The noise it made sounded like my robotic knee needed oil. Very distracting. People kept looking at me trying to find where the noise was coming from. Check out some of the 10,000 Step programs.

I'm in a 24-7-365 organization so there's no telling when something tasty and evil will show up. There are also a lot of vending machines. An awful lot of them. Mostly what I apply is will power. Sometimes it doesn't work. I keep my some healthy foods on hand for myself so I'm not hungry when the snacks come around. The best thing I've done for myself, when I do lapse, is eat a few bites, put it down and get on with my day. I found that worrying about having indulged makes me feel worse.

Its tough to get 5 or 6 meals in so heres a few healthy alternatives to junk food that don't need to be refrigerated. Nuts (I love wasabi almonds) Natural Peanut Butter on some kind of fruit you can carry. Bananas, apples, pears. I have weird taste so it works for me. Beef Jerky. Its a great source of lean protein without the carbs. I know its these aren't glamorous but they get the job done. Hey guys, I have a few travel tips for ya that I use every time I’m away from home.

It's nice to see people moving during the work day. I'm a bit crazy. I have weights in my studio, so I do ten sets of ten reps (one set per hour) Monday through Friday. I break up my body parts. For example, Monday: biceps and back, Tuesday: legs, Wednesday: Shoulders, chest and triceps, repeat. I only do legs, regardless of my rotation, once during he work week. I do a long run or bike on the weekend for a second leg day. Sundays off. The ten of ten keeps me from sweating too much in my "work" clothes. Since I do have to meet guests and sponsors, I can't sweat too much. Oh. I do my cardio in the mornings before going in to the studio. Great show Jason and Steven. Keep it up. :) Great question.

We have an open kitchen, with grocery orders that get delivered twice a week. Many sandwich, cereal, soup, cookie, cracker, fruit, vegetable, soda, juice etc options to choose from not to mention once a week breakfast gets made for the whole office and meetings that run during lunch and they order take out for us.... Oh yeah and the candy at the front desk. Unfortunately I've only gained weight since starting instead of loosing. Though I'm trying to get a handle on it and remind myself of all the things I can eat vs what I shouldn't.

In just a couple of short weeks this has become one of my top favorite shows. This episode in particular really struck me. A couple years ago I dropped a significant amount of weight. Over the last year I've watched as much of it came back to me. Most of the problem has been dietary, which is harder for me to control than keeping a workout regime going. My non-professional understanding, gleaned from lots of reading, is that the majority of weight control comes from dietary choices. I’m still working to find a consistent method I can stick with to get a better handle on eating choices. Keep up the great job gentlemen. Gentlemen-

I checked out mapmywalk.com and found it really useful. I wasn't exactly sure how long my usual walk route was, but with the help of that tool, it showed me that my mileage assumptions were correct! Thanks for the name drop as well (yes, it's pronounced like "Ellie", Elli is just the German form ;)) You liking the Coke Zero? Another good one is Sierra Mist Free if you haven't tried it.

We've been spending a lot of time brainstorming ways to make user interaction easier, and I'm confident you'll like the improvements when we roll them out. Steve: some of the problems you experienced are because currently exercises are categorized three ways on gimme20.com. You are able to track by time, by distance, or by weight/sets/reps. Perhaps it would make more sense, to combine distance and time into a single type? Thanks for all the feedback gentlemen. Kind Regards, J http://www.gimme20.com Hey guys -

This will cook the chicken from the inside out so I do it for any chicken recipe so i'm guaranteed that the inside of the chicken is cooked properly. I found nuking your chicken prior to putting it in the skillet makes it juicier. Just a suggestion to those who don't have as much time to cook this normally.

I am Biffster from <a href="http://weightjournal.com">www.weightjournal.com</a>! I found your podcast about a month-and-a-half ago or so. I've been listening ever since. You have a very good podcast going on here! Keep up the great work. I had a couple of notes about the last episode I listened to (this one): # Favorite inspirational quotes that keep the weight loss groove going. You probably had someone correct you on this already, but the "a journey of 1000 miles..." quote is not Confucious, it is Lao-Tzu. Anyone who has studied Taoism/Daoism sat up and said, "oh no he didn't..." :) (Specifically, this is from the Tao Te Ching, chapter 64a.) # Playing DDR and possibly getting a digital recording. For DDR, have you looked into getting a Playstation 2 or a Nintendo Gamecube? We have a Gamecube with DDR: Mario Mix, and it is great. The only thing better than getting exercise via a video game is getting exercise via a Super Mario Bros. game! :) I meant to send an audio comment, but was too slow. I might do so for your next episode, though. Cheers! Greetings! I am Biffster from http://www.weightjournal.com! I found your podcast about a month-and-a-half ago or so.

You're right, it's a cross between a street bike and a mountain bike and you can sit upright. Mine also has a squishy seat with shock absorption. Mine is a Raleigh and it looks like a mountian bike.

He's lost a lot of weight, and it shows. He's able to do things now that he hasn't been able to do for years. Jason is anything but lazy. He works hard at everything he does. He may not be an expert, but he's learning the ropes as he goes along. These 2 guys never said they know it all. If you actually paid any attention to what they've said, you'd know they're the first ones to point out that they are learning right along with the rest of us. Steve and Jason speak about what works for them in hopes that someone might be inspired to become active and find what works for them. So, Wilma, next time you decide to push that "send comment" button, use that brain in your head to think about what you're motive for commenting is.
