Topic: RE: SUPPORT GROUP MEETING--OCT 15 GUEST SPEAKER
Popping in for a quick minute -- I am thrilled that the meeting is NEXT week and not tomorrow... I was so afraid I'd have to miss it.  We've got out of town friends we haven't seen in 5 years visiting tomorrow and I can't really say no to that.  It also appears I'm getting roped into being Den Mother for my son's cub scout troop... hubby won't bite the bullet though he's the one with the scouting experience (arrrgh, yes, I'm a little aggravated) and the planning meetings are also on the second Thursdays.  There's not enough hours in the day. :(

Susan, I have your bag from the Walk in my car whenever I get to see you.  I hope everyone's doing well!

Topic: RE: Monday once again. How was YOUR weekend???
Well Bill has beer entered in the State Fair brewing contest, lol!

We are coming to LR this weekend for a judging!  I am sick of rain and hope it ends!
Saturday was nice and my 38th birthday.  I spent Sunday starting the wardrobe cycling, Spring up and Fall down!  I am already cold, I dread winter again, and well you are super skinny is the cold getting you yet?

Congratulations.

I am not too far from you in Fort Smith.  February will be 3 years for me and in January I will celebrate one year of marriage.  I have gained this year with the happy marriage and unhappy job stress but I gotta get that under control and back on track and exercising again!

Best Wishes

Topic: Groups & Activity

The last several months have been fairly busy ones here at OH and we are really excited
about this upcoming release. First, long overdue is the public release of OH Groups. You
will now be able to start and  manage your own public groups. Second, is a major update
to Health Tracker....Activity! We are planning to release these new features on Wednesday evening, October 7, 2009.

OH Groups

Getting to OH Groups is easy. Just click on the Groups tab at the top of any page on ObesityHelp. OH Groups allows you to start and manage your own groups, you can find groups that suit your interests and find support groups in your area.
If you are looking for an OH Group that focuses on a specific topic, you can browse groups by category.

 

Activity

To get to your Activity Tracker, click “My OH" at the top of any page on ObesityHelp, select “Health Tracker" on the left and then click the “Activity" tab.

Understanding your total daily caloric expenditure requires more than just knowing how many calories you burned on the treadmill. In your Health Tracker settings area you are now able to estimate the caloric expenditure of your resting metabolic rate (RMR) and lifestyle. These estimates are integrated and displayed with the caloric expenditure of the activities you have logged.
Your exercise log allows you to search for and add strength training exercises, cardiovascular exercises and general activities to your daily log. Caloric expenditure is auto calculated for a number of activities already included in our database of exercises. Pie charts display details about caloric expenditure and time for each type of activity.
Sets can be added and subtracted from strength training exercises. Reps and weight used can be entered for each set.
A number of details can be tracked for cardiovascular exercises and general activities. Some of these variables include, time, distance, calories burned, average heart rate, average power, altitude gained and average grade.
If you can’t find the exercise or activity you have participated in, you can also add your own custom exercises.
Other updates include the ability to create list of your favorite exercises, reports have been updated to include a number of activity items, the nutrition search has been enhanced and we have managed to slip in a sweet macronutrient report under the “Reports" tab.

If you have any questions, comments or concerns about the features in this release, please submit those here.

If your are new to ObesityHelp or have not used ObesityHelp's Health Tracker before, you can learn about the first release here and the second release here.

Please tell Rhonda I will keep her in prayer.  This weather is not at all friendly to those of us who have asthma.

Topic: RE: the walk
Hey everyone.  Sorry for the late post here, but I had a great time at the walk.  I got to meet a few of you and the day was beautiful.  Next year I hope that I will be able to go and meet even more folks.
