New Beginning Gym class new location more centrally located

The "New Beginnings" gym class is the first gym class for the Post op Bariatric Patient. Our program has been in existence for 17 months. You had the surgery now complete the life style change. Exercise is an important phase for the transition for better health and success after weight loss surgery. Exercise with other Bariatric patients and share your experiences. No need to feel embarrassed our instructor modifies all exercises based on your individual abilities. You will be amazed at the progress you will make. Forget your past and plan a healthier future. Attack those bat wings, saggy asses and flabby tummies with exercise. Join us at the "New Beginnings" Gym class for Post Op Bariatric Patients on Thursday, February 2, 2006 at 7:30 pm at the CMS Fitness Center. The gym is in the lower level of the Omni Building. The CMS Fitness Center is located at 333 Earle Ovington Drive, Mitchell Field New York. Our class is conducted by Gina LoMonaco a Certified Fitness Instructor and former Olympic Athlete. If you want to see what our new gym looks like the web site is www.emswellness.com. Parking is in plentiful in the parking lot. If you need to use the lockers please bring a lock with you. Come and join Gina and the crew to help exercise those pounds away. If you have any questions please send me an e-mail at [email protected]. The owners of gym have given me free three day passes if you want to try the gym. For those that are not familiar with the gym this is a new state of the art gym. Bring your head sets so you can watch TV while you exercise. Lenny [email protected]

Hi Lenny.. My name is Lynda. I live in Northern Westchester, New York. Are there any classes in this area?...or even close by?..I am a member of Curves but I am not finding it helpful because i don't feel comfortable there...They have made me some kind of project and I would love to have the support of people who have gone through what I have. Thank you. Lynda 9/20/05 330 1/29/06 260

The class is located The CMS Fitness Center is located at 333 Earle Ovington Drive, Mitchell Field New York. It is near the Nassau Colesium off of Hempstead Turnpike. Let me know if you are interested in attending so that I can give up my phone number. My e-mail address is [email protected]. Lenny

Lynda, if you have a Planet Fitness (www.planetfitness.com) nearby, I really recommend them! They have an express circuit similar to curves, but they also have all the other equipment like the treadmills, ellipticals, free weights, bicycles, etc... plus free tanning. (It's only $19.95 a month too!) I go there everyday (I live in Dutchess County though) and I love it. Their motto is that they are a "judgement free zone" and they really live up to it! I know there is one in White Plains, but that's still about 30 minutes from you. There might be one closer to Northern Westchester, but I'm not sure. That other class sounds nice but it sounds like it's about an hour from you at least. I would never be able to keep up with an exercise program if I had to drive that far (especially if I had to drive through the traffic in NYC -- I used to live in NYC!!). Good luck hon and don't let anyone make you feel like a "project"!! Hugs, Vi www.sitekreator.com/ShrinkingViolet

Hi Linda, I do not know of any exercise classes for Post-ops in your area. I started this class 17 months ago. The classes are really great. No stigma when exercising with other post-ops. I was very lucky to find a health club that is willing to have an exercise class for us. The cost for our class is only $12.00. Much cheaper than hiring a personal trainer. Think about joining us. It is worth the drive! Good Luck, Lenny

So where exactly is your class?

Hi Lenny I saw your post and just wanted to say hello. Hope all is going well with you. Take care, Mary

I am doing well. Join our class it is a blast. In the spring time we will walking in Eisenhower Park again. Regards, Lenny
