Gum makes you swallow air, and if its sugar free, then the sugar alcohols can also cause bloating.

It's almost Sunday

I live off gum. I'd die without it.

AJ- I went to see the trainer today.. we went through some workout today.. I'm getting my nutriton plan from him on Monday though.. He got my Body Fat measurment and he said it was 18%
I don't think this is accurate, I'm going to ask him to check it again on monday when I get my Meal plans ..

Jodie- I chew lots of gum too! but I was asking about if it makes any difference when you chew gum a day before you'r BF test..

Jill- sometimes I chew a pack too!

$115

Damn, I'm not charging enough. Maybe it's time to raise prices

Sara - 18% is awsome. You should be pleased.

AJ- I liked the training for today.. but it wasn't heavy weight
the thing I liked about today's training, is it kept my heart rate up.. we did 3 sets of each workout and 3 minutes incline cardio and another 3 sets of other workout.. it was only 30 minutes.. but it felt good at the end

yes, I want him to check my Body fat on Monday, because I'm getting different body fat numbers from different trainers..

I know $115 for two sessions that I can use anytime this year..
I asked if I can get only 1 session for $55, but they start with a minimum of two sessions
Jodi- how much you charge?

AJ- I don't think I'm going to follow their workout routine.. today was just kinda a "demo" workout.. I might stick to the routine that Bear gave me ( a member of fitness&bodybuilding.com) which I will start posting
My main goal is nutrition first, workout is simple to figure out
