Congrats classicalgeek on the weight loss!  I used an elliptical for a spell several years ago, I lost alot of weight fast.  It's a great machine.
Thank you!

We have considered an elliptical.  What type do you have?  (and congrats on the weight loss).
Thanks!  I will have a look when I get home.  We bought it about eight years ago, not cheap ($1500 or so) but durable and worth the investment.

Wow, look at all the extra space since the room was first opened!

Thanks man.

My wife tells me that our scale's battery is dead.

Probably shows you all I need to know about me - didn't know where the scale was, didn't know the battery was dead...

The brand is Essential Fitness, the model number is XT4.  I looked up when we bought it - October 2003.  So it's probably long discontinued - I'm not sure what they're like nowadays.  But I highly recommend an elliptical if you're looking for one piece of home fitness equipment.

But I know there's a scale, somewhere. And I've heard of batteries . . . .

From last measurement I gained 2 lbs, but this week I lost most of it again.  Not surprised I'm fluctuating around the weight I had after the huge loss from spring break.  I haven't had much exercise (due to being overly tired) so I'm pleasantly surprised that I didn't put half of it back on.

It's creeping up.

Time to get mad again.  >:(
