Nintendo’s newest get-fit endeavor is a weight loss tool for the Nintendo DS, called My Weight Loss Coach. Check out this newest review from DietsInReview.com to learn if it’s a good choice for you.
BACKGROUND
Nintendo really seems to be grabbing the market on the physical activity-minded video games. On the coat tails of the popular Wii and Wii Fit, they introduce My Weight Loss Coach for the handheld Nintendo DS. While this “game” itself won’t get you in shape, it will serve as an electronic motivator- giving you the tools and guidance you need to stay focused and motivated.
My Weight Loss Coach comes with a pedometer- a tool used to track how many steps you take during a day. You sync this each day with the Nintendo DS and it will track your progress. It will also record and track your BMI, total weight lost, total distance moved and allow you to key-in other milestones as far as diet and other exercise. The program was developed by a nutritionist- so not only does it encourage weight loss, but it’s a digital partner in helping you obtain your overall health and nutrition goals.
