Although Wii Fit has been the big hitter for exergaming this year, it may have a new companion to help you tackle those unwanted pounds. My Weight Loss Coach for your DS, is like a personal trainer and nutritionist, all packed into your tiny mobile gamer. With personal profiles that allow you to track your fitness goals, record your daily food intake and exercise, it's a sure fire way that you will stay involved in your fitness, since it's way more fun on the DS. Even Tony Key from Ubisoft thinks so:

“The game creates customized coaching sessions based on skill level, and, for the first time on DS, includes a pedometer. My Weight Loss Coach not only allows users to take control of their physical well-being, but it does so in a fun and engaging manner.”

I mean, how many times have you signed up for an online fitness tracker, only to give it up a few weeks in? At least on your DS, you can be anywhere, and at anytime record your data to keep yourself on track. Find out what else comes with My Weight Loss Coach when you read more

My Weight Loss Coach even comes with a pedometer for you to wear and track your daily steps (Fit says we're aiming for 12,000 here). Then at the end of the day or week, connect to your DS to record your stats. Plus with an included food journal, you can achieve the whole burn-more-cals-than-we-take-in thing. What's more, with the childhood obesity rate climbing, My Weight Loss Coach seems friendly enough for kids to use. Personally, I don't have any issue with games helping me stay fit, cause the day is long and hard enough as it is and every little bit helps! Wouldn't you agree?
