How Effective Are Exercise Bikes In Achieving Weight Loss?

Posted on July 13, 2010 by Sue Westwood

I have just aquired an exercise bicycle from a friend of mine who was moving that didn’t wish to take it with her.
When I go to the gym (rarely) I usually use the elliptical machine, but since I have this bike now, I would much rather stay at home and workout.
My question is for those of you who ride exercise bikes, is it really just as effective as other machines at weight loss, or will I have to ride at longer intervals to achieve any type of results?

Metformin For Insulin Resistance In Achieving Weight Loss: How Long Does It Take To Work?

Posted on January 8, 2010 by Sue Westwood

I have been diagnosed with insulin resistance and have been prescribed 2500 mg metformin daily.
Many ppl with PCOS, metabolic syndrome, or insulin resistance lose weight bc their insulin isnt working properly without the aid of metformin or the like. I have been on it for over a week and have not lost any weight.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced weight loss after a couple weeks, rather than immediately.
