Well, I’ve got the iPhone app and the Pilates class, but I really have no idea how hard I’m actually working. At least, I didn’t until I got the Polar FT7 Heart Rate monitor for my birthday (yes, it sucks having a birthday this close to Christmas, btw). It really has too many features to list, but my favorite by far is the EnergyPointer. It tells you whether you’re actually burning fat during your workout and whether you’re actually improving your fitness. Turns out moving up to the next size exercise ball was worth it!

- Tells you if you’re burning fat!
- Displays calories burned!

I don’t know too much about how plastics are made, but I do know I don’t want to worry about me or my kids being exposed to anymore BPA. That’s why we’ve tossed out all our old plastic bottles and have moved up to stainless steel. The thinksport Stainless Steel water bottle is one of my recent purchases and I really love it. It’s great to take to the gym, it won’t let potentially hazardous chemicals leach into your drink, and it’s virtually indestructible. I left mine on the roof of my car and found it at the bottom of my driveway when I drove over it on my return home. Not. A. Scratch. Well, maybe a little one.
