An update on your encounters with the elliptical monster is long overdue.

Oi!

I'm up to seven minutes on the torture device before my knees burst into
flames. The rest of me is doing okay on the machine...no pains anywhere
else, no shortness of breath, et cetera. I am up to 45 minutes on our
treadmill. My wife sez if I keep at it, I'll work up my endurance on the
ellliptical, and she's right, because when I started three to four minutes
was all I could tolerate.

One morning while she was sleeping, I went for a walk on the beach and
walked for two and a half hours in one direction before turning around. I
couldn't have done that six months ago.

I've dropped 17 pounds in the last month.

There have been other positive changes I won't discuss here.


You must be on the low carb diet with that sort of weight loss in such a
short time.

If you are.......some warnings: Unless you keep up with that diet you will
start to gain the weight back when going back to eating normal foods. I
speak from personal experience. This is not to dismiss your weight
loss.......I congratulate you on your results.......losing weight is never
easy.

Congratulations and keep it up!



Actually, I am not on any specific diet. I'm just eating less and
exercising more. All the foods I am eating are normal. I am stuffing
myself with salads, though, and eating much smaller portions of almost
everything else.

That's the ticket! It works. Basically, eat whenever you want but change
what you eat.
