Wink I conquered the elliptical!
A while ago I posted that I couldn't do the elliptical because I have no endurance. I decided to try it yesterday even though I knew I would be panting after 30secWell I DID IT!!! I was on the elliptical for 10mins at varying levels of resistance (0-3min @2,3-4min@3,4-5min@4......). I didn't even feel so bad at the end. Just had to share

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I agree with Kath. I was only able to do about 5 minutes at a time in the begining and I am now up to 30 minutes most days. It does get easier and like Kath says its a kick your butt workout but oh so worth it.

I hope to build up to 130 steps. That would be awesome. I only did 60 steps but I think that's pretty decent for the first time

Very well done. ITs gets a bit easier each time. I was amazed that each time I got back on it I was able to push myself just a bit more. Way to go and keep up the great work. The elliptical is a great workout.

I never did brave up enough to get on one of those monstrosities. Now I have knee issues and gave my health club membership to my son.

Bravo/Brava to anyone who can conquer the beast!

Judi....I can redefine knee issues for you.....I'm missing my ACL in one....arthritic in the other....YOU can do the eliptical with knee issues...it's actually low impact over a treadmill....start slow and build up!

Hang in there - your fitness level builds up slowly but it DOES build up.

You are doing really well! Congrats!!!
