Is Wii fit real exercise?

I don't really think the wii fit will ever replace going to gym for me...but it is fun I must say and some of the exercise are hard and challenging. I think the point is that it gets you moving instead of sitting on the couch and that's awesome. Yesterday was a pretty good day. I had to work, but unlike usual I avoided constant snacking and got in a good bit of water. I also made sure to do my food journal. I'm really trying to stay atuned to my triggers.
