Collect coins. It's cheap and fun. It can get expensive if you let it but you don't have to let it. Bonsai and other forms of gardening is always an option, too. There's tons of fun stuff to do. Look in the hobby section of your bookstore or go to Hobby Lobby and browse around. Just remember, boredom only sets into boring minds. Good luck! :)

Your goal seems like a pretty reachable one to me. One wii fit alone though, you're not going to achieve this. To lose 10-15 pounds in about a month or so, you'd need to commit to running around a mile daily. Running, really is the best way to shed that fat quickly. The faster/harder you run the mile and keep pushing yourself, the faster you're going to lose that weight. However, make sure that you're still eating normally and not skipping out on meals. Try having 6 smaller meals a day instead of 3 big ones and by the end of your time frame, you'll definitely be looking at a thinner you.

What do you like? What tools do you have? How much do you want to spend?

Right now I'm brewing beer again. Couple hundred for a beginners set-up (including ingredients) (not those crappy kits).

I've also ordered a smoker now, going to get into that again.

You can pick up a cheap motorcycle on craigs list and fix it up. Just make sure it comes with a title. Heck, you can pick up a cheap anything on craigs list and fix it up. Lots of ideas there.

Heirloom plants are big if you like gardening. Tomatoes grow easy in pots and there are some cool varieties.

Man the world is your oyster.

try building model rockets. my man started with a kit i got him for christmas, and then got some more kits, and then that was too easy so he started building his own, electronics and all. it's a lot of fun to shoot them off in one of the big fields nearby.

you could build furniture and sell it, a nice tidy little income there; or keep it for your home. you could garden (if you have space), my dad started his own veggie garden as a way to get some outside activity after he was ill--the man is proud of those tomatoes, and with reason!

you could take up painting, reading, pottery...anything that strikes your fancy.
good luck! happy hobbying!

Decorate clay pots. They can be painted and
made into all kinds of things like a bird bath.

Try woodcarving or furniture making. Put that scrap wood to good use.
