It has a pedometer and after walking you can upload your steps into the DS game. I have not used My Weight Loss Coach enough to rave about it. It appears to be a very good coaching tool for weight loss.
the food items are not as diverse or inclusive of everyday foods you would eat like there is no oatmeal listed. but the challenges are fun and I like the enthusiasm of the character.
I think with a technology tweek this could be a great product. although I wish it would allow me to go and update days I missed due to my work schedule sometimes I am late inputting my information and there is no way to get credit for a day once the 24hrs have past.
this product is fun however it was not what I was expecting. I may have to try the Nintendo DS Personal walker game, although that would be to waste money buying a somewhat identical product.
I don't know if I would recommend a buy on this one. the pedometer is kind of bulky and shaky, I don't think always accurate but the concept is nice.
there should be a way to add foods to a databank and have the DS to analyze them from the web to get the nutrition count and so on.
I recommend this game for anyone looking to loose 10-20 vanity pounds for as a start to a happier and healthier lifestyle. With the daily objectives, you really find yourself pushing foward to reach each goal and to achieve a higher score then the day before. I personaly accompany this game with Weight Watchers and since I purchased this game back in early May 2009, I've already lost 10 pounds. I purchased this game to assist in motivating me toward a healthier lifestyle and it works. :) Through daily challenges, eating tips and motivational coaching, My Weight Loss Coach is a great addition to daily exercise and diet. THe energetic animations and perky personality of the game's mascot help to motivate you into living a healither life. THe pedometer is great becuase it allows to you see how many steps you take just walking around your house on a daily basis.
But I lost my pedometer (which I really loved) and wanted to see about getting a replacement so I contacted the makers of the game, UBI, and they were not helpful at all--tryed asking them twice about a replacement pedometer and they never really answered my question so I gave up. I really enjoyed this game, Since I'm retired I had plently of time to enjoy my walking and doing weight loss tips that the game gave me.
And it's so fun to use.I recommend this program to anyone who wants to try to lose weight. It give you workout goals, challenges that you choose, keeps track of what you eat, and other things. My Weight Loss Coach is a great program to use. It's so encouraging and positive.
