Ditch them both. You have better things to do with your time and you have already proven you are capable of working out better on your own.

I love it. I use it on popcorn instead of butter. Awesome stuff.

You're not there to impress anyone but yourself. The only dumbbells are the folks that won't exercise! :bigsmile:

One of the biggest problems society ever had was when they started classifying people by skin color and "race." There is no such thing as "race" and we are all the same species. There are people from various ethnic and geographical origins but there is nothing 100% definitive in their genetics or anything else which makes…

new and confused it better than old and confused. trust me! :bigsmile:

I had to use the check book.

Wow. Blast from the past.

It is not rude to say "NO" to goodies at the office. I don't know why its such a big deal. It took a while but everyone in my office now knows when they come down the aisles with "good stuff" and offer some to everyone, they still offer me a piece from a distance at a passing glance but they know I am just going to smile…

I would guess most peoples' diets last about three days.

Where as most of the "original" activities would rate more of a "strength training" exercise because of the additional weight of the gear, implements, racquets, what-have-ya...the Wii version of these activities is definitely some good exercise, just a lot more "cardio" than "strength training". If you actively participate…

"Premium" beverages are an amazing way to ingest sugar. I was explaining to a woman in the office the other day that her energy drink had 51 grams of sugar. She called me a liar and said "Its right here on the can...17 grams!" I told her that was 17 grams per SERVING and the can had three servings...according to the same…

Can I have hummus instead? Cheese and I don't get along too well.

Espresso shots actually have a fraction of the caffeine of a regular cup of coffee and much more flavor. An espresso shot or two diluted with hot water until it is the volume of a regular cup of coffee is actually much more satisfying to me than a regular cup of coffee. I used to drink a pot a day but I am now down to a…

Oh, well, that makes it a hell of a lot easier. Tell him you'll send a postcard...and then don't!

This. A lot of people at my office have been generous with their compliments but a handful of the overweight people are simply rude about it. One rotund woman laughed at me, said I look weak and told me I need to eat something. She said this in front of her friends who all thought it was quite amusing. Later on, when she…

I told myself I would walk at least half an hour every day. I made myself do it, every day. I told myself I would eat a half cup of oatmeal every day. I made myself do it, every day. I told myself I would drink a half gallon of water every day. I made myself do it every day. I told myself I would eat more vegetables and…

less carbs, more protein

I lost over 60 pounds using it. Was it worth it? Hell, yeah!

Yeah, I agree. All the bickering and hurt feelings and people being "offended" gets really old. You can't really complain too much because it will never stop and it will never go away. It is just an inherent part of being on the internet. Diversity is what makes out planet great...and it also opens up a vast opportunity…

I heard news stories about it being effective in staving off the effects of alzheimers at some point years ago.

In addition to several other foods, I have been eating plenty of everything on that list above (except yogurt...cutting back on dairy for lactose) and I have been impressed with my weight loss. I did not choose the items from any list but simply because they are natural, healthy foods and I enjoy them. Also, I've increased…

<brag> I took my new kayak out today! It was on sale! WOOT!! </brag>

Does it have alligators in it?

The guy in the wheelchair is Dr. Xavier. Oh...wait...

I don't think it takes into consideration the sugar and sodium and other factors we can overdo.

HRM is the way to go.

All the shorts and pants I bought in the last four or six months have been from Goodwill. When I level off, I will resume shopping at Wal-mart and Target. LOL By the way, went from darn-near 40 down to 32.

You have to take into consideration each person's goals. A nacho platter might be a couple steps up from where they were a few months ago when they were eating chips out of the bag all day long in front of the TV with no exercise whatsoever. I had Chinese take-out (orange chicken) the other day but I also got in some good…

Anyone notice the snakes were in a shatterproof box? That may influence your decision. :bigsmile:

I wonder how accurate the calorie and nutrient counts are on these food labels. I wonder how accurate my fitbit is while counting my calories. I wonder why I care after I've already lost sixty pounds. :bigsmile: I wonder if I have time to fix an omelet before I go to work.
