Went to the Gastro doctor only to find out that I still have the infection that put me in the hospital. I am on 2 antibiotics for it and am starting to feel better. I go back in a month and will go from there.
I have been looking into gyms and am doing a 5 day pass to Gold's gym in Willow Lawn I have gone yesterday and today so we will see what I think at the end of the week. If anyone has suggestion on different gyms please let me know. I tried a place like Curves and did not like it. I do not see how getting your heart rate up and then get it to a resting period and then get it up again would do any good. I like the use of the machines.
Good Luck to all having their surgeries whether it is WLS or plastic.

Great job!  I recommend either Golds Gym or The YMCA.  American Family is good, too with the variety, but they charge for the personal trainers.  I like the Y because they have so many other programs for the family...such as summer camp for the kids.  You get a discount on all of that stuff if you are a member.  Those are my suggesstions!  Keep up the good work!

Keep up the great work - you are doing FANTASTIC!!!!

Actually - they are giving you interval training which is really good.  The bad part is that you quickly outgrow it as you become stronger.

You like Gold's gym?  I about to bite the bullet and join myself, hubby and son.  This way we can all workout together - whcih they need to be doing as well.......

The one here is pretty good, has some cool classes and I really dig that cardio cinema room!

Thank you Jill. We have 2 different Gold's gyms and I am torn between both of them one has the cardio cinema room and the other does not but that is ok because the one that does not have it is cheaper and I can join for 1 dollar and get the month of August free and start paying the monthly fee in September. I went to a place that is like curves and did not like it because I do not see how getting your heart rate up and then lowering it and then raise it again all the way around to circle.  Yea I might but plan on working on different part on different days and varying it.
