    Enjoyed and applauded the article on standing desks. I get standing up periodically at a sitting job but I found that due to my energy level sitting too long just didn’t happen. I got up and walked to talk to coworkers or my secretary instead of texting or calling. Sometimes a two minute walk to another desk gave me the relief from sitting and often helped me develop new ideas.

    Yes, but without “Thank you bites” how are we ever going to get our kids to take the 9,432 bits necessary for them to “like” a food? (10, ha!)

    Oh and hey, yeah, let’s quiz them! Maybe when we’re one on one–not at the family dinner table.

    I would have to agree that standing desks are overrated. I used to use one for close to a year and didn’t really feel it helped me in terms of weight loss or overall health.
