Hemp Oil
I ordered in organic cold pressed hemp oil to try and add healthy choices, but in the mornings when I make a fruit smoothie which can vary from 230-330 calories, than if I add a tablespoon of hemp oil at 125 in calories, that boost my calories count over which in turn less calories for the next meal or a snack.

Elliptical bike
I have been pondering around about getting a elliptical bike. I see the two brands, Elliptigo or StreetStrider. Has anyone experienced either one of these? Should I invest in a 3 speed or 8 speed? Moving handlebars or stationary? Is it worth the money?

waitress tracking/logging

fruit
