    Everyone's results are so motivating!

    My blood pressure is lower (though there is still room for improvement) and my resting heart rate went from around 90 down to the 60s.

    I REALLY hope I can get my resting heart rate down like that!!! Mines in the 85-95 range and has been for years and years.


    You'll get there! :smile:

    Let's see

    I sleep better (don't wake up thinking about if I died how the hell would they get me out of our house (true story)
    I have much more energy
    I can look at a bag of chips and say NO THANK YOU and mean it
    I can dance for an hour or longer without getting winded
    I dont worry that I won't fit in the airplane seat, amusement park ride or anywhere else with certain restrictions.
    I look at myself in the mirror and love what I see and I still have 60 lbs to lose
    I know this is not a diet but a change in my life
    I have confidence in the choices I make
    I know that I will continue this path for the rest of my life:heart::heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

    While I was not on any medication, since I started exercising:

    My blood pressure has gone down
    My cholestorol has gone down
    I have gained 11+lbs of muscle
    I have lost 7+lbs of fat
    My bone density has increased (didn't even know what this was until I had a test done!)

    Thanks for asking this! I hadn't really put it all together, and since I haven't lost "much" weight, this makes me feel great!

    Hiya, I had this pain in my upper outer right hand quandrant of my abdomen (where the liver/gall bladder is). I had this niggly discomfort there for ever and a day....took me ages to pluck up the nerve to visit my dr, I had already started this weight loss thingy. Anyway, long and short of it....EVERYTHING TOTALLY NIRMAL!!! and with weightloss the discomfort has totally gone :-)
