...when reading the message boards is so entertaining and I'm glued to them? How am I supposed to want to get up out of my computer chair and exercise when it's such an addicting site? I mean, really! ;)

    yes the site is very addicting for me though honestly my struggle as a stay at home mom is staying out of the fridge so if i spent hours on here off and on reading posts , successes etc...it helps me stay out of the dreaded kitchen !

    At first it kept me by forgetting to eat. Now I love to do my exercise and come here and post it. See I am almost done with my 100 mile challenge. But you have a very good point.
