So I have a treadmill that I bought a while ago. I used it every now and then but I did not use it much because I was so big that it would make such an awful noise when I got on it and walked. So I instead lost all my weight so far by just walking a lot. Now that I am down a lot I decided to start using the treadmill more because it gets the heart rate up more and it seems to do less damage to my feet. To my happy surprise the treadmill no longer makes the noise. To make sure it was the weight that caused it before I got on holding two 35lbs kettle-bells. Not as much as I have lost but enough to start hearing the noise come back. I also had an issue with the belt sticking when I walked because I was so big, i would have to set the incline very high to get rid of the sticking belt.

Today I did 30 minutes on it with no sticking and no wheezing. My treadmill is no longer yelling at me "get off me fat *kitten*!"

    That is so awesome! Way to go! Serious kudos to you on your inspirational loss. I got a Sole shredmill some time ago of Craigslist, best investment I've made. :) Good luck!
