FitOrbit was a service which allowed you to connect with real life personal trainers. The service could be accessed via your iPhone/Android app or website, and had an online control panel with meal plans, goals, and workout plans created and updated by a personal trainer of your choice. The workout plans are arranged by your personal trainer to fit your needs and lifestyle, and you can alter them yourself or by talking to your online personal trainer.

Unfortunately we learned today that FitOrbit has closed. Here is the email which was sent out late September 2015 to all current subscribers of FitOrbit explaining the situation.

When many of us start a diet, we tend to think in quick fixes. Sometimes, doing a juice cleanse over a period of a few days helps us shed those 5 pounds, and other times adopting a new eating regimen, like the Paleo Diet, sounds more promising.

What many of us tend to forget after the first few pounds are shed and we’re feeling pretty good – is that that diet alone won’t provide the long-term weight loss results we’re after. The weight comes back on, and then we take on another diet.

Yes, adopting new eating habits is a great and healthy move, but it’s also good to adopt an exercise routine to go with your diet – that will help your weight loss stick.

We just finished up our detailed InkFarm review and it is now available online.

If you are looking for ink or toner cartridges for your printer, InkFarm has cartridges for over 2000 models of printers from all the major brands. They have been in business since 1999 and is a popular choice for small business.

To summarize, based on a number of criteria InkFarm.com received 4 out of 5 stars from our Editor. This is based on real world data including our own use of the service (they currently are our main ink supplier). We never have had any major problems with they and generally only have high praise but you can read more about it here.

We are also in the midst of writing a couple more reviews of different companies which supply similar products. Stay tuned for these as they should hopefully be up in a week or so.

The word "diet" can strike fear in many of us. Chances are you have tried a few in your life, and after the initial loss and your elation at stepping on the scale, the pounds begin to creep back on, leaving you feeling depressed and craving your old comfort foods.

While cleanses and juice diets might give you immediate results, the effects don't last. This is because we tend to go back to our old habits over time, and then repeat the cycle when we put on the pounds. This creates a viscious cycle of "always" being on a diet, and yet never being happy with the results.

Instead of looking to lose a few pounds, it's good to approach a new diet in a more helpful and healing way. Instead, look at your new diet as a lifestyle overhaul. I don't mean drastically changing what you eat or your daily routine - I'm talking about making small sustainable changes over a period of time.

Another study has weighed in on Weight Watchers and, once again, the popular diet program has come out on top.

Researchers led by Angela Marinilli Pinto, an assistant professor of psychology at Baruch College in New York City, pitted psychologist-led "behavioral weight loss" programs against a 48-week membership to Weight Watchers and found that the commercial weight loss program helped dieters shed more pounds and stick with their healthy new lifestyle longer.

141 overweight or obese men and women were randomly assigned to one of three groups:
