I was just asked this and the truth...I have not been using it every day like I wanted to. Part of it is I have to fight for the TV with the rest of the family. Think about it. You come home from work, change into your workout clothes and go down stairs where your wife or daughter are watching TV. You change the channel and turn on the Wii fit is going to get a few arguement. Add family responsibility then it makes it even tougher. I have made my way to the gym.
However I have had parties each weekend which has not helped. My 40th birthday for starters and a party after a baptism. I'm still less then 10 pounds from my goal, but the final 10 is a bitch. however I feel like the kid who asked for something and got a fully functional knock off. In other words, I am not at my goal weight, but I do look good enough that people notice. I'll have to take that victory and press on for the rest.
I did modify an exercise I picked up. I did a side plank exercise I picked up here:

The first one should look familiar for those who own Wii Fit, but the side ones you use your elbow. I did that the first day I learned it and it does work your sides. Best one yet. However if you try to mimic the basic plank, I recomend some padding because my eblow hurt like hell afterwards.
