Juliet: No spoilers here! We wouldn’t do that to you.

I know what you mean about getting sicker, though. I let my cold guide me. If I don’t even feel like getting out of bed, I don’t work out. If I’m not miserable, I’ll do something lighter or just walk. The body always knows best!

I definitely think this season’s biggest loser is going to inspiring. They have some highest weights of the show’s history. I can’t wait to see the changes!

Hey! I can’t read your whole posting since I haven’t watched the biggest loser premier yet… I did slowly read the first paragraph, though, hoping it wouldn’t spoil anything …So, my experience is that if I exercise when sick I end up WAY SICKER. I did that once (I think I let myself get dehydrated) and learned that lesson for my lifetime.. I will not test that again. But, each person is different.

I’ve found exercising with a cold really helps, er, how to say this nicely? It helps get the juices flowing? Fine when I’m outside, alone on a trail, with no one to hear me expectorate. Less cool when someone’s nose is dripping all over the treadmill!

I’ve already got the DVR ready to record the entire season of BL – I started using a BL workout video and developed a little crush…this will be the first time I’ve actually watched the show though!

And I’m just starting to get over my cold, so that advice is sort of timely too…I exercised even on the days I felt worst and I think it helped me feel better. I would second Erica’s comment though – don’t even go to the gym if you have a cold; work out at home!

I agree with MizFit. I dug yesterday’s Oprah. And am I the only one that DID NOT notice she gained weight over the years?!? I don’t know I guess I just always see her the same way LOL

I could not be more excited for the premiere of The Biggest Loser. I find it really hard to stay motivated during these winter months. Having this show to look forward to certainly helps!

I totally forgot about Oprah though, I meant to record the show but it slipped my mind. I’ll have to remember to tune in this afternoon for the continuation!

I think working out with a cold is fine if you fee up to it but PLEASE wipe down anything you touch in the gym

I was really surprised how much I enjoyed Oprah yesterday.
not annoying
not whining
AT ALL.

I adore her striving for balance notion which, for me, works better when envisioned as striving for HARMONY.

but I loved it.
