Bowflex and Strength Training
Hi again, I recently posted about getting a new(used) Bowflex and wanting to know what exercises/muscle groups to do. I got good responses but now I'm curious....will training with the Bowflex give me good results as with free weights? How about if I set the resistance as high as I can, as if I were lifting "heavy?" I know…

Bowflex owners?
Hey all...need a little assistance! We recently bought a used Bowflex PR1000 home gym, in great shape with all the parts. I currently do spin class 3 days a week but need to start strength training as well to fire up the fat burning and start toning. Does anyone have an example of a weekly Bowflex workout schedule? Google…

Bought a BodyMedia Fit-Question!
Ok, so I'm a lover of all techie gadgets so I went ahead and bought the BodyMedia Fit. I registered online and did all that happy stuff, my question is, when should I "start?" I know it logs sleep, so should I put it on after my shower tomorrow morning and not sync it until the following morning so I get a full 24 hours of…

Diet Soda-Real Talk!!!
Ok, so I love me some Diet Pepsi. However, based on the research (or whatever) that drinking diet soda can actually contribute to weight GAIN, I've cut my allowance down to one 20 oz. a day. I guess one of the reasons it's bad is it can make you body crave real sugar then you binge? Well, I don't do that, I don't have much…

San Francisco Trip!
Hi friends! The hubs and 7 y/o daughter and I are going to San Francisco for Spring Break. Aside from the usual "touristy" stuff, (i.e. Alcatraz, Fisherman's Wharf, etc.) does anyone have any suggestions for must-see-or-do? None of us have ever been to California! We'll be there for a week..... Thanks in advance!

100 calories of deliciousness!!!
So, wanting to see what the fuss was about I went ahead and ordered the "Chocolate Sampler" of Vitatops and Vitabrownies. I just ate a double chocolate chip vitatop and WOW!!! It was so scrumptious, I actually felt guilty eating it! So, if anyone has been riding the fence deciding on whether or not to get some, I highly…

RAVENOUS! Please look and advise....
PLEASE look at my diary for the past week and see if you can give me some advice....as you can see, I eat ALOT of food. I eat breakfast around 0730, snack at 1000. lunch at 12-ish, second snack around 1400, then dinner around 1800. Here's my issue. About an hour after I eat breakfast, I am absolutely starved. My…

Easy Tip for Office Workers
I got this idea from my First Sergeant...for those of us that sit at our desks alot of the time, try switching your chair to a 75 cm exercise ball! I've done it about 1/2 the day every day for the past week. You don't really feel anything while your sitting on it, but after a few hours my core felt a wee bit tighter! I…

Hiya
Newbie here! Really like this site and it helps me stay accountable. I've got about 26 pounds to lose. I'm a stocky Michigan girl and have never been "skinny" and never will be, I've accepted that. I look sexy with SOME curves anyway!!! :) I think my metabolism has slowed majorly due to years of crash dieting. I'm in the…
