Ok, so I was'nt sure how to get this information, so thought i would just put the question out there for all of you to answer if you have some advice.

I am wondering which Biggest loser game is better for the Wii. Is "Biggest Loser Challenge" better, or "Biggest Loser"?

Also I know it says for both those games that using the Wii Balance Board is an option and not required, but was wondering if someone could still have just a good of a workout without the balance board. The balance board is kinda spendy, so not sure if I want to buy one if I can go without it.

So there's a question!! Please answer if you know any advice or know anything about those games! Thank you!!

I love the EA active 1 and 2 personal trainer. I got great results from the first one. I sorta fell off the wagon and need to get back on. I do recommend you buy a good set of bands since the one that comes with it is not very good. I bought the Wii Activ3 Workout Kit to go with it. The balance board is optional I think with these, but I prefer to use it without the board.

I have the EA Active 2, it's pretty good. The best workout BY FAR, though, is Just Dance 2. I can keep my heart rate over 170 for an hour. I sweat more than running on the treadmill. And it's super fun!!

Yea I have heard of those games, I may check into the active ones. I was curious more about Biggest Loser ones though, so if anyone knows about those, and can answer the question I posted, than that would be helpful also!

I bought EA active 2 today, so far i really like it, even though i have only done one workout day! But i can sure feel it in my legs already!

      I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease abput 10 years ago. When I was initially diagnosed my only "symptom" was persistently low iron (that occasionally dipped into anemia). After diagnosis,  over time, I started to develop symptoms when exposed to gluten--they have been overall relatively minor, but have increased over time (and yes, I realize my guts are likely being wrecked regardless of the symptoms) on the rare occasions I've been exposed to gluten. I had COVID19 last week (now testing negative) and was glutened last night (never trust anything labeled gluten-free in a mixed environment). I had my traditional symptoms (sharp gas pains, burping, nausea, stomach ache) but they were accompanied by new, more intense symptoms (muscle cramps all over my body--feet, calves, biceps, neck, shoulders, jaw, abdomen, I'm still sore today and cold sweats). I spent about 6 hours writhing before I felt well enough to get up.  I have been told by my allergist that COVID19 can cause your immune system to hyper react. I'm wondering if that's what happened here.   Has anyone else had experience getting glutened post COVID19? Relatively shortly after recovering from COVID19? Was it a more extreme reaction or same? I can't seem to find any articles on this, so I thought I'd ask the community.  Thank you!

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.
