I have never lost weight this fast before. All except when I got the flu and lost 6 lbs. in a day but that doesn't count! I have made so many friends and can't thank my cheering section enough!!! |

we bought a stepper thingy just over a month ago to try and get in shape and lower cholestrol. i am now able to do just over 5 1/2 minutes on it, yet, my stamina has gone way up! but i have a loooong ways to go....
are you getting any exercise as well? and lots of vegetables??

I did belong to a gym once tried to do the eliptical, did three minutes and fell off the first day. I eventually worked my way up to 25 minutes on it then the treadmill for 15 then the circuit! Still did not lose much weight. Just gained strength. I feel a lot better and I am so happy for it. You keep up the good work too! |
