I was wondering the same thing about the elliptical trainer! My toes go numb too. I have to wiggle them (which for some reason takes alot of concentration of that contraption) to get the blood flowing to them.
I did 40 min on the Elliptical today and burned 512 calories. I also stayed on within my calories, with good food and drank my water for today! I'm doing so good! YOU ALL ARE DOING FABULOUS ALSO!!! The PlumpKins soooo ROCK!

Today I feel bloated. I'm trying to drink my tons of water but for some reason I have it in my head that if I don't feel hungry, with actual hunger pains that I'm not losing any weight and the water is counteracting me feeling hungry. Yeah, I've got issues.
Maybe I need to cut sodium out of my diet more. I have been monitoring my sodium intake but I don't know what to keep it below. I've been averaging about 1500mg of sodium a day, is that high? When I was pregnant with my son I was on a low sodium diet. I remember I ate a hot mama pickle and my legs swelled up so bad I couldn't walk.

as long as you are under 2300 mg of sodium a day (that's what the american heart association suggests) you're doing fine on sodium

HEhe..I think I am turning into a gym rat haha. I just got back from day 2 of the gym this week. I did the eliptical for 40 minutes and burned 510 calories. My heart rate is improving and I can actually get into the weightloss zone for heart rate. My first time *yay*.
Anyways. I'm still working on the water. I'm trying really hard. I've still got half to go.

I asked about the toe numbing thing and some said perhaps your shoes are too tight or small.

Hmmm
I don't know about that because sometimes I workout at home with no shoes and that happens to me. I just thought I was weird! Glad to know I'm not the only one!

Well, I'm a shoe-a-holic so if someone says its the shoes I'll go out and buy a new pair. But I've been using an elliptical trainer through several pairs of shoes and I've had the same problem. I thinks its more related to circulatory issues because once I start wiggling my toes around the feeling comes back pretty quick. But if you say I need new shoes I won't hesitate...LMAO!

Well thats good to know about the elliptical trainer, I guess its a normal then. Today I played badminton in class, AND went to the gym, thats a first for me, I went on the elliptical machine for 45 min again and I was sweating buckets, its a great workout and you dont really get out of breath! Ive been drinking all my water , its good to hear that everyone is doing well. So every one have a wonderful wednesday tomorrow

Hey guys... I too work out on the elliptical! We are truly an elliptical group eh?!
Anyway I found that if I wear my crocs my feet get really nice cushioning and I don't get as numb or sore in the toes...
Everyone knows what a croc is right? Or is that just a Canadian thing?
