Sweaty girls at the gym-hot or not?
When I go to the gym, I end up dripping with sweat after 45-60 minutes of cardio. (I do use a sweat towel, at least) But I'm also a single woman in her late 20's, and there are a lot of hotties at my gym, so I do try to look somewhat cute when I'm there.

Why do we weigh less in the morning?
At the risk of sounding like a dtiz, why do we weigh less in the morning than we do the night before?

Heart Rate Monitor-how does it work?
Hi I'm curious about buying a heart rate monitor to log exercise, but how do you use it to log the work out? I like to ride my bike a lot in the summer and I think this would be the best way to accurately track the work I'm doing. I also do not trust the read out on my elliptical at all. I know the Fit Bit is compatible…
