Thinking about buying a Garmin Vivofit? Don't..
Okay, I like gadgets. But gadgets that make sense. The Fitbit seems to and did work for awhile but I thought "if I'm going to wear something it should have a display"...So I bought a Garmin vivofit....Mistake. Fitbit has a a great iPhone interface and dashboard and works almost seamlessly with MFP...that's a priority. The…

Not hungry

Trek 5200
I've got this great TREK 5200 that I bought new and is really too much bike for me. It's virtually brand new with less than 100 miles on it. Looking at getting a TREK touring bike or another brand. Any suggestions on where to sell this beauty?

Hitting the road
The season is here....we photograph horse shows all over the US and our travels start next week. The big challenge is going to be to eat sensible and healthy while ewe are gone. Having our trailer really helps as we cook our own meals but with 14 hour days, all standing, exercise might be a little tough.. I'll let you know…

Correct bike fit/setup
It has been awhile since I've been on my Trek 5200....I'd like to get a "fit" and correct setup as I'm older, in better shape and want to make sure I enjoy the ride. Any suggestions on where to go. Madison, WI is 2 hours, Dubuque, IA about an hour....

Can't wait for this spring
Of course I had to have it..a new Trek 5200 that last year the US Postal Team sponsored the US team. I bet I haven't ridden it 30 miles..I've lost weight, losing more and can't wait to get back on. My first goal is to ride across southern Wisconsin from the Mississippi to Lake Michigan..anyone have a route they have used?

Friday is the day!

Some exercise but frankly I'm not going outside in minus 20 degree weather for anything other than to load wood stove. I haven't weighed myself yet but have an appointment with nutritionist on Friday at the VA..go over my…

It fits!
It's been 20 plus years and I'm not sure why I kept it. My USMC field jacket, that I wore for over 22 years as a Marine last fit in 1993. For some reason I kept it. I haven't weighed myself in the first month of my "back to Nick" journey but for grins I tried it on yesterday....and it fit! I can't wait until its baggy..

How to figure this?

I'm excited..
After being really fit all my adult life..I was a US Marine for 22 years, no way to get fat and stay in, I retired and got lazy. And fat. After trying a couple ill fated and flawed attempts I'm back on track. Went to the VA for a physical and to see a nutritionist. She has been a great help and the one that told me about…

Eliptical trainer or Nordic Track
A long time ago I had a basic Nordic Track and from what I've learned I just might be the only only that bought one that actually used it. Wore it out over 5 years. Long gone… And yes, I'm kidding, many folks use theirs..I hope. I'd like to find another basic unit, don't care about a fancy monitor or counter…just start and…
