She should have a BMI of 19. There is no way that the Wii Fit would class that as overweight. All the usual stuff has been trundled out, quotes from experts, BMI doesn't distinguish fat and muscle, etc. etc. How about user error? My niece insisted her BMI was 27 which is hilarious -- turned out to be her Wii Fit age whilst her BMI was 17. I have been following this story all round the net and commenting on it wherever I can. It's amazing that nobody has asked the girl to demonstrate the wii fit misbehaving in this way.

Pleeeaassaseee!!!!!!!! If it sting's do something.

It does work though, when you use it with a little intelligence. Just like you said, they should use their eyes.
