I like video games. I always have since I was a little kid. I'm a "gamer" as they call us. But it's not something that I let take over my day. I still lead a very busy life, work, school, awesome girlfriend. So it's definitely not holding me back.

Now that I've said that, I'm absolutely dying for a Kinect for xbox360. Not sure if any of you are familiar with it, but it takes the motion capture gaming of a Wii and takes it to next level. No controller at all. The system runs off a camera that knows your voice and body movements. You move through screens and games just by moving your body. It's uber cool (and perhaps the first step that Skynet and the Terminator story being very possible; but that's another story). No only does it have the cool factor, but they have made lots of fitness related games. Just getting up and moving around through normal games gets you moving, burning calories, etc. So it would make sense that it would be a good supplement to a focused diet and current weight loss activity. I've been eyeing this thing for months and I finally told myself that I'd get one before the summer is over.

Since I joined CK, the program really stresses on setting goals for yourself etc. So that I wouldn't feel guilty I made a goal that I needed to lose 10 more pounds and then I'd go buy a kinect to aid in the weight loss (and have the cool factor at home). Now I find myself at 5 pounds away and I'm home thinking about how cool it would be to get now since I ACTUALLY have some FREE time this weekend. But alas, I'm fighting all of the temptations that I have in my head and holding on for that weight loss goal (....but if I bought it this weekend I'll make the goal faster )

Filled with temptation.
