Dance question

I'm really, super obese and trying to lose weight. My gram is getting me,a wii for Christmas (i'm not suppose to know that) and DH is getting me one of the Just Dances. How often do I need to do it and for how long for it to be considered exerise? TIA

30 minutes - hour (or more if you wan)t/everyday till you're satisfied with the results.

I know Dance Central has a fitness mode on the XBox. Just Dance probably has one too. But I'd say 30-45 mins.

Ohhh! You will like it!!! I love my Wii for workouts!

Start at 15 minutes and slowly work your way up from there. You ahve to start slow or you will be kicking yourself.

I love dance games!! To be honest, I splurged. I have an Xbox 360, with kinect and I'm Dance Central all the way. I believe Just Dance has a fitness option...

This...
If you haven't been working out already jumping right into doing it an hour a day is going to kill you, and your way more likely to give up. So start easy, and work your way up.
I love the just dance games they are so much fun, even more fun to do with others, I suggest a work out buddy! I do it with my SIL and MIL.

Wii works my arms like no other.

What are some other good gamea to get for workouts besides.the one with the balance board?

I only ever do the just dance, there's 4 different ones so lots of variety! I want to get the Zumba one though.
