Guest guest Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Mornin' Ron.... I have a co-worker that uses a bow flex. He's 57 and has lost a lot of weight since he started so it does work. You are doing great and will be ready for surgery before you know it!! Keep your focus and don't give up on yourself. You are worth it ! Regards, Gordy > > Lilka, it's nice to see you here again. I'm so happy you are doing well and in good spirits. Hey, we just ordered our Bowflex home gym today! It should be here in 3 weeks. So I'll be working out on it in no time and the weight will just fall off me! Then I'll be on the other side with you all even faster... > > Ron > > Lilka's magic moments > > > I'm alive. I'm euphoric, I'm happy.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Hey Gordy! Ya know... I've always wanted a bowflex (or any other home gym type thing), but was afraid I'd spend a fortune on it and it would sit and collect dust. Truth is, it likely would have back then. But now, I'm truely ready for it. The room that we'll be putting it in is upstairs, meaning that I'll have to go up there to use it. As it is, I don't go upstairs now except to shower, and oh what a pain it has been until recently. Even with just the walking that I've been doing, I can already notice a real difference in my body. Eating less and getting more exercise than I've ever had in my life has made a world of difference so far and I can't even imagine what it'll be like once I get this thing and start using it. With any luck, I'll be ready for surgery by my birthday in June. Wouldn't that be a kick in the backside. So tell me Gordy, how goes things in your world? Are you pretty much healed up on the outside and getting around well? Are you doing well with your water and food and vitamins, etc.? I think I heard you have returned to work, right? And what type of work do you do? Okay, enough queries for now... take care and I hope all is well. Ron Lilka's magic moments> > > I'm alive. I'm euphoric, I'm happy.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Hi Ron.... I'm doing well. I've lost about 35# since surgery and I'm now drinking about 10-12 glasses of water a day without any problems. I'm still getting used to the new eating regimine but I have had no problem keeping food down. The hardest part is not being able to drink for an hour after taking food but it's becoming part of my new way of life and does get easier day by day. So far the only real problem I have encountered was being depressed. I found out that my meds were'nt being absorbed properly and my dosage was doubled to one pill am and one pill pm and now I'm back to my old self again. I walk 1-1/2 - 2 miles on my treadmill everyday and I have been trying to get back into the gym for two weeks but I have had a lot of problems getting up at 0345 as my sleep has been somewhat irregular since surgery. I made a promise to myself that no matter what I was going to start back tomorrow and I'm going to use you as my motivator. You're getting your bowflex and I'm really happy for you that you are determined to do whatever it takes to get those last pounds off so you can get to the other side. Like I said earlier...keep doing what you are doing and before you know it you will be there. No matter what don't give up on yourself because you are worth the effort. So Ron...are you going to check with your surgeon to see if he still wants you to lose 100# ?? Keep us posted and enjoy that new bowflex.
