Does anyone bowflex?
My son bought a bowflex last year and when he left to enlist in the Air Force, he left it here. There's no way he can fit it into his dorm room so it will live in his old bedroom until he gets an appartment or house, or whatever. I would have never bought one myself, they are expensive, but since it's here, I thought I…

Exercising and Sweating
Sorry if this is a gross subject - but does anyone else notice that they sweat more now that they've lost weight? It seems like the more weight that I lose, the more I sweat when I work out. You would think it would be just the opposite, since your body is carrying less weight during your workouts. Maybe it's just me, but…
