NYCinephile . Fitness Guru Posts: 328 NYCinephile . My fitness regimen includes stationary cycling, light weight training and lots of walking around NYC. I'm a graduate of WeightWatchers and an enthusiastic advocate of its balanced approach to weight loss.

Richard Crawford traineo Regular Posts: 41 Richard Crawford I'm a writer and a web developer. Neither is a very active occupation, so I'm trying now to make up for a lifetime of sedentary activity and overeating. I'm not tracking calories since I'm following the Weight Watchers Core Program, where calories are not tracked.	# Posted: 18 Dec 2006 21:59 @NYCinephile, AN is a terrifying disease. Just the preview for that documentary gave me the chills.
