My wife uses it and loves it. She is able to get up before kids wake up, knock out the work out and be ready for the day. She is definitely sore and in her 3rd 21d month now (lost 16 pounds first two months I believe) and has moved on to a zumba type thing I think - another BB product (I saw her doing it the other day and…

So to update this. I wear it but not 24/7. I wear it from the time I wake up till when I am done for the day. I wore it overnight for a while but didn't get much value. I really wanted it mostly to better understand what my calorie burn was like during different days and workouts. I have been happy with that aspect of it.…

Thanks for all the replies!! The Fitbit Flex seems to really just measure movement vs. the Body Media one actually calculates calorie burn right? Does fitbit do more than that? One thread called it a "glorified pedometer" - is it more than that?

Bump once more - try and get a few more responses?

I think FireOpal nailed it right on the head - switch something up. I travel a lot for work so I have to use a lot of different gyms and there are some that you just walk into and its like the energy is sapped out of you - could be lighting or setup or just a bunch of douchey dudes in the weights section. There are others…

You are the second person I have seen that said that - interesting. Both were girls - any guys have good/bad things to say? I will do more research on the Flex now

I know for me - there are just days I don't have it. Could be lack of sleep, didn't eat well, mind is elsewhere or whatever - but it happens to everyone I imagine. Doesn't mean anything. I have newborn twins (no prior kids) at home right now - everytime something happens we call the doctor. First thing they say is "how…

Others said it already but I always said the same thing. I sweat like a pig so I am soaked after a run whether its raining or not - at least when its raining I have an excuse for coming in looking like I went through a car wash!!!

Very cool!!! Am sure he will love that! Nice job!!

Surprised that was in Texas - they are generally less liberal than northern states

My gut would say its not on the up and up - but you have to decide if some flirting while on the road (assuming he isn't actually physically cheating or whatever) is worth ending the relationship. Either way you might as well confront him and get real story - or as real as he will tell you and make a decision based on that

At a party, if small plates are available and you choose not to take a plate, you will spill on yourself 100% of the time.

I want exactly 100% of the people on my FL that can't be on OP's FL

I think whatever it is that gives you the motivation to make a shot at it is a good thing. If that means you wait until Dec 1, or Monday, or Jan 1, or whatever - who cares. This site should be about supporting those that are ready to make a change. My favorite thing to see is someone very large or obviously out of shape at…

Do you live near any ninja's?

Like - after its over watching what you recorded? Who doesn't like that! Any ex have tapes of you?

Do you only come on here at work like I do?

Temp seems ok to me, care to taste?

I am in same situation as OP :-) While it sounds good to make it at home, a lot of times business lunches or group meals will require you to go out. For my job we are very very strongly encouraged to eat meals with the teams so we can "network" - it is just part of the job. I love the ideas - not something you want to do…

Absolutely incredible!!!! SOOOO well done!!!

I give up - I can't get pics to load - haha http://realityofhealthy.tumblr.com/image/9846804006 that is one of my favs :-)

Bumping again :-)

So far I can only time travel when I sleep or drink a lot. Someday I am confident I can time travel from like 9-5 every Monday to Friday. If anyone knows how to do that, can you please e-mail me?

I guess i will be the voice of opposition here somewhat. It is certainly not unfair of you to get married a few months after your sister, it is what it is with that, but just think about what its going to do to any family that has to travel to both weddings. So its not an issue - but don't be upset if some of your extended…

Bumping this - looking for more of these - I am using this one already: img http://bighugelabs.com/output/motivator53db3d5306171f23e993dacc08acea8ec24b0db4.jpg /img hope it works!!!! Fail - what did I do wrong??

First - you look absolutely amazing - AWESOME JOB!! Second - I love, and am now stealing this quote: "The number one reason that people quit is because they look at how far they have to go, not how far they've come."

I did day one today - would definitely need heavier weights. I like to lift weights, so this workout wouldn't give me the muscle build but christ was it hard on the cardio side. Lots of legs which for most guys they workout the least, so I will plan on using this for a few weeks and just supplementing some heavier lifts…

I am 34 and I don't like to eat my vegetables - my parents never figured it out - haha

Kids make it tough for sure!!! I don't have any - so take this with a grain of salt (is it bad to say that on a diet site??), but the ones who do say that what motivates them is the knowledge that the healthier they are, the more energy they will have to be able to spend with their kids through their lives. Think of it as…
