I broke out my elliptical machine aka machine of death. LOL I love that machine. I had to jump off from pain about a year and half ago. The elliptical let me eat well, drink on occasion . Due to pain, I could not work out for a year and half. I gained 30lbs. I deserved it. I watched it all pack on. Since summer bathing suit weather is months away, I thought I could start eating right and try working out again. I started with my stationary bike- boring..... so I took the elliptical out and felt great afterwards. I felt a twinge of pain only for a moment in the afternoon, but it went away. I don't think I can burn 700 calories like I use to, but all I can do is try! It is hard seeing your body not co-operating the way it use to be. I conquered it today!

    Awesome step!! Don't kill yourself the first week. (I have a tendency to go over board, then die out like a wet sparkler)
