Best Workout/running shoes for ladies
I was wondering what the ladies would consider as the best shoes to use in general cardio, running or aerobics.

How many Kg to lose per week?
I just started my diet and exercise schedule 20 days ago, I lost only 3 Kg in 3 weeks (1kg/week). I feel this is too slow. I see people following diets losing 3 Kg in one week. Am I doing something wrong? is it water retention? or my metabolism rate is very slow :(
