Stationary Bike Questions
We ordered the Proform Hybrid Stationary Bike/Elliptical and it's due to arrive in a few days. As far as I am aware, the display will show RPM and I think possibly MPH. What it will not show is distance. I know I'm obviously not going anywhere, since it's stationary but I want to know my "trip distance". I've seen some…

Pretty simple, List 1 Weird Fact About Yourself. You can go as many times as you'd like. You yourself don't have to consider it weird, it could just be something others would consider unusual.

Showering makes me sick
Literally. I get really nauseous every time I take a shower. After about 10 minutes, the nausea hits and sometimes I even feel like I'm going to pass out. I attribute it to how the heat effects me, but it's really bad sometimes. like just now i felt like i was going to vomit,or die. Our shower gets too hot, and we keep it…

Hip Bones
I have the worst bones ever. But my Hips drive me crazy because they stick out. My hip bones protrude so much that if I try to lay on my side there's a good chance it will cause a ton of pain. That didn't use to matter, because I was always a back sleeper, but now I'm much more comfortable on my side...except for when i'm…

Severe Pain after Eating
Lately I've been getting severe pain after eating rice (Usually Brown & White mixed, or sometimes just white). I don't know what's going on, but the pain is pretty intense. It feels like the rice just sits in my stomach for hours and I can practically feel each individual grain poking my stomach lining...or something like…

401k thread
Yay. a super fun thread. My husband turns 32 today, and his 401k is terrrrible. Seriously. I don't think I can put enough r's in the word terrible to really paint you all a picture of how awful it is. He's been super super super conservative, and had 100% in what seem to be bonds (even though they're not called bonds). He…

"No-Poo" Challenge
Does anyone out there "No-poo"? :bigsmile: I've been a WEN girl for about 3 years so I haven't really "poo'ed" since that time. I decided that I wanted to ween myself off of WEN, so I started the "no-poo" challenge today using only baking soda and water. The result was actually pretty fantastic. I've used baking soda…

I will NEVER be able to figure out my Frame Size.
I am female and about 5'7 I have smallish extremities...my hands have not grown since I was 12 years old. I measured my wrist today and I think they're almost 6" but my freaking ribs stick out like crazy. They drive me nuts because they feel huge. My hips also stick out which is why I thought I had a big frame, but I've…

OT Water temperature...
Don't know where else to ask this. Usually I use Y!Answers, but the site is down. I woke up this morning to find that the sinks in our condo will not run cold. This is a new problem and it's affecting both the kitchen and the bathroom sink. I thought it could be something with the pipes until I realized it's affecting both…

Almond Butter
I don't like Almond butter because it just has too much texture for me. Especially the fresh ground almond butter. But I like how nutritious it is, and I want to benefit from it... so I've started adding it into my Almond milk Ice cream (vegan) Mix the almond butter (I use 30g) with whatever toppings or sauces you want to…

Polar FT7 Waterproof question
I own the FT7 and i only have the stuff that comes in the package (the little transmitter and basic strap). I know the FT7 is waterproof and I'm planning on taking it when we go away next weekend (for use in the hotel pool). Do I have to have a special strap and transmitter or will the regular ones go in the water without…

Fitbit Discontinued?
A few (2-3) weeks ago I saw the fitbit being sold in target. I went there last night to buy one, and it's completely gone. The only mention of the fitbit on target.com is part of the Xbox360 package. The same goes for walmart.com...no other mention of the FB being available at all. Is it being phased out of stores? Maybe…

Who Would Like this $20 Bill?
A well-known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $20.00 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?" Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this." He proceeded to crumple up the $20 dollar bill. He then asked, "Who still wants it...?"…

Zumba for Kinect vs Zumba DVDs vs Zumba Classes
I'm expecting the Kinect Zumba in the mail this week. I'm also thinking of ordering the DVD set. I've never tried zumba (not even the classes), but how do they compare with each other? How would you rate the 3 types of zumba...if you've tried them all?

Prenatal VItamins
I'm not pregnant, and have never been pregnant but it has been suggested that I should look in to taking Prenatal vitamins for my hair. The top half of my hair grows fine, but the bottom doesn't grow. I'll never be able to have my hair all one length. It's super fine and i can't do anything with it except put it in a pony…

I was supposed to do week 1 day 3 today, but I'm a little under the weather today. So my options seem to be: - Do 4 days of C25K this week (1 day of week 1 and 3 days of week 2) - Skip day 3 and just move on to week 2 or - Repeat week 1 all over again I would love a little advice, if anyone has any thoughts. This is not…

Biggest Loser Fitness Monitor
It's on sale on groupon. Just wondering if anyone has it and how it compares to the Fitbit and the Bodybugg (which I know very little about) I think I remember them selling it a few years ago, when my mother in law went to curves...but i could be wrong. the lights look familiar. Edit: It's actually called a "Slim coach"…
