    I'm going to try this. I am going to use real hand weights. I have to take high school kids to P.E. And the weights are there so I can go from 5 to 10 and higher with that, then I will be strong enough to wrap my hands around their throats......

    that reminds me of the oscillating pedestal fan I have in my office. It always says "No" to anything I ask it. JJ

    Another great excercise for losing weight is as follows:
    1) Move your head to the left.
    2) Move your head to the right.
    3) Repeat first two stages
    4) Return head to centre
    Do this excercise every time someone offers you food and I will guarantee a weight loss!

    I like to do 12 oz curls once a week, and on that special day of the week, I usually repeat at least 6 times....

    good one here!
