Since you guys are talking about dieting, and perhaps having to start exercising, I feel that I cannot in good conscience hold back from telling you what the best exercise machine out there is....
Ready?..... Ok, answer: The Total Gym
Believe me, I've demo'd everything out there, read all the consumer reports, etc., and there is no machine (for the money) that is better than the TotalGym. I've talked MANY people into buying them, and everybody is thrilled with theirs.
The ONLY problem you might have with it is if you're tall or very heavy, in which case you'll have to spring for the heavier-duty model and not the one for $200 in the dept. stores.
If you're interested in getting one, I'd search the net and try to get a slightly heavier duty model than the one in the stores. And by all means, don't buy it off the infomercial, that model is WAY too expensive for what you get.
The Total Gym will work all your muscle groups through a FULL range of motion (something every other machine SAYS they have, but lie about). It gives you a great variety of movements so you won't get bored. You can have very little resistance if you want so its ideal for fat burning. The only muscle group that doesn't get the best workout on it is your calves, but those can easily be done through other means if necessary.
Believe me, this machine, for the money, is FAR FAR better than anything like exercise bikes, Weider home gyms, etc.
