Talking Wow moment

This wow moment isn't about losing weight or someone having a nice comment to say about me but It is a wow moment nonetheless. I went to the gym today and for the FIRST time ever, I did 25 min. of sprints on the treadmill!!!! I could never do that before. Now I just need to tackle the elliptical. Man I suck wind on that thing!

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.

That is great. You are doing a good job for 21 minites on the threadmill. I got an eliptical and I started out slow for about two weeks and after that I added a few minutes all the time and now I am up to 21 minutes and I do really good on it and I am surprised that my legs do not even get stiff on there. My soon to be daughter in law walked on it for about 10 minutes and then the next day she was wondering why her legs hurt her so bad and then figured it out that it was the eliptcal she walked on here. You will do great on the eliptical and just take it slow at the beginning and you will do great on that too. Good Job!!!!

the eliptical will KICK your butt....I'm up to 15 minutes at about 125 steps/minute...I get off the thing and can barely walk! Make sure you have music and cover up the clock with a towel....don't watch it and focus on the music....once you get thru about 3 or 4 songs, you should have 10-12 minutes under your belt! (I LOVE MY IPOD!!! LOL)
