  1. Those are some great apps Jane! However, i’m using RunKeeper. It’s free unlike Nike+GPS. It has a GPS to map your runs and gives you info on your speed and distance.

  4. Weight Watchers is the only effective diet program that is advertise on tv. I can attest to that because my brother used it and he lost tons of weight. It is true that you don’t need to exercise, but it also depends on how fit you want to get. For me, exercise is always necessary not just for loosing weight, but for staying fit. Thanks for this very informative article!
