We provide you with complimentary ring sizing at the point of sale and also for as long as you own the ring if needed in the future. We also provide you with free shipping to your address. Additionally, we stand behind the ring regarding required future repairs for a period of 5 years, assuming said repair is from normal wear and not caused by abuse.
Make An Offer
- I knew as soon as I got the ring it was perfect. I couldn't wait and proposed the same day. She said yes and loves the ring. She says it is perfect and exactly what she wanted. Thank you so much! We love it! Review by Nicholas M. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
Thanks again, Frank! You and your store are a dream to work with!
Review by Leah L. (Posted on 5/29/2012)
- Thank you so much for being flexible with payment options, and for your great service during the process. I'm so happy we stumbled across you guys online, and will be constantly recommending you to friends and family going forward; for the rest of our lives, really, because everyone will want to know where we found this beautiful ring. We were first amazed at your great selection, warranty, and great 'extras' (lifetime sizing, etc), but were absolutely sold after the prompt and personal attention we received after making an offer on the ring. We both work in service and don't have much disposable income, but knowing and working in the industry gives us a deep appreciation for people and companies who take the extra time and care to make something like this work. Thank you again for curating a selection of such special products, and for taking such good care of us strangers from Michigan, we couldn't be happier to have found this ring. Review by Pete & Taylor (Posted on 5/1/2014)
I am so happy with both my engagement ring and the professional and friendly services provided by the Gesner team. Living in San Francisco and having visited all the local jewelry stores, I was at first apprehensive to buy a ring online. Shanel and the Gesner team did everything possible to make the process both easy and exciting, and even worked with my (now fiancé) to surprise me with the perfect estate ring.
I would recommend Gesner's unique ring collection and their service to anyone. Review by Amy S. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
- nice articles Review by jordan iv (Posted on 2/28/2015)
Just a quick note to say thank you. I received the ring yesterday and it is even better in person. My girlfriend will be one happy lady.
Quick question, if by any chance it is needed to be resized a bit, how can I go about it?
Thank you for the outstanding service provided. I am extremely pleased with the quality and the excellent service. I will sure recommend Gesner in the future.
Thank you again and have a wonderful holiday season.
All the best,
Marcos S. Review by Marcos S. (Posted on 12/20/2012)
- The sales staff was extremely helpful in helping me purchase the ideal diamond engagement ring. My soon to be wife is elated! Review by Anthony Z. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
- I purchased a beautiful Art Deco emerald engagement ring from Gesner in September 2013. I could not have been more delighted with the outstanding customer service provided. Communication and delivery was super fast. The ring was exactly as described. They are an extremely honest and trustworthy company. I recommend Gesner Jewelers wholeheartedly and without reservation. Review by Tim Hall (Posted on 11/26/2013)
- Thank you for helping make my dreams come true! The ring is absolutely beautiful! It is more than I ever dreamed of or could ask for. I have never been so happy and I am so glad you had a part in making me so happy. I can't wait to come in and look at bands! Thank you again! Review by Rachael D. (Posted on 2/22/2012)
- My vintage (almost antique) Art Deco diamond and sapphire engagement ring is from Gesner Estate Jewelers. I've worn it for over two years and have yet to see one I love, or even like, better. It was not the most expensive ring in their collection, by far. However, the Old European-cut center diamond and the delicate platinum filigree setting, accented with seven square cut sapphires and 14 smaller round diamonds, make for an exquisite and unique piece. Their on-staff professional jeweler sized the ring up from a 6 to an 8.5, extending the carved "wheat" pattern down the shank, perfectly matching the original. The condition of the ring, described as "excellent," was right on the money. The personal service, directly from Mr. Gesner and his daughter via telephone and email, was superb. This company is one of impeccable integrity that inspired the highest degree of confidence in this buyer. They have my *unqualified* endorsement. - Patricia A. Gallagher Review by Patricia A.

Monkeybrain Scares Up New Horror Series 'Boo'
Just in time for Halloween, the indie digital comic publisher announces a four-issue horror anthology series.
There is a great tradition of horror anthologies in comic books, from EC's Tales From the Crypt through DC's Ghosts and The Witching Hour. Next month, digital comics publisher Monkeybrain Comics will extend the legacy with Boo: Halloween Stories, a new anthology series featuring the work of upcoming new cartoonists and creators.
Washington-based creator "Calamity" Jon Morris announced the project earlier this week -- following up on a series of image teasers he's been posting online since this summer -- and also named the creators for the first of four issues: David Hopkins, Leonard Pierce, RJ White, Paul Milligan, Neal Von Flue, Carl Nelson and Matthew Warlick, with a framing sequence by Morris himself.
STORY: Monkeybrain Announces 'Inkshot' Anthology
The official solicit for the series reads, "Crawling from their Crypts, their Vaults, their Mansions and Houses come 12 of the creepiest, kookiest, corniest horror hosts of print and screen, vying to win the first-ever reality competition based on scary storytelling! Meet the Mysterious Wanderer! Meet Mister Puzzles! Meet Meredeth McMoonwolf, the Spidery Old Hag, Magog and Agog, a half-dozen more eerie weirdos and their host Dyin' Secrest, and find out who will survive -- BOO!" Yes, that really did just say "Dyin' Secrest." Admit it: You're hooked already.
Boo is the third comics anthology from Monkeybrain, following Brazilian creator showcase Inkshot and Western anthology series Real West, which launched this week with a story by B.P.R.D. writer John Arcudi and artist A.C. Zamudio. The new series will run weekly from October 10 through -- appropriately -- October 31, with each issue available through ComiXology for just 99 cents. (The first issue is currently available for preorder.)

Friendly, wonderfully loacted hotelPosted Mar 9, 2015
Pros: Great location to Harvard and the Charles River. We visited the museums and took the Red Line downtown for a show that evening.
Cons: I would have liked a coffee machine in the room. To get up and either order room service or go downstairs is inconvenient.
Location: There are too many things to mention. Cambridge has historical walks, museums, the Charles River, shops, Harvard. And Boston is an easy ride on the

Right in Harvard SquarePosted Jan 27, 2015
Pros: Location
Cons: Queen size beds instead of full size in double bed rooms. This is the only reason The Charles Hotel didn't earn an overall excellent rating from us.
Location: See above experience
My husband and I often stay in Cambridge while visiting our daughter who lives there. The Charles Hotel is in an excellent location. Not only is it steps away from Harvard Square, but it is only a few blocks walk to the Charles River. Harvard Square is full of restaurants and coffee shops. There are plenty of places to shop and browse which include several independent bookstores. There is a paved path along the Charles River which is great for a stroll or jog.

Really well run hotel within easy reach of BostonPosted Jan 5, 2015
Pros: everything.
Cons: not much.
Location: We had a great time walking around Harvard Square and also visited the Museum of Fine Arts, the New England Aquarium and the Museum of Science.
We stayed in a spacious 1 bedroom suite and took advantage of the hotel's many amenities, including the pool at the adjacent Wellbridge facility, the ice skating rink and Henrietta's Table. The service and food that we had for breakfast at Henrietta's Table were outstanding. The lap pool was also a nice treat for the kids. We especially enjoyed the apples in the lobby and the convenience of having a small ice skating rink right outside the hotel's door, complete w/ ice skate rentals and hot chocolate.

Woolridge Mentions

Orlando Woolridge, the rugged forward who carved out a reputation over 13 NBA seasons as a scoring specialist and one of the original alley-oop artists, died late Thursday at his parents' home in Mansfield, La. He was 52.
DeSoto Parish Chief Deputy Coroner Billy Locke said Woolridge died while under hospice care for a chronic heart condition.
The 6-foot-9 Woolridge was the sixth overall pick by the Chicago Bulls in 1981 after starring at Notre Dame in college and Mansfield High School in Louisiana.
Known for his high-flying dunks and ability to throw down lob passes in the open court, Woolridge played for the Bulls, Los Angeles Lakers, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Denver, Milwaukee and Detroit, and also coached the Los Angeles Sparks of the WNBA. He averaged 16.0 points in just over 28 minutes per game, quickly emerging as an offensive spark plug no matter if he was in the starting lineup or coming off the bench.
"I just love it when we g o up in the transition game, up and down the court, Magic (Johnson) looking for the open guy," Woolridge told Lakers broadcaster Chick Hearn shortly after joining the team in 1988. "I get excited when we start playing like that. That's the way I love playing."
He participated in one of the greatest slam dunk contests of all time in 1985, competing against Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins and Julius Erving, among others, and he averaged 22.9 points per game for the Bulls in 1984-85, the last player to lead Chicago in scoring before Jordan took over.
"He was a good person," said Timberwolves assistant T.R. Dunn, who played with Woolridge for one season in Denver. "He was a really good offensive player, athletic, could run the floor, score the basketball. He had a pretty solid career. Just a fun-loving, athletic guy. Just sad news."
Woolridge was suspended for violating the league's substance abuse policy in 1987, but returned to play eight more seasons in the league, his last with the Sixers in 1993-94. A scorer to the end, he averaged 12.7 points per game in 26 minutes during his final season.
"He was such an energetic-type, big player," said Wolves assistant Jack Sikma, who played against Woolridge. "He really was one of the early athletic-type players to come in the league, where we see a lot more of that now."
After ending his NBA career, Woolridge spent his final two seasons playing professionally in Italy.
One of Woolridge's defining moments came as a senior at Notre Dame in 1981, when he hit a buzzer-beating jumper to beat Ralph Sampson and No. 1 Virginia on national television, ending the mighty Cavaliers' 28-game winning streak. Woolridge averaged 10.6 points in 109 games at Notre Dame, helping the Fighting Irish reach the NCAA Tournament in each of his four seasons, including the Final Four as a freshman in 1978.
Woolridge is survived by his three children, Zachary, Renaldo and Tiana; by his par ents, Mattie and Larnceen; his sister, Dr. Vanessa Woolridge Duplessis; his brother-in-law, Darren Duplessis; and his nephew, Nigel Duplessis.

Chicago top cop to rookies: It's about integrity
CHICAGO — Dressed in uniform for the first time, newly appointed Chicago Police Supt. Jody Weis warned police graduates Wednesday to maintain the integrity needed to build community trust.
"Never compromise your integrity. Without integrity, your training from the academy, the uniform you wear and the star you hold is meaningless. ... Honesty and respect give you the support of the community. This is one of your best crime-fighting tools."
Wednesday, Weis presided over his first graduation ceremony. He used the opportunity to send a message to the rookies: Fighting crime and building community trust go hand in hand. You can't have one without the other.
"No law enforcement agency can succeed without accurate and timely intelligence, and you will learn that the members of the community are your best source of information," Weis said.
He advised the rookies to treat the residents they serve the way they would want a member of their own family to be treated by a police officer.
"If you are guided by that principle, you will never go wrong," he said.

I'm forever throwing paddling gear, dripping with saltwater and crusty with sand into the back of my wagon - the WeatherTech liner fits perfectly, catches all the gunk, and is super simple to wipe or hose clean. Does exactly what it should. I thought the lip might bend or fold, but so far it is keeping it's shape and adding protection. I am pleased.

Hi Adrian,
I'm 21, 5 ft 3" and have PCOS + exercise induced asthma. I weigh 197 lbs currently. I lost 10 lbs by walking on the treadmill for 30-40 mins. I try to eat between 1100-1300 cals every day. Ive recently started doing lunges, squats, etc.
However I feel like I'm not losing weight and my weight isn't budging.
I'm looking to lose 50 lbs. Will I be able to lose weight by just walking? How long will it take?
March 02, 2015
go here to lose 50
March 02, 2015
I am 23 5'6 and currently weigh 170lbs. I have been trying to lose about 20-30 pounds for several months now and have actually gained about 10 pounds since I started. I go to the gym daily and do cardio for 30-45 min and then do some weight training. I eat a small amount throughout the day (fruits, vegetables, a smoothie or protein bar, or sometimes a bagel) for dinner I almost always have salad, broccoli and some sort of vegetarian protein. I lost 30 pounds about a couple years ago by running daily and eating fruits, vegetables and protein but this time its not working and I'm gaining weight! Any suggestions? What am I doing wrong?
February 20, 2015
have you tracked your calorie intake?
February 20, 2015
Muscle weighs more than fat. So you could possibly have a combination of already remaining fat and muscle gain so you may actually gain weight before seeing results. Don't let those numbers discourage you; keep going! Also protein bars are LOADED with sugar. I'd stay away from them. Make sure when you eat nuts you do so in small quantities, they also can add up in calories if you are not careful. Try fruits and veggies like carrot sticks for a snack or maybe crackers and grapes. Boiled eggs make a great snack. How often do you drink water? Stay away from sugary drinks as well.

Hi, I'm a 20 year old female. I'm 5'10" and weigh 190 lbs. I've always been active and in great shape until I took a leave from college where I was a student athlete. I've put on a good 30 lbs in the year off. I've never had to diet or workout on my own to actually lose weight. I fear I am not doing enough and that I'm dieting wrong.
Daily I strive to consume around 1200 calories eating a healthy three meals. When I wake up I jog/run close to a mile and then continue my workout by doing some at home exercises such as: planks, bicycle kicks, seated leg raises, push ups, and seated body bridges. Is this enough?!

I'm 45 year old female. I have been working out for a year and the last 3 months I have worked at a even higher intensity 160-175bpm for an hour 3-5 times a week. I do not eat much. It's under 1200 calories. I'm 155pounds and 5'3
I eat a lot of vegetables and limit fruit and meat. No starch or sugars and drink plenty of water. My muscles sometime are so sore for a few days it's hard to walk up stairs. My legs are muscular and solid. I'd like to lose 35 pounds. The only time I seem to lose weight is when I starve myself and eat 200 calories or less a day.

how are you tracking caloried
January 16, 2015
Hi, I am 35 years old and I started with a gym and personal trainer on 5th Nov 2014. I weighed 171lbs at the time. In 26 days i lost 7.9lbs. Now i am 163lbs and my hieght is 160cms. I have been working out 6 days a week and following a healthy diet. I do 45 mins of cardio twice a week+ cardio strength thrice a week for 45 -60 mins and power yoga once a weekfor one hour. I also have cut out white sugar,white rice and processed junk food out of my diet. I eat lots of fruit and veges and chicken . I maintain a calorie track and aim at keeping it 1200 calories or below. Its been roughly a month and a half since all this but i feel like there is very slight difference interms of inch loss. Am i doing the correct thing? is there anything else i need to focus on or just be patient? Any suggestions?

Hi! I am 23, 5'3 and weigh 146lbs. Before my last pregnancy I was at 116, my daughter is now 8months and I've yet to lose the weight. So I began using the "Work Out with Jackie" dvd which includes three 20minute work outs focusing on the upper body, lower body, and core. I do this five times a week in the morning. Is this work out sufficient to meet my goal and if so, how long do you think it will take to reach my goal?
December 04, 2014
do her workouts follow the rules here
December 04, 2014
I'm a 27 year old female, about 5ft 4 weighing 170lbs. I'd like to lose 20 lbs at least over the next few months. I'm careful about what I eat when I can control it (i.e. when I get to cook for myself. I'm living with my in laws & they don't exactly eat balanced meals in the weekend. Especially sundays - think lasagne/ steak & fries). During the week though, I cook & normally have a protein shake for breakfast (Barn dad's fiber DX shake) or an eggwhite omelette. I get hungry often but can't stomach huge meals so eating small but often works for me. I then have sauted veggies & some kind of protein for lunch (tuna/ eggs/ chicken breast/ shrimp) & quinoa or a slice of wholemeal bread. Mid afternoon i have another shake or fruits or a slice of bread with peanut butter. I try to steer clear of carbs during the week because I end up having to eat them in the weekend. Dinner is usually veggies again & a portion of protein. I'm following the beachbody PIYO workout schedule & really end up drenched in sweat (20-45 min workouts, 6-7 days a week). If i'm not too tired/busy, I include another yoga workout in the evening (20-30/50 mins).
I've been doing PIYO for about a month now but haven't seen any changes. I do feel stronger & my back & legs seem more muscled but I don't notice much difference on the scale or in inches. Note: I've got multiple injuries - slipped discs in the neck, my knees rotate more than they should & i've twisted them badly once too many, torn ankle ligament that fills sore in certain yoga poses. So PIYO seemed like a good low impact alternative). Lately, I've been feeling drained and am thinking that I may have some hormonal imbalance (like adrenal fatigue - I've been under alot of stress for a long time & finally have a break from it to focus on myself). But can't be sure. I've started taking hydroxycut today and am hoping for some improvement.
Am I doing something wrong? Am I eating too little calories or over exercising? I'm supposed to eat about 1500 - 1680 calories apparently to lose weight & i'm using fitnesspal to track my calories & hardly reach 1200 calories everyday. What can I do to up my calorie intake?
I'd love to hear back from you! Thanks in advance!
December 02, 2014
your calorie intake is fine but go with a range of 1200-to-1500 to be safe and I dont know much about PIYO but give these 10 rules a try

hello, I'm 19 I'm a 6ft tall girl and I am at roughly 350. I have been at this same weight for a couple of years I occasionally lose a few pounds her or there but haven't been able to see good results. I've tried walking, weight training, biking and a mixture. I don't eat potatoes, pastas, rice or bread and I think I consume under 2000 calories a day. I just need to know what the best thing to shed fat would be combined with a better meal plan. I intend on starting to walk again but this time at least a mile a day. I was only before briskly walking for maybe 30-40 mins. I also see my clothes fitting different, more losely , but hardly see the scale change and that discourages me. I could use some advice....

I read the diet you recommended. I am 41, 5'4 and 189 pounds. I joined a gym with a personal trainer and they also help with nutrition. Before I joined I wasn't really eating breakfast, I would sometimes eat lunch and dinner was my biggest meal. they gave me RMR test and found that I should be eating at least 1700 calories. I have been eating most of my life below that, with no exercise. So now I have been eating breakfast, then a snack, lunch, then a snack, and then dinner. more small meals throughout the day. Im finding it hard to eat so many calories, especially on the days I work out when im supposed to eat even more calories to make up for what im burning. I am working out 4 days a week an hour each work out. mostly cardio, and maybe twice a week doing some strength training. I have been doing this for about 3 months now and have only lost 4 pounds. Im getting really discouraged. I really would have thought it should be more. Is there something I might be doing wrong, or something else I should try?
November 22, 2014
#1. dont eat back the calories you burn or dont make a concious effort to do so.
#2 . see this here but... you need to find a calorie intake that works best for you in terms of losing weight. I think 1700 should be good enough but I think your problem is that you're eating back your calories (stop tthat)
#3. see this, skip breakfast and lose weight much faster

Hello, i just saw this today and it seems like you really give people the tools to take charge of their bodies, congrats on that. I'm 16 weigh 150-5 lbs and 5'5.

I'm 22 years old 5"3 and weigh 155. After having my son I lost 30 pounds and fast. However I've lost nothing for almost 4 months. In fact I started running 2 miles a day and walking at a mixed inclines and speeds for another two 5 days a week. And i gained 2 pounds in the first two weeks. I eat 1500 calories a day and I keep my log on my fitness pal. I know muscle weighs more...but I'm frustrated. Am I doing something wrong?

You could be excercising too much. You need to push water drinking 64 oz a day at least,and try to space out your meals to eat 200-300 calories every 3-4 hours. And if you can handle it,lay off any excercise for about good 2 weeks. I was struggling with the same issue and my husband told me to stop exercising for 2 weeks and didn't listen until I injured myself.i was forced to stay at home and do nothing for 2 weeks. And guess what? Dropped 6 lbs eating same amt of calories and drinking plenty water.

Your body may have gotten used to your usual workout. You may want to switch it up and possibly add some 10 second sprints>30 second breaks also weight training could help as well if you want to lose weight. Generally speaking women don't bulk up from weight lifting like men since they usually have a fairly low testosterone level. Hope it helps.

For those of you on this site who are exercising, eating right, and watching their calorie intake. You need to know or remember that muscle weighs more than fat. As long as you are losing inches or toning up more, then their is nothing wrong with the fact the number on the scale isn't going down. You are excercing to feel better, and look better. So as long as you are still losing inches then the number doesn't matter, being healthy and maintaining your good habits of exercise, diet, and calorie intake should be continued and eventually you will see more weight loss if you don't then try increasing your exerciseing to the next level. Like instead of running just a mile run two, also would work with weights do extra reps or increase the amount of weights slowly. Don't strain your self by over doing it. try increasing them by five to ten pounds at a time. I hope this helpful for any of you who think they are at a stand still. Trust me I have been their trying to get weight off from having my children, it is hard but very rewarding outcome. Keep up the good work!

Hi Adrian! I've known/visited your site for about a year now but I have yet to actually use any techniques due to my busy schedule! But this summer (which for me last about 14 weeks)I have absolutely nothing to do so I plan on working out and eating healthier! I really don't care too much about how many pounds I lose but mainly inches! My main question is, is it possible to lose about 40-50 pounds within this very short period of time? I am currently 16 years old, 5'10 and 265 pounds. A lot of people don't believe I'm 265 pounds and tell me I "Carry my weight well", Which is why I mainly want to focus on inches. I also plan on continuing this work out/healthy eating regimen through the next school year!

I'm just now seeing this thread, but am reading it with a great deal of interest.
I am 24, eat under 2000 calories a day (usually 1600-1700) and work out four to five days a week with a mix of cardio and weight lifting. I weigh 255 pounds. When I started at the beginning of the year, I weighed 272. However, for the past month, I haven't been able to lose a single pound. I'm getting stronger, but not losing weight.
Now, most people tell me that the answer is more cardio. My problem is that I've always suffered from several health issues. I have a heart condition, asthma, bad knees, and a bad back, all of which have required treatment. I love using the rower machine and the cycle, but I can't do much running before I start having major breathing problems and other issues.
Is there anything that you would recommend for someone like me?

I'm not a specialist or anything...but I've read a plethora of information about weight loss, exercise, and healthy eating. I know this sounds silly, but your body sounds as if you might require more than 1200 calories a day. If you aren't in-taking enough good healthy calories then your body actually believes that your starving and it will hold on to every last ounce of fat that you want to get rid of.... The human body wasn't made for this day and age, but rather for times when food was sparse or required much more work to get. Do a bit of research in regards to how many calories you should be consuming for your age, weight, height, and activity level to maximize weight loss. Hope something I said helps... good luck Brandon!

Hello, I weighed 204 lbs a couple weeks ago. I started running in treadmill each time running more than 3 miles. Then I go to the sauna for 15 minutes and lastly do an workouts. I've been keeping a good diet and I've lost 7 lbs. My goal is to get to 175-185 lbs. Anything else I can do??? Or am I overdoing it? I go 5 times a week to the gym.
February 26, 2014
February 27, 2014
Thank you. I was told differently . I did not know your body already burns 2000. Calories a day. I've been trying to count calories. Eating a lot of greens with vinnegrettes and eating chicken. I'm only consuming water at the moment. Staying away from sodas and juice. What about to lose my handles on the side of my stomach? Will an an workout help or should I keep running?
February 27, 2014
see this but yes, to lose love handles or any fat on your body you need to simply keep losing weight all over your body

Hello Adrian, so my name is jordan and im 15yo. I wanna lose about 15-20pounds im about 145lb-150lb. Im a vegetarian (2years this past november) and im 5'3. Since i became a vegtarian i lose 30lb but now im not really losing much maybe 2-3lb but it goes right back to like 145-148 sometimes. So lately(like this last month) Ive been running for 20min-40min every day along with 3-5min of ab workout and push ups. Along with this i also am taking gym in school for an hour doing "heavywork outs" for an hour (lifting weights for 30min, running only for 20min, 10min of any heavy cardio). So doing all this how much weight will i lose? will i may lose more than i want, which is fine btw. And as a vegetarian i do still use some junk food but mostly i eat like stirfries and traditional asian cuisines. So shud i put something else in my diet? i dont get much iron or protein i can admit (maybe i get protein and iron in my lunch meal 5days out of the week but not during dinner or breakfast normally. i dont think egg really counts for that, or does it?)
January 12, 2014
are you a guy or a girl? either way you're not overweight and if you're a guy then you're definitely not overweight at all. the reason your fat loss has stalled is because you dont have much fat to lose

Hello, you had mentioned in the article about low, medium and high intensity workouts and you stated you can base the workout on your "sweat" test?
4. Do a Sweat Test
•Low intensity = No sweat & No problem
•Moderate-to-High intensity = Breaking a sweat. Sweat appears on the normal places on your shirt around your collar and armpits.
•High intensity = You're sweating profusely and it seems like you can ring a gallon of sweat from your shirt after exercising.
I have a question about that, I don't sweat. Not that I really want to but I don't get "drippy" sweat. I have wet spots around my face, within my chest area and other normal spots but I do not sweat. I feel like I am doing something wrong. I do not feel like I am dehydrated because I drink close to 100 oz. of water a day. I get all flushed and feel very hot.
please let me know if you can give me any insight as to what can help me figure the intensity level of my workouts?
November 12, 2013
as per the article on this page there are other ways to measure your workout level. although sweat is a good indicator your NOT sweating could be due to other factors such as room temp etc.
you can rev up your workout intensity with these rules

I am a 29yo female who is 5'9.5'' and 322.7lbs(down from 350). I want to loose weight but am really bad at sticking to exercising plans. I have gradually changed my diet over about 2 years and have only expierenced minimal amounts of weight loss. I currently drink protein shakes with low carbs in the morning as meal replacement and have noticed a difference from it compared to eating Jimmy Deam breakfast sandwiches and then I have a healthy snack and lunch. I find myself losing control at dinner time so now I just make salads with my favorite dressing that I am sure is not the best but I won't eat salads if I have to hock down that crappy basalmic crap. I really want to loose weight and I have a stationary bike that I ride on occasion. I just have a big problem with motivation....what can I do?!? My main problem area is my hips and thighs...i found some hip and ab exercises I can do laying down and am going to try it.
November 06, 2013
have a look at this diet and forget about the ab and hip exercises. when you lose weight you will lose all over and you can't target one area to lose fat from

Hello Adrian,
I am 21 years old, 5'10 and I weigh 190 pounds. I'm a college athlete. I play volleyball. But I want to lose weight. Im very confused about my macros. Proteins, carbs, and fats. I hear people say that Carbs are what make you gain weight. But I feel I need carbs in order to get through my workouts and practices. I'm a little nervous though that my carb intake is to high. The IIFYM.com site tells me that my carb intake should be 193 grams and protein should be 127 ish and fats should be 77grams. But then other sites tell me much lower in carbs and higher in protein.Was wondering if you would be able to help me or give me some kind of advice? Thank you for your time have a great day.

Hi, i'm 18 years old, and 170 pounds. I've been going to the gym 4-5 days a week, and doing 20-30 mins of cardiac each day, And lifting weights, for 3 months and i haven't seen any results? And i can't Get rid of my Stubborn belly fat Please HELP! :(

November 02, 2013
I have been jumping rope on and off for about 3 months. Well 2 week i was weighed and i found out i was 10lbs heavier than i thought i was (a whopping 195lbs on a 5'4 frame) so i decided i was not quitting nor starting over anymore and i have been consistent since that day 2 weeks ago. I don't know if i have lost any weight but i feel like i'm not doing enough. I jump rope for 5 minutes moderately then 5 minutes of stretching followed by 15-20 minutes (working my way up to 30 minutes) of a fast paced basic jump. So that about 20-25 minutes not including rest time (I basically do 20-25 reps of 1 minute with a 1 minute rest period in between each rep) 6 days out of the week. I'm not sure but i just feel like i'm not doing enough, like i need to add some more cardio or something. Am i just being paranoid? Should i keep doing what I'm doing and wait to weight myself to see if its working or do i add more because i feel like my body can handle more. Even though i feel winded during the workout and my muscle are on fire, I'm starting to recover faster after the workout and my heart seem to have gotten used to the feeling. Its still very much challenge but i feel like i can handle more! Should i add more or should i wait until I have lost some fat and its harder for my body to loose weight?

it could be your workout but what about your diet? how mush calories are you eating daily?

Hello, I'm 5'3 and weigh 190. I started out at 210 and habe been on a 1200 calorie diet and running on treadmill 6 days a week at 4 miles per hr for 20 to 30 min plus arm and leg workouts. What else can I do to get down to 150 lbs?

Hi. I am 54 5"7 woman, weigh 157. I work out 3-4 times a week real hard. I count my calories, and eat very healty. My question is why is it so hard to lose the belly fat. I run 30 min. zumba class, weights and other machines. It has taken me 2 years to lose 12 pounds. I really want to lose the belly and drop at least 10 lbs.

belly fat is usually the last to go but go here to speed things up
October 16, 2013
Hi, thanks for this great site. Quick question, I'm 33, 5'5 and 135 pounds. I have very good diet. I take 2 gym courses daily which one is cardio and the other is for toning. I'm looking to firm my bum, inner and outter tighs. I have a muscular bubble butt so I certainly don't need to make it bigger... I wanna feel and look great in a bikini on a trip starting in one month. Any suggestions, tips?
October 11, 2013
Hello Adrian!
First I want to say that I love the advice you give and how healthy all of your recommendations are. Every where I have asked for advice basically tells me to starve and workout to the point of not being able to walk. I've taken it upon myself to work out alone. I enjoy it more and I don't get embarrassed over how silly I look doing certain exercises.
For the last year or so, I have struggled with the fat around my sides, hips, and inner thighs. The top part of my body looks like I should weigh around 120 but everything else definitely doesn't. 2 weeks ago I stepped on the scale and it said 153. I about lost my mind. After having my son I weighed 138. So far I have been drinking nothing but water and have tried to keep my calorie intake under 1700 with strenuous high intensity workouts 5 days a week for a little over 30 minutes. I've been mocking crossfit without a lot of weights. I want to be toned again and would love to look how I did after my son. How often do you hear that? Lol. Please help! I want to know if I'm working out hard enough or if there is something else I need to do to see results.
October 09, 2013
Right now I weigh 147 and I am 5'7. Forgot that part :)
October 09, 2013
how are you tracking your calories? have you seen these tips
October 09, 2013
I've been tracking them using MyFitnessPal. It's helped quite a bit. I try to do change ups with my workouts, but there are areas that really need to be targeted for my PT test. I'm in the army and their workouts don't exactly make you sexy. They just make you proficient at a PT test.
October 10, 2013
okay i may be able to help you with the PT test. tell me what you have to do to pass.
is it like a certain amount of push-ups you have to do?
October 10, 2013
I'm 5'4, 188 pounds and 23 years old. Prior to this site and doctor consultation I was working out too much and eating too little. My new plan is to workout 3 days a week high intensity and 1 day of strength training. My diet is very healthy, I eat mostly unprocessed foods at now 1750 cal per day, While I appreciate videos for demonstration, this there a written list of exercises to do at each workout like workout 1 through 30. I'm overwhelmed with videos, I want to lose weight and keep curves but how do I mix and match workouts for weight loss, firm arms, a rounder butt, and good physical fitness? Do I have to chose just one at a time?

|TEMPERATURE COMPENSATED DRIVER FOR PULSED DIODE LIGHT SOURCE - A pulsed diode light source driver includes a variable output power supply, an output capacitor, a switchable linear current driver, a temperature sensor, a conditioning circuit, and a voltage monitor. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the capacitor while the voltage monitor circuit monitors the output voltage level. The conditioning circuit and the voltage monitor cooperatively control the output voltage of the variable output power supply, so that temperature-related changes in the characteristics of the capacitor are compensated for, and a constant current is maintained through the diode load over a desired range of temperature. The driver is suitable for laser diodes and light emitting diodes.

|Patent application number
|Silicon break over diode - A Break Over Diode ("BOD") device is a gate-less two terminal high power semiconductor switch in which transitions from a blocking state to a conducting state are triggered by a dV/dt pulse to the anode. The BOD device can be thought of as two cross-coupled PNP and NPN transistors, and includes both anode and cathode shorts which reduce the gain of the NPN and PNP transistors by shunting some current away from their bases directly to their emitters, thereby improving blocking. Moreover, the anode and cathode shorts in conjunction with the device blocking junction form PN diodes which are distributed throughout the bulk of the material and function as anti-parallel diodes to the base-emitter junctions of the PNP and NPN transistors, which enables the BOD device to handle a larger current reversal for a longer period of time. The P base layer may be made thin to decrease the voltage fall time from full blocking to full conduction, and the cathode and anode shorts may be provided in a honeycomb pattern.
