    Your face is pasty, your eyes glazed, your thumbs sore and your butt soft from sitting inert in front of your console for hours on end. It's time to play a new game. Yourself Fitness is a diet and fitness program with a predictably creepy yet kinda cute cybergal "virtual personal trainer" who prescribes an exercise program and calls you a naughty boy if you skip a day. Yourself Fitness is available for the Xbox, PS2 or PC.
