Watch this.
paying by the pound

abcnews investigative report. skinny hot chicks are offered more discounts and lower rates than overweight ones.

this PISSES ME OFF

So if an obese person can overcome the embarrassment/shame or whatever of working out in public they're going to have to pay more than the skinny hot chicks?

Anyone using the Fitbit Flex or similar devices?
I have a bodymedia fit and love it. It really helps keep you motivated and focused. It does allow you to sync with a heart rate monitor, but I find it has been a good tool regardless.
