4 times a week, but don't outright stop eating things that you love to eat or you will get burned out. just try to minimize them if they aren't very healthy. eat them less frequently and eat smaller portions when you do.

dont worry, we're dieting too. we've both done weight loss diets in the past, we've just hit kind of a plateau so we're trying to change things up.

Im pretty damn out of shape, so it completely killed me the first few days. It seems pretty varied so far. The only real issue with the RPG part is some of the moves are pretty broken so I have found myself focusing on a couple moves too much.

I watched a few videos of gym personal trainers trying out Ring Fit Adventures. They were all impressed and said it's a good, effective workout that teaches you proper technique.

But like others have said, a good diet is the other half to lose weight.

It's surprisingly really good as an exercise routine.

When I don't feel like going to the gym, the game is an extremely good compromise as I don't have to get out.

thanks guys. just ordered it!

It's actually a pretty fun game and like others have said, it's a real good workout as long as you don't set it to be too easy. Oddly, my two kids love it too and always ask me if they can play "that exercise game".

It's probably meant for all ages.
