Weigh Day: 188 lbs. None attributable to the Total Flex as I haven't used for a week because of the back. I've just been watching what I eat.
So I've lost 10 lbs and I can't see any difference at all. Maybe it was the haircut.

Today is weigh day. Came in at 190 lbs. Not sure if that's right as I don't feel or look any different It's a 4% weight loss so maybe it's right. Back is feeling pretty bad so the Total Flex has not been in use.
Speaking of the Total Flex, I received yesterday the new resistance bands. I was supposed to get the ones for the arm, chest etc exercises and they sent the leg ones instead. Same color. Not the same length, so they don't fit.

May 4, second post of the day
PLEASE READ
I just had a very pleasant surprise. I just received a call from Thane Direct apologizing for the lack of customer service. Seems my e-mails were initially sent (how?) to a new French Canadian rep, who is now under going some more customer service training. No explanation why the founder of Thane, Denise DuBerry, ignored me but that's understandable as she's in California and the rep who called me was in Toronto. Denise should change her last name to "Don't Berry".
Regarding the smell: The only thing we could think of was it needs a good time to air out. I couldn't wait that long so that's why I took it apart and washed it.
So I will be getting 2 red resistance bands free of charge. The Rep offered 2 extra packs of the gray, black and reds as well but that wasn't necessary. No sense in being greedy. That was very nice of her to do so.The Rep was very pleasant.
I suggested that the head rest extension be lengthened by 6 inches. If they do that the Total Flex would be good for 6 footers. I also suggested they add a section on their website to place parts orders for extra bands etc. If you used three reds on each side, you'd be in really good shape. I asked if the machine could indeed take 3 reds on each side and the answer was yes.
So 2 thumbs up for the Toronto Thane Direct Rep.
As PJ Katy would say "Case Closed".

Monday weigh day: I came in at 192 lbs. Need to do better than that. Back is out of whack again. I don't know it I mentioned it but I also changed to a healthier diet. No more pop, chips and I'm eating smaller portions at meals. If I get hungry I eat carrots or yogurt.
Regarding the TotalFlex and Thane Direct: No response to my e-mails so I sent them one more asking for compensation in the form of 2 packs of resistance bands. One band wasn't on a pulley (not visible because of protective cover) so it is now frayed/damaged. I took the cover off because the one side sounded different than the other. That's when I found the band was off the pulley. Also the machine had a noxious toxic smell so I needed to remove the upholstery and wash it.
