treadmill desk burn 100 calories per hour

I like that idea, at home we should be able to tap our TVs into these things, we can watch TV, lose weight and save on electricity. I use my iPod when I use the treadmill, we should be able to charge batteries with it for future use.

Great idea red. That makes more sense than using them to lose weight.

I like your idea, the more you use, the healthier you become and the more money that is saved. Pure brilliance, redyellowblackdog!

I really didn't mean that exercise is a fad. The fad is that so many buy these devices thinking they will use them to lose weight or get in shape. The sad truth is that most do not stick with a plan and end up sticking their treadmill or whatever in the basement or getting rid of it. I hope you can make some progress with your plan to get healthier. How you think of yourself has a lot to do with it, I believe. See yourself as being healthy and follow your inner urges to reach your goal. Last I heard, McDonald's sales keep rising, so someone besides you and me are eating their junk foods.

I don't think the exercise thing is a fad. I eat healthy, I can't remember the last time I was in a McD or BK or Wendy's or anything else - wait one time we went to a sonic in October. But I don't lose weight, I am at between 1200 and 1500 calories a day, I am now using a treadmill for about 20 minutes a day 4 times a week - I am building up but the scale does not move. It is not so easy for a lot of people and definitely harder for women then men. But I do like your idea of waiting for a garage sale...since that is the only way I will be able to afford it.

We just went to the mall today and realized the local McD's in their was gone. It was closed. So they must not have been doing to well.

Some typing I could do...but if I was a real trained typist, I am not sure. There would have to be a place to rest my hands. It would develop new neuro-networks and help prevent alzheimers.
