Are you exercising?

Yes, Dan, six days a week. I try to couple jogging with my Bowflex every other day 
and aerobics in my living room the other days. It's getting cold here so I won't get 
out as much.

ie. Bowflex--anyone considering buying this or any other overpriced exercise torture 
chamber, please think long and hard. I feel like an idiot for buying a $1000 shovel 
glove. I guess it's been worth it because my severe back and hip problems have 
disappeared since using it, but I wonder if the shovel glove would have had the same 
results.

Teresa, 

Frequently, as you "tone up"
muscle replaces fat, and since muscle is more dense
than fat, you lose size, but not weight. This means
that your jeans will fit better. 

If you're not exercising, you should start ;)
